Hello all,
I am working on configuring an ASA 5510. I'm coming into its configuration with essentially no Cisco CLI experience, but have been successful in getting the device upgraded to 8.3, getting the interfaces configured, and learning the basics of using objects in extended ACLs. However, I am scratching my head with proceeding with the NATing and ACLs, and have some questions.
Essentially, on the old WatchGuard box I am going to be replacing with the 5510 I have a handful of policies that logically are pretty easy; such as permit any port 21 traffic to go from the Internal interface to External-1, or permit all traffic from the Internal interface to go out on External-1. What I'm having issues with is wrapping my mind around actually putting that in place, I have some experience working with Monowall and PFSense firewalls via the GUI, but I'm a CLI novice.
Can anyone point me towards some resources that I might be able to better learn from? I would ideally like some sample configurations to look off of, as though I've been following along in the ASA 8.3 CLI documentation it seems like it is really lacking in actual samples, and online I seem to find more people going back and forth on the consensus of the proper way of doing things in 8.3 more so than hard information.
