Replacing my current Cisco ASA

[ejdrijin1]

Hi,

I currently have 1 Cisco ASA 5510 installed. I would like to replace this ASA by a new one (5515-x). I already bought this ASA. 

What is the best procedure to do this? 

Is there any tips or precautions I need to take?

Also I have VPN licenses installed on my current ASA. Is it difficult to transfer them to my new one?

I would like some guidance how I can proceed without causing much downtime.

Thanks.

Hi,

It should not be that too difficult :).

You just need to make sure that the config part is taken care of.

If you are on one of the recent codes on the ASA 5510, config would be identical on ASA-5515-x as well.

For license transfer you can contact licensing@cisco.com.

Let me know if you have any queries on this.

Regards,

Aditya
