Is there a way to configure a ASA 5500 firewall so that when i access the firewall via SSH, my user is in privileged exec mode immediately after i have entered the login credentials? So no need to enter "enable" anymore. I know how to do that with a router but couldn't figure it out for the ASA. Any ideas?
Thanks & best regards

Being a security device, this feature is not available on ASA/PIX. Unlike in IOS, using AAA we cannot go directly to privileged exec mode.

That is not correct. You can do the following:
conf t
username cisco password cEYEsc00 privilege 15
aaa authorization exec LOCAL auto-enable
exit
This will get you into enable mode when you ssh to it.

Thanks, you are right.
On the other hand, I am looking how to chance the default port 22 to a different value on an ASA. I always do it on IOS, but I couldn't find it for ASA so far.
Best.
