[johnlloyd_13]

hi,

just a sanity check here, i can directly upgrade to 9.7(1.4) from 9.4(2)11 on my ASA 5545 right?

see 9.7.x release notes upgrade path below.

also, has anyone used/terminate a VTI on an ASA? any caveats i should know of?

You can upgrade directly.

I have not used a VTI on an ASA yet,

Hi John,

Yes, you can upgrade directly from 9.4.2.11 to 9.7.1.4.

Regarding the caveats for VTI on ASA, I was not able to find any major caveats except some enhancements for support of EIGRP, multicast traffic and OSPF.

Aditya
