The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Why cant I connect to my new Cisco ASA5510 with ASDM?

Asked by Eric_Price in Networking Hardware Firewalls, Cisco PIX Firewall

Tags: ASDm, cisco ASA

I received two new Cisco ASA 5510s yesterday to replace aging WAN equipment at our facilities. They both have the exact same problem.

Following the directions I connected the ASA and my laptop to a switch with known good patch cables and assigned my laptop a 192.168.1.2 address. When I tried to launch the ASDM though, regardless of whether I use the java version or the version it installed the first time I connected, it ultimately tells me it cant read the configuration from the equipment, and to check my connection.

I followed some advice on here, and used the good old CLI to manually set the interface names and addresses. To keep from having a conflict with the IP address I need to use on the LAN port I had to disable the DHCP pool and assign a different class C to the management port.

Despite doing that, I still can not connect and use the ASDM software. Is there something in my config thats preventing this from working?The sh run config is below.

Diagnostically...
From a command prompt I can ping my IP and the IP of the management interface.
From a console into the ASA I can ping all the IP addresses (WAN, LAN, Management, laptop) successfully.
