newbie on pix 525 - PDM access

ok so i am a newbie to the pix 525 and need some guidance.  

i was looking to access the PDM but i find that it isn't the same as accessing the PDM on a 506e.  am i right? i found some sites out there that say you can use the ASDM if so, i don't want to screw up my pix by uploading something that isn't compatible.

attached is my ocnfig

thanks

You need the ASDM on a version 7 firewall NOT the PDM!! http://www.petenetlive.com/KB/Article/0000075.htm
Plus 7.2(2) is old update the OS (at which time you can install the ASDM see instructions on my website here http://www.petenetlive.com/KB/Article/0000074.htm

However if you don't have a support contract you cant download the images - so issue a

show flash
or
show disk0

command and see if you have an asdm image already in there

it will look like

asdm-xxx.bin <----xxx will be three numbers - which is the version

If its there

log in go to enable mode > so to conf t mode and issue the following commands

http server enable
http 0 0 inside
asdm image flash:/asdm-xxx.bin   <--- replace with the three numbers in yours

Pete
note http 0 0  inside will allow ASDM access for everyone! to lock it down see http://www.petenetlive.com/KB/Article/0000173.htm

Thats just the OS :(You need the ASDM image - if you dont   have a valid support contract you are a bit stuck - unless you have the CD that came with the firewall that has a copy on it :)
ok - what version of ASDM should i request?  i want to make sure that i get the correct one.

i purchased this pix and dont have the CD; however, i do have access to the asdm files.  there a re a few versions and i want to make sure that i get the correct one.  can you assist?
