You can do link aggregation but only on a 5510 or higher and not (as far as I can see) with multpile publics:<br />

Hi all,<br />
i tried to reconfigure a CISCO ASA5505 to attach a second DSL as a separate internet link, to use for VPN alternate access.<br />
I created a new interface but i can't use it with rules or ACL 'cause of a license restriction:<br />
<br />

<pre><code id="code-10-27663516-1">ciscoasa(config)# interface Vlan 104
ciscoasa(config-if)# description VPN alternate access
ciscoasa(config-if)# nameif out2
ERROR: This license does not allow configuring more than 2 interfaces with
nameif and without a &quot;no forward&quot; command on this interface or on 1 interface(s)
with nameif already configured.
ciscoasa(config-if)#</code></pre>
<br />
<br />
<br />
So, my questions are:<br />
how can i bypass this?<br />
Can I use both the assigned public IPs, aggregating the 2 links for LB in download, to connect to the VPN service?<br />
Where's the best and fastest documentation to do that?<br />
<br />
<br />
Thank you!

CISCO ASA 5505 internet link aggregation can bypass license restrictions?

Cisco PIX is a dedicated hardware firewall appliance; the Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) is a firewall and anti-malware security appliance that provides unified threat management and protection the PIX does not. Other Cisco devices and systems include routers, switches, storage networking, wireless and the software and hardware for PIX Firewall Manager (PFM), PIX Device Manager (PDM) and Adaptive Security Device Manager (ASDM).

Cisco

Hardware-based firewalls provide more sophisticated protection for inbound and outbound traffic than the simple Windows software firewall or the basic NAT firewalls found in routers. These devices implement techniques such as stateful packet inspection, deep packet inspection, and content filtering; and may include built-in antivirus and anti-malware protection.

Hardware Firewalls

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.
