access ASDM on cisco asa 5505

Good Day,

I have asa 5505 on which i would like to access asdm. when i try https://x.x.x.x , it doesnt launch asdm , however it goes and prompts me to enter username and password

i can do telnet to asa from one of the server machines which i have allowed on the asa. login to enable mode and do whatever changes required.

i have http enable
http 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 inside

on the asa , when i do sh run.

apart from that not sure what else to. it used to work before. appreciate assistance.

while its prompting username password, you need to provide username and password.

Once the password is right, you can see an option to download ASDM

there is no user. all i get is prompt for passwords and thats it. last time , we had disabled no transport input all. not sure if that has got anything to do with it,tried creating a user with priv 15 level. it still doesnt login and shows invalid login .

thanks

all the required options are configured on the ASA. the config looks OK

while you type https://<asa inside ip>. username "user" should accept

I think you missed the asdm image

you need this one:

asdm image disk0:/asdm-731-101.bin

Open in new window

please replece the image name to your device asdm image. you can find with dir command:

asa-hess3# dir
144    -rwx  19884888     11:03:40 Nov 19 2014  asdm-731-101.bin
