New ASDM Features
Note For supported platform features, see the “New Features by Platform Release” section on page 2-1.
Table 1-3 lists the new features for ASDM Version 6.1(5).
Multiple ASDM Session Support
ASDM allows multiple PCs or workstations to each have one browser session open with the same
adaptive security appliance software. A single adaptive security appliance can support up to five
concurrent ASDM sessions in single, routed mode. Only one session per browser per PC or workstation
is supported for a specified adaptive security appliance. In multiple context mode, five concurrent
ASDM sessions are supported per context, up to a maximum of 32 total connections for each adaptive
security appliance.
Unsupported Commands
ASDM supports almost all commands available for the adaptive security appliance, but ASDM ignores
some commands in an existing configuration. Most of these commands can remain in your configuration;
see Tools > Show Commands Ignored by ASDM on Device for more information.
This section includes the following topics:
• Ignored and View-Only Commands, page 1-4
• Effects of Unsupported Commands, page 1-5
• Discontinuous Subnet Masks Not Supported, page 1-6
• Interactive User Commands Not Supported by the ASDM CLI Tool, page 1-6
Ignored and View-Only Commands
Table 1-4 lists commands that ASDM supports in the configuration when added through the CLI, but that
cannot be added or edited in ASDM. If ASDM ignores the command, it does not appear in the ASDM
GUI at all. If the command is view-only, then it appears in the GUI, but you cannot edit it.
