lists the new features for ASA Version 8.2(4.1).
Note
We recommend that you upgrade to a Cisco.com-posted interim release only if you have a specific
problem that it resolves. If you decide to run an interim release in a production environment, keep in
mind that only targeted testing is performed on interim releases. Interim releases are fully supported by
Cisco TAC and will remain on the download site only until the next maintenance release is available. If
you choose to run an interim release, we strongly encourage you to upgrade to a fully-tested maintenance
or feature release when it becomes available. We will document interim release features at the time of
the next maintenance or feature release. For a list of resolved caveats for each interim release, see the
Cisco ASA Interim Release Notes available on the Cisco.com software download site.

SSL SHA-2 digital
signature
signature
This release supports the use of SHA-2 compliant signature algorithms to authenticate SSL VPN
connections that use digital certificates. Our support for SHA-2 includes all three hash sizes:
SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512. SHA-2 requires AnyConnect 2.5.1 or later (2.5.2 or later
recommended). This release does not support SHA-2 for other uses or products. This feature does
not involve configuration changes. Caution: To support failover of SHA-2 connections, the standby
ASA must be running the same image. To support this feature, we added the Signature Algorithm
field to the show crypto ca certificate command to identify the digest algorithm used when
generating the signature.
