Release Notes for Cisco ASDM, Version 6.4(x)

Upgrading the Software

Upgrading the Operating System and ASDM Images

This section describes how to install the ASDM and operating system (OS) images.

We recommend that you upgrade the ASDM image before the OS image. ASDM is backward
compatible, so you can upgrade the OS using the new ASDM; however, you cannot use an old ASDM
image with a new OS.

Note

If the ASA is running Version 8.0 or later, then you can upgrade to the latest version of ASDM (and
disconnect and reconnect to start running it) before upgrading the OS.

If the ASA is running a version earlier than 8.0, then use the already installed version of ASDM to
upgrade both the OS and ASDM to the latest versions, and then reload.

This section includes the following topics:

•

Upgrading Using ASDM 6.3 or Later, page 35

•

Upgrading Using ASDM 6.0 Through ASDM 6.2, page 35

Upgrading Using ASDM 5.2 or Earlier, page 36
