hi Jeremy,

I read one of your post where you mentioned that you were able to run ASA7 and working on ASA8 could you please put down step by step guide as how to do that.

Also, everytime when i drag and drop my PIX firewall GNS3 seem to get a new one e.g. the first one is FW0 but when try to drag pix again it start with fw1 , can you tell me how to get fw0 everytime as i dont want to go through activation process every time

thanks

Hi,

I will soon post a script that automatically convert an ASA7 image to be used with GNS3.

Hey Jermy,

Can u kindly let me know what will be the prerequisite for Using ASA with GNS3.

I am planning to give my SNPA exam next month so i really need this.

your support will be highly appreciated.

Hi its no difference than using the PIX in GNS3. If you dont know how to configure a PIX or any routers in GNS3, you should read the tutorials and documentation.

Thanks for the response

I know how to configure pix in GNS3, for pix i am using PEMU, which is in built-in for GNS3, but for ASA we need to use QEMU, i read yesterday that we have something call Cisco Image Unpacker software, i tried using that but end up with nothing, i wanna know STEPS to install and configure Image Unpacker software. and what are the prerequisite for that software.

Any help will be appreciated.

Hi,

With an ASA v8 image you need Qemu. If you want to use an ASA v7 image then you can use GNS3.

To use an ASA 7 image with GNS3, you have to unpack it with Cisco image unpacker.

On Linux:



On Windows:



Then you can use asa724-k8.bin.unpacked in GNS3 as a PIX image.
