ASA IOS Question

higherho

Hi all,

I am trying to copy over the latest ASA 5510 IOS to our firewall but it keeps giving me errors around 16.7 meg. I do not have a GIG of ram that they request you to have (I think its a requirement) And currently I have 8.32 on the ASA now. I have enough memory in disk0: to hold the IOS so that's not an issue either.

The ASA has 256Megs of ram on it.

Use a different TFTP server or transfer the image via FTP/USB/whatever. Some buggy TFTP implementations can only do a maximum of 16MB which is 16777216 bytes.

Yea I was about to post this today when I came home from work. Just got a USB and uploaded the image that way and it worked. Darn 3COM TFTP failed me!

Good thing is we are replacing our PIX with another ASA 5510! Cannot wait for that


Thank you for the response

You ever use tftpd32? It has NEVER failed me. EVER! I have upgraded 6513's, all sorts of switches, routers, and all kind of ASA's and never had an issue. You should give it a try. Works like a charm!

TFTPD32 : an opensource IPv6 ready TFTP server/service for windows : TFTP server
