Hi to all,
I have to load FWSM 3.1.(4) service module into CSM 3.01., but the max software release supported is 2.3.(1).
Where I can find the patch?
Thanks
Leonardo

CVDM is embedded software in the Cat6500, but the point is you can't use it to manage the FWSM. You have to add the FWSM as a standalone device into CSM without going through the initial switch discovery.

See this reply:
You should be able to get the FWSM into CSM 3.0.1 by following those steps. The only "patch" beyond that is CSM 3.1 which is available (provided you have a contract) from http://www.cisco.com/upgrade/ .

This CVDM is an embedded software in cat6500?
How does it work? With this embedded software I can load my 3.1.4 FWSM into Cisco Security Manager 3.01?
Tks

Hi Joe or anybody else ;),
I inserted stand alone FWSM 3.1.(4) module into CSM 3.0.1.
During discover policy, it gives me the error about version unsupported. You told me, that I can leave this error, using CSM 3.1.
the error...
----------------------------------------
Description
There is a major change on device FWSM-ROMA.
The target type changed.
The version on device is: 3.1(4), platform: Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series Firewall Services Module, mode: ROUTER, multiplicity: SINGLE, target type: TARGET.UNDEFINED.
The version in CSM database is: 2.3(1), platform: Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series Firewall Services Module, mode: ROUTER, multiplicity: SINGLE, target type: TARGET.FWSM.L3.
Operation stop
Action
Please verify running device version with the version in Cisco Security Manager database
Recreate device in Cisco Security Manager Database if needed
------------------------------------------
The CSM3.01 Supported devices document says about that:
Supported Software
.........
Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series Firewall Services Module?Firewall Services Module Software
Release 2.2, 2.3, and 3.1.
.......
The error description says that:
....The version in CSM database is: 2.3(1),...
So, if I can manage 3.1, why the error description says that in the database is stored the 2.3.(1)?

I don't currently have a FWSM running 3.1 to test, so I am going off old service request data that indicates this should work per my previous instructions. However, if you're still having problems, you might try either asking on Security > Firewalling board, or moving to CSM 3.1 Professional which has full support.
