ASA 5505/5510 Management Interface

[mariano.alfonso]

Hi,

Does anyone know a workaround to this limitation? (other than the "management-access" command for VPN connections)

Management access to an interface other than the one from which you entered the ASA is not supported. For example, if your management host is located on the outside interface, you can only initiate a management connection directly to the outside interface.

Thanks!

Hi,

There is no workaround for this, its by design.

Is there a way I can create an "Alias" for the interface through which I'm accesing the ASA so when I point my SSH access I don't aim for the real IP address of the interface?

Thanks!

Hi,

If you need  to ssh for XYZ  (name) instead of real IP, you need to make a mapping on your DNS server. ASA will not do this mapping or resolution.

Thanks,
