michael.m.williams · ‎07-22-2008

I have been trying to config my new ASA 5505 for 2 days. I decided to use statup wizard and every time I am finished and tell it to send the config a get this error.

ASDM did not get a responce from the ASA in the last 60 seconds. Please check the configuration and your connection and then try again by clicking refresh.

here is my config.

hostname ITSCR3AS01

domain-name XXXXXXXXXx

switchport access vlan 200

Ok, you can verify this easily.

Add both the IP's on your PC's NIC

- 192.x.1.20

- xx.xx.180.20

Then use the wizard.

Is your PC (IP from where you are connecting via ASDM) on the same IP subnet as the inside interface (XX.XX.180.0) ?

michael.m.williams · ‎07-22-2008

No. The ASA comes configures with a default of 192.168.1.1 IP so I am in the same subnet with 192.168.1.20 (static) so I can start the startup wizard.

So, when the ASA stops responding , change the IP of the PC to a suppose XX.XX.180.20 (from ASA inside IP subnet).

Then try to connect again and this time to XX.XX.180.1 (FW inside IP)

It never write my configs to the ASA. It gives me this error window.

ASDM did not get a responce from the ASA in the last 60 seconds. Please check the configuration and your connection and then try again by clicking refresh.
