Hi,

To my understanding any ASA (except ASA5505) from 8.4(1) onwards can use EthernetChannel

Quote from Cisco document

Interface Features

EtherChannel support (ASA 5510 and higher)

You can configure up to 48 802.3ad EtherChannels of eight active interfaces each.

Note You cannot use interfaces on the 4GE SSM, including the integrated 4GE SSM in slot 1 on the ASA 5550, as part of an EtherChannel.

We introduced the following commands: channel-group, lacp port-priority, interface port-channel, lacp max-bundle, port-channel min-bundle, port-channel load-balance, lacp system-priority, clear lacp counters, show lacp, show port-channel.

We introduced or modified the following screens:

Configuration > Device Setup > Interfaces

Configuration > Device Setup > Interfaces > Add/Edit EtherChannel Interface

Configuration > Device Setup > Interfaces > Add/Edit Interface

Configuration > Device Setup > EtherChannel

Here is also a link to the "interface" command for Etherchannel
