Add-on to manage ASA?

Hi, I'm using your software on a daily basis and it's the most useful thing I've ever adopted to manage remote "stuff" :D

Is there any chance to have an add-on for an entry that can launch the ASDM-IDM (a java appliance that manages Cisco ASA)?

Thanks!

Hi,

This has already been asked but we haven't found a way to integrate it. Do you have an idea?

as a starting point, as suggested here (https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/2073337) we could execute the remote java binary.

The java binary called is javaws.exe, with the argument "https://<hostname>/admin/public/asdm.jnlp"

No idea on how to pass credentials, anyway :/

We already support Java Web Start in the application. Maybe you could configure an Auto typing macro in the Event tab page. This macro could send the credentials if this application prompt for it.

Creating a RDM addin that would allow the launch of Cisco's ASDM program from within RDM would be great idea. Very useful.

Have you tried the Java Web Start add-on?

hi, we solve it by doing following steps:

create entry "command line"

run: javaws "https://<hostname>/admin/public/asdm.jnlp"

on events-tab:

after connection

activate: execute automatically

enter following macro: {WINDOW:ASDM-IDM}{BS}$USERNAME${TAB}$PASSWORD${ENTER}

We store Username & Password in Credential-Entry. You can create with New-Entry, Username/Password

since 8.0.12.0 it works really great, past versions of RDM had Problem with Vars

Hi SMG,

If i'm try to create a new command line entry, i only have three tabs 'General' 'More' 'Advanced' en not the 'event tab'

Or are you using the 'java web start entry' because there all the tabs are available.

i'm using version 8.0.12.0 with the java web start addon installed

Hi,

Thank you for the print screen. You haven't used the right command line. You used the Macro/Script/Tool one and not the one linked to a session.
