RE: asa 8.2 to 8.3 config conversion

Might want to try this one -

http://www.tunnelsup.com/nat-converter

that should get you into 8.3+, but if you're planning on running 9.x, you may want to run 8.4 first and then switch to 9.x and let any other conversions take place there.

Also, if you do use the ASA to upgrade from 8.2 to 8.3 and you're running any remote access VPN's, be prepared for them to break. It's usually an out of order NAT and a quick fix.

Sure np.

One little observation though - the FWSM does not use 8.x software release train though .... 8.x is exclusive to ASA. FWSM latest train stops on 4.x.

Back to your query though; you might want to try converting FWSM-> ASA pre
8.3 -> ASA 8.3+

Would that work?
