New Features in Version 8.4(5)

Released: October 31, 2012

Table 1-2

lists the new features for ASA interim Version 8.4(5)/ASDM Version 7.0(2).

Support for sub-range of
LDAP search results

When an LDAP search results in an attribute with a large number of values, depending on the
server configuration, it might return a sub-range of the values and expect the ASA to initiate
additional queries for the remaining value ranges. The ASA now makes multiple queries for
the remaining ranges, and combines the responses into a complete array of attribute values.

Also available in Version 8.4(3).

Troubleshooting Features

Regular expression
matching for the show asp
table classifier
and show
asp table filter
commands

You can now enter the show asp table classifier and show asp table filter commands with a
regular expression to filter output.

We modified the following commands: show asp table classifier match regex, show asp table
filter match
regex.

Also available in Version 8.4(3).
