Configuring HTTPS Access for ASDM

To use ASDM, you need to enable the HTTPS server, and allow HTTPS connections to the ASA. HTTPS
access is enabled as part of the factory default configuration or when you use the setup command. This
section describes how to manually configure ASDM access.

To configure HTTPS access for ASDM, perform the following steps:

Detailed Steps

Examples

The following example shows how to enable the HTTPS server and let a host on the inside interface with
an address of 192.168.1.2 access ASDM:

hostname(config)# http server enable

hostname(config)# http 192.168.1.2 255.255.255.255 inside

The following example shows how to allow all users on the 192.168.3.0 network to access ASDM on the
inside interface:

hostname(config)# http 192.168.3.0 255.255.255.0 inside
