yup you lose alot in mutli context mode such as vpn, and routing protocols.
It basically just becomes a true stateful firewall.

I was in ASA class just last week and asked about this exact issue.

I was told that at this time you cannot do the IPSec VPN in Multiple
context mode (due to the ASA not being able to keep track of the SA). This is a software issue that Cisco is working on and has in test at this time.
No timeframe for release though.

Group,



I am stuck like chuck. We are unable to activate a VPN in one of the virtual firewall context. Under the crypto commands, none
of the IP-sec are available.  Any help on this would be appreciated.
Version we running is 8.0(4)


Isn't VPN only available in single-context mode?
