Cisco ASA Documentation by Release
This section lists the ASA series documentation by release. This section includes the CLI and GUI
documentation for each version.
Note
ASDM 6.0 and later supports many ASA versions. We include the ASDM documentation with the ASA
version when that version of ASDM was introduced; for example 8.4/6.4, 8.3/6.3, and so on. The ASDM
documentation and online help includes all of the latest features supported by the ASA. If you are running
an older version of ASA software, the documentation might include features that are not supported in your
version. Similarly, if a feature was added into a maintenance release for an older ASA version, then the
ASDM documentation includes the new feature even though that feature might not be available in all later
ASA releases. Please refer to the feature history table for each configuration guide chapter to determine
when features were added. For the minimum supported version of ASDM for each ASA version, see Cisco
ASA Compatibility.

Cisco Context Directory Agent
The Cisco Context Directory Agent runs as a separate application from the ASA. The Cisco Context Directory
Agent is used as part of the Identity Firewall feature, which was released in the ASA 8.4 release.
The Identity Firewall feature provides more granular access control based on user identities. You can configure
access control and security policies based on user names and groups rather than through source IP addresses.
The ASA applies the security policies based on an association of IP addresses to Windows Active Directory
login information and reports events based on the mapped user names instead of network IP addresses.
The Identity Firewall integrates with Windows Active Directory in conjunction with an external Context
Directory Agent that provides the actual identity mapping. The ASA uses Windows Active Directory as the
source to retrieve the current user identity information for specific IP addresses.
