What is one benefit of using ASDM compared to using the CLI to configure the Cisco ASA?

  • It does not require any initial device configuration.
  • It hides the complexity of security commands.
  • ASDM provides increased configuration security.
  • It does not require a remote connection to a Cisco device.

Explanation: Cisco ASDM facilitates configuration of Cisco ASAs because it hides the complexity of the configuration commands. The ASA is required to have a minimum configuration before accessing the ASDM. ASDM is accessed using a web browser connection or local application which provides no more security than being consoled into the device.
