[c-nsp] Secondary IP addresses on ASA

[Richard Morrell]

Hi,

We've been investigating using ASA as a firewall in our network.  One
of the issues with it, is that it does not appear to be able to handle
secondary IP addresses.   Here is the relevant Cisco article regarding
the PIX which I believe applies to the ASA:

and here is the workaround that some people appear to be using:

Could someone from Cisco comment on if there are any plans to improve
this in the future?

Alternatively, are there people out there using the workaround?  Have
you seen any issues with it?
(don't mind replies off-list for this one if you'd prefer)

Cheers,
