Cisco ASA Series ASDM Configuration Guide
Chapter 1 Configuring the Switch for Use with the ASA Services Module
Using the MSFC as a Directly Connected Router
For transparent firewalls in multiple context mode, you need to use multiple SVIs because each context
requires a unique VLAN on its outside interface (see Figure 1-3). You might also choose to use multiple
SVIs in routed mode so that you do not have to share a single VLAN for the outside interface.
Figure 1-3 Multiple SVIs in Multiple Context Mode
