I think calling it a web interface is misleading - it's an application you
run on your PC that you download over HTTP from the router first. Nobody
would call [say] Office 2007 a web application because it's possible to
download it from Microsoft's website before running it.

Vim, dammit; if it's going to be 'updated' then it will need syntax
highlighting and regexps at least.

ASDM is better IMHO than SDM. Cisco would do better by letting SDM die [if
not supporting current versions of Java isn't already letting it die] and
improving ASDM so it supports IOS. The feature sets are so close anyway [was
pleasantly surprised to see EIGRP and Netflow on ASAs now] that it couldn't
be that hard.

Thanks guys for proving to me that Cisco is stuck in the last
centuary. I have dumped the box, CD etc into the round filling
cabinet! I don't know how old windows is but I do remember the first
3.1 interface and being a little sad that the DOS command line was
being dumbed down. But I grew with it. Why can't Cisco wake up and
move on - arrogant bunch of ludite nerds. Because they no longer fit
in the world of IT I have dropped them entirely - this must be the
most satisfying decision I have made for years!!!
