    Hi,

    I have a sh run file, starts with this...

    sh run
    : Saved
    :
    FWSM Version 3.1(7)

    I use File-Import, browse to file, and the UI says "Import cofiguration file from..."  with the progress bar at 0%.  The only button highlighted is Finish.  Click Finish and nothing happened.  Only thing in the log file is:

    Discovery method:Import firewall configuration.

    I removed banner from file per another email thread.  No help.

    Ideas?

    Thanks.

      parser was never designed to parse full PIX configs, it only can parse IOS configs and even in that case there are so many different commands that it sometimes stumbles. If you try to feed it FWSM config, you need to remove everything except "interface" and "access-list" clauses. It will not parse any nat configuration for sure.

      Thanks.

      also found...

      won't import 'object-group'
      won't import 'access-list' for non-numeric ACL groups

      I'll wait for next version.
