What is Cisco ASA Firewall?

Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) is a powerful firewall that provides advanced threat protection, VPN services, and network security. The Cisco ASA CLI (Command-Line Interface) is essential for configuring security policies, monitoring network traffic, and troubleshooting firewall operations.

Why Use Cisco ASA CLI?

The CLI (Command-Line Interface) is the preferred method for configuring Cisco ASA because it:
✅ Provides precise control over firewall settings
✅ Allows faster troubleshooting than GUI-based tools
✅ Supports scripting and automation using Ansible and Python
