Cisco ASA/FWSM. Place a button for double logins or build into the NCM device config
I just wan it to login to the fwsm or asa command line without all this extra work.
Currently for ASA/FWSM there is no direct login to privileged mode. Even with Tacacs or any other setup your first prompt is >.
You need to do enable and put your tacacs password in again.

To get configs for nightly backups I have to set the Firewalls only as "device" with the backup user account solarwinds_user and password and use the enable level option
For all other devices I have it setup as "user" and it works fine for Routers and Switches with <no enable login>.
Our Solarwinds_user account only has read access(as it should be).
If we want to use the Configuration template script on the NPM web page we have to
- Goto NCM -> My User credentials
- Change <no enable level> to enable
- Select all the Firewalls which will have the config applied to them and mass change them to user
- Config template select the config to apply and run.
- then We have to revert the process or the configs will not be backed up nightly.
