ASA5512-K8 Overview
DES order identity matters for an existing VPN design
ASA5512-K8 is the Cisco ASA 5512-X firewall ordering variant specified with DES encryption. Cisco lists ASA5512-K9 separately with 3DES/AES. Do not treat the K8 and K9 orders as interchangeable or promise the K9 cryptographic features from a K8 label; verify installed software and activation records against the required VPN configuration.
Separate management cabling from the data connections
The exact K8 ordering row identifies six copper Gigabit Ethernet data ports, one copper Gigabit Ethernet management port and AC power. The management connection is a distinct interface, not an extra interchangeable traffic port. This order is also different from ASA5512-DC-K8, whose official entry specifies DC power.
Support has ended for this exact hardware order
Cisco explicitly includes ASA5512-K8 in EOL11414, with sales ending August 25, 2017 and the final support date of August 31, 2022. Before buying a legacy replacement, check the operational risk, configuration recovery plan and migration target. A reseller quotation does not restore manufacturer support or establish that an old security feature is appropriate for a new deployment.
