New block of IPs and new gateway to add on ASA5505

Question

At this time I have on my firewall the following;
Subnet; 24.222.61.x
Gateway; 24.222.61.x
Subnet Mask; 255.255.255.240
Usable IP Range; 24.222.61.x to x
They gave me a new outside IP Addresses and GW;
Subnet; 24.222.92.x
Gateway; 24.222.92.x
Subnet Mask; 255.255.255.224
Usable IP Range; 24.222.92.x to x
How do I add the new outside network to my ASA?

Answer 1

Interfaces only support a single IPv4 address.  If you are changing addresses, you can just redo the outside interface ip address line and any default route statement.
If you are keeping the old addresses plus adding the new ones, you have a couple of options:
You could configure a second "outside" interface with a different name which used the new subnet and address.  However, there would be routing issues, so you might not like that.
You could have the upstream ISP route the new subnet to your old firewall address, and use the new subnet for NAT.  This is particularly good for static inbound NAT scenarios.
You could configure a new DMZ style interface for the new subnet on the inside, and also have the ISP route the new subnet to the old outside address.
I use both strategies (2) and (3) with different chunks of my own public v4 space.
