For multiple context mode, if you place the MSFC or router behind the ASASM, you should only connect it to a single context. If you connect it to multiple contexts, the MSFC/router will route between the contexts, which might not be your intention. The typical scenario for multiple contexts is to use a router in front of all the contexts to route between the Internet and the switched networks.
