Cisco Firewall :: 5540 PIM Multicast Routing In ASA Scenario
Jun 19, 2011
We have an ASA-5540 (8.4(1)) The inside interface faces a few multicast receivers. The outside interface faces the multicast source.All of the ASA multicast documents I've download describe very simple network designs, such as a single segment on the ASA inside.Our PC hosts that will be multicast receivers are a couple router hops away from the ASA inside interface. I'm not sure what the best way is to configure multicast on the ASA.Should I configure the ASA with PIM routing and a static RP address (plus the ACL to allow the multicast source traffic in) since the receiver hosts are a couple hops away? I think I understand the IGMP joins are for a local PIM router, so configuring as a Stub Multicast router wouldn't work? The two Cisco routers between the host and the inside ASA interface already have PIM, a static RP address, and IP PIM Spare-Mode configured.

I currently have an ASA 5520 in production without using subinterfaces. I have connected an interface on the ASA to a 4507, the 4507 contains SVIwhich perform the routing for our internal network. I have another ASA 5520 and I am playing around with a few new design scenarios. The problem I am currently having is with SubInterfaces on the inside of the network. I understand the subinterfaces on the outside network, I am using subinterfaces on the outside for dual homing ISPs.
I don't understand the multiple subinterfaces on the inside, for some reason I can't wrap my mind around using them. I have created a few and trunked a port from my 3560X to the ASA interface. Here is my design.
ASA 5520 Config(I realize that this isn't how it would look in CLI, I just don't remember all of the commands)
interface Gi 0/1
nameif Physical Interface
no ip address
interface Gi 0/1.10
nameif Prod_USERS
ip address 172.16.10.1 255.255.255.0
security-level 100
interface Gi 0/1.20
nameif Users
ip address 10.10.16.1 255.255.255.0
security-level 100
Alright so in this scenario I would have a trunk port from my 3560X connected to interface Gi 0/1 on the ASA. On the 3560X I would created the two VLANs (vlan 10 and vlan 20); I also created an SVI on the 3560X as follows.
3560X config
interface VLAN 10
description PROD_USERS
ip address 172.16.10.2 255.255.255.0
no shut
interface VLAN 20
description USER-NET
ip address 10.10.16.2 255.255.255.0
no shut
Now I create a default route on the 3560X as follows, "ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 172.16.10.1". By doing this, I can only route my 172.16.10.0 network out to the internet, not the 10.10.16.0 network? I have to remove the default route above and add ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.10.16.0 for clients on that network to browse out to the web.
So I am obviously missing something crucial here and I just can't wrap my head around this design scenerio for some reason. the topology necessary for this configuration to function correctly and how I can get both of my VLANs to function properly. I would like for the 3560X to route traffic internally until traffic needs to browse into the DMZ or out to the web, and at such time it should then use the firewall.

We're in the process of swapping in a new pair of ASA5520s and Catalyst 3750s to support two separate business units. We want Firewall A and Switch A to handle traffic for Org A (VLAN 100). Similarly, firewall B and Switch B should handle traffic for Org B (VLAN200). But we want to be able to fail traffic over in case of firewall or switch failure. Traffic between the two Orgs is being routed at the switch level. [code]
The uplink interface on each switch is currently a routed port with a static address on the uplink subnet. This works fine in a normal state. However, when we fail over one of the firewall contexts to the other chassis, this results in the inability to route internal traffic because the internal interface is now physically connected to a different switch with a different IP port address (obvious in hindsight). The question is, rather than a routed port, what would be the proper way to handle traffic between the switches and firewalls in a failover scenario? If I make the uplink ports into trunks, won't this cause all packets destined for either firewall to hit both both? Seems like that's not the way to go either? [code]

I'm fairly new at trying to create isolated network segments on Cisco switches. What I'm trying to do is have multiple isolated paths that originate from my v Sphere infrastructure travel through a layer 2 link, v LAN, up to a MLS, and ultimately out to to the internet through a firewall. Each sub net might ultimately have a number of hosts on it, but I don't think the make up of those hosts will matter here.
My initial thought was creating v LAN tagged port groups on v Switches on my v Sphere infrastructure. Physical connections will go from my ESXi hosts to the 2900 series Cisco switch connected to trunk ports. Both v LANs would be configured on the switch but not assigned to physical ports. The physical connection to the 3750 would also be a trunk port connection from the 2960. The 3750 would have SVI's created that are attached to VRFs that would control route traffic. This might be totally wrong but from what i've read it seems to be going down the correct path I think.
Two part question, is this the best way to go about designing this network? If so I seem to be really struggling with the SVI/VRF part. Every time I create an SVI all of my hosts on the 10.10.10.x network can ping them, regardless of which v LAN they're on.
I just cannot seem to isolate the 172 network.

I try to pass multicast traffic between two vrf on the same 3750 switch. I have IP services IOS and sdm template routing.
here is my config:
ip routing
!
ip vrf vpn2
rd 1:1
mdt default 232.1.1.1
route-target export 1:1
route-target import 1:1
[code]....
Now I'm stuck - I don't know what to do to pass multicast traffic. Do I have any chance to run this config on 3750 chassis?Perhaps "Configuring Multicast VPN Extranet Support" document will be useful, but it concerns Catalyst 6500? [URL]

I have a network setup where two servers from inside need to communicate with a remote network via 2 VPN gateways. The destinations are same. However, the chalange is each server need to follow it's own VPN gateway. Since i can't configure PBR (policy based routing) in ASA, can i configure something like MAC Address based routing. I can't use destination based routing since the remote network are reachable from the both VPN Gateways.

I can't seem to find where in ASDM (6.4.1), can we configure IGMP forwarding? ASA5520(config-if)# igmp forward interface outside The ASDM doc reference does not seem to be correct pointing to:configuring Stub Multicast Routing
Step 1 In the main ASDM window, choose Configuration > Device Setup > Routing > Multicast > IGMP.
#Step 2 In the Multicast pane, check the Enable Multicast routing check box.
#Step 3 Choose MForwarding.
which generates:
ASA5520(config-if)# mfib forwarding

WAN1 <-> LAN traffic
WAN2 <-> LAN traffic
WAN1 <-> WAN2 traffic?
Say, it is set DISABLED, what is / isn't blocked?
It reads: Multicast Pass Through IP Multicasting occurs when a single data transmission is sent to multiple recipients at the same time. Using this feature, the Router allows IP multicast packets to be forwarded to the appropriate computers.

I have the following devices :
-1 VM Host
-2 Layer 3 switches
I would like to provide full redundancy for all vlans being used by VM Guests on the VM Host as well as the management vlan being used by the VM Host.I have created two LACP etherchannel connections on the VM Host. Each etherchannel from the host consists of 4 ports spanning a single NIC. One etherchannel connection goes to a trunked etherchannel connection on switch 1, and the other etherchannel connection goes to a trunked etherchannel connection on switch 2.Switch 1 and switch 2 have an etherchannel connection between them that carries all of the vlans in the topology.Vlan 2 is the managment vlan. Vlans 3, 4, and 5 are vlans that VM guest systems will be using for normal data traffic.
I intend to use switch 1 as the VRRP active router and spanning-tree root bridge for vlans 2 and 3.I intend to use switch 2 as the VRRP active router and spanning-tree root bridge for vlans 4 and 5.The spanning-tree configuration is using multiple spanning-tree with two instances. Instance 1 has vlans 2 and 3 associated and Instance 2 has vlans 4 and 5 associated. I would like to have this topology be fault tolerant to the point where if one of the etherchannel links between the host and one of the switches goes down, (for example, if switch 1 was powered off) traffic will be automatically redirected through the other functional link. I believe that my VRRP configuration would allow for a fairly quick failover of layer 3 services, but I am not certain that my design will be functional at a layer 2 level.
What I am uncertain about is how spanning-tree will converge. I am assuming that the virtual switch on the VM host will not be forwarding any BPDUs being sent by either switch. Would either of the links connecting to the host be considered a redundant link by either switch?Would the link between switch 2 and the host be inactive for all vlans in MST instance 1 during normal operation?Conversely, would the link between switch 1 and the host be inactive for all vlans in MST instance 2 during normal operation? Would all links remain active for ALL vlans? Would this mean that some traffic may travel through switch 2 to reach switch 1 instead of going directly to switch 1?

My topologie is to connect IBM Mainframes into a Single Gateway Scenario. All the configurations in the machines are correct, and during a feel period of elapsed time we had the mainframe XCA/line/PU Station (Side DLSW) and the PU from CCU 3745 line (Single Gateway Side) both into ACTIVE state. The problem occured when we tried to INACT and ACT the mainframe VTAM lines; The lines, after this restart operation stayed in PCTD1 all the time. Searching the problem into DLSW's Border Router definitions, we observe that there are two Routers Serial Interfaces defineds with the same SDLC VMAC address (4000.3745.0000). Executing the DEBUG DLSW command was verified that there are the following messages:
00:39:07: CSM: delete group cache for 4000:3745:1, group 0
00:39:07: CSM: delete group cache for 4000:3745:1, group 0
00:39:07: DLSw: START-FSM (2147483685): event:DLC-CloseStn.Cnf state:CLOSE_PEND
00:39:07: DLSw: 2147483685 to dead queue
My question is, the ocurrence of these two delete group cache for the same Mac Address 4000.3745.1, group 0, means the mistake into maintain defined two Serials Interfaces with the same SDLC VMAC Address ?
The messages dispalynd the CONNECTED state never appears and iI think mus be something like that sample:
%DLSWC-3-RECVSSP: SSP OP = 8( CONQ ) from peer 10.17.2.198(2065)
DLSw: START-FSM (488636): event:WAN-CONQ state:CKT_ESTABLISHED
DLSw: core: dlsw_action_i()

ASA5540# sh run nat-control
no nat-control
this means higher security can talk to lower security without NAT rules
Question 1) - if I want higher security zone to to talk to lower security with NAT rules. I would use statements like below. Am I correct?
nat (dmz) 1 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0
nat (inside) 1 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0
global (dmz) 1 interface
global (inside) 1 interface
Is this correct? So in this case I am kindly of like overriding the no nat-control statement ...right?
Question 2) - Now I have no nat-control enabled. Would the below statements (nat 0) be of any use for NAT exemption??
nat (dmz) 0 access-list dmz-nonat
nat (inside) 0 access-list dbase-nonat
And do I have to have a global statement for NAT 0 ...like below?
global (dmz) 0 access-list dmz-nonat
global (apps) 0 access-list dbase-

I have a remote site customer with a Cisco ASA 5540 running SSLVPN (Anyconnect)(8.03). It currently only serves about 450 SSLVPN clients. Since last friday, they've seen the CPU utilization go up to high 90% while only serving 400+ remote users. I saw some high cpu utilization bugs, but none looked to be relevant. How I can find the root cause of the CPU high utilization?

Just upped our external ASA-5540 pair to 8.4(1), and now one of our nat's is busted.
Here's the lowdown:
Our public IP for our IronPorts ends in .167. That IP is natted to a VIP on our ACE, which load balances to the IronPorts.
The outside interface of the ASA uses .162, which has been the pat for all outbound traffic for a few years... except for the subnet that houses the IronPorts. Due to reverse lookup, that subnet uses the .167 IP address for all outbound traffic.
After the code upgrade, the nat won't work. No email sent or received. Nothing but Deny's on the ASA with flags reading either "SYN" or "RST". IE: Apr 27 12:56:11 10.22.151.41 local5.crit %ASA-2-106001: Inbound TCP connection denied from 69.25.174.17/36917 to 207.236.211.167/25 flags SYN on interface outside
If I return the subnet pat back to the outside interface, then inbound traffic works fine, though reverse lookup fails and anyone running a reasonable spam filter won't send to us.

I am in the process of rebuilding our ASA 5540 pair. We are currently on 8.2 code with this set of firewalls and I was going to upgrade it to 8.4 being I have a couple of other firewalls running this code currently and am familiar with it. That said, I saw that the 9.x code is out there now. Are there any major advantages or caveats with the 9.0 code? I plan to use this firewall with SSL VPN and RSA Secure ID integration for the next 2-3 years at least. Any quick pointers on these two code versions and on upgrading to 9 or staying with 8.4 line.
