Cisco Firewall :: ASA 5505 Intermittent Denies From Internal Workstations
Mar 24, 2013
I'm completely illiterate with Cisco appliances but I'm taking care of an ASA 5505 that is configured as a firewall and it has been working for the last years. All of the sudden we are experiencing intermittent connection problems from the workstations. You can be browsing the internet and suddently you'll get a server not found error but you refresh it and it works. This is also intermittent, out no apparent reason it will start working normally again.
I am seeing a bunch of errors like this in the logs:
4 Mar 25 2013 14:34:49 106023 66.235.119.5 69.70.15.61 Deny icmp src outside:66.235.119.5 dst inside:69.70.15.61 (type 8, code 0) by access-group "inbound" [0x0, 0x0]

I have an intermittent issue happening on my company's firewall, and I'm at a loss as to how to troubleshoot further.
We recently made some changes to our network, which included moving an ASA 5505 from one location to another. In moving this we also connected it to a different switch. It used to hang off a Cisco 3560, and now it hangs off a ProCurve 5406zl.
The setup is that the ASA is connected on two ports to the HP, which is simply a layer 2 device sitting between the firewall and the uplink to our ISP. One port, e0/0, is the outside interface and is set to switchport access vlan 2. The second interface, e0/1, is set for vlan 1, also access mode. It has an IP of 10.0.0.2. The HP on the other end of that has an IP of 10.0.0.1. So outside VPN connections come through the HP to the ASA on e0/0, and back out the ASA on port e0/1 to reach devices on the internal network.
What happens is that when a user connects to the VPN, they can reach internal resources intermittently. For example, I tried to ping an internal server IP address (let's say 10.0.0.23) from my laptop, while on the VPN, and pings failed. However I could ping that IP from the ASA itself. Another example is that during one VPN connection I was unable to connect to an internal web server, but once I disconnected and connected ahain I could reach the server fine.
The intermittent nature of the problem made me think that it could be an ARP issue, that somehow the traffic is getting sent back out the wrong interface sometimes, hence the lack of communication. However when I did show switch mac-address | include mac address, using the base mac of the HP, I only saw the mac address of the HP on one interface, e0/1. That makes me think that things are working as they should. Although I guess maybe it should appear on both interfaces...? I don't know. How I can most effectively troubleshoot this? It seems like the symptoms are indicative of some kind of rookie mistake, but for the life of me I can't figure out what it is.

I have a Cisco ASA 5505 (version above) and I have someone that needs to SSH into a box behind the ASA. I'm having a few issues trying to configure this access-list and NAT. I've tried many combinations and clearly my IOS is not as good as I thought. What commands should I enter to accomplish mapping SSH from an outside network range to an internal host ?

I now need to configure an ASA 5505 for a small server farm. It's fairly straightforward:isp -> asa5505 -> internal servers,'m using static addresses -- no DHCP involved.VPN works; I can get into the internal network.pinging from the ASA to an external address works,However, I cannot get from a laptop connected to an internal port out to the internet, either using ping or typing an address in the browser.

I am new to Cisco ASA and have been configuring my new firewall but one thing have been bothering. I cannot get internal networks and routing between them to work as I would like to. Goal is to set four networks and control access with ACL:s between those.
1. Outside
2. DMZ
3. ServerNet1
4. Inside
ASA version is 9.1 and i have been reading on two different ways on handling IP routing with this. NAT Exempt and not configuring NAT at all and letting normal IP routing to handle internal networks. No matter how I configure, with or without NAT I cannot get access from inside network to DMZ or from ServerNet1 to DMZ. Strange thing is that I can access services from DMZ to Inside and ServerNet1 if access list allows it. For instance DNS server is on Inside network and DMZ works great using it. [code]

I am having some trouble accessing some backup Email (Outlook Web Access) and Citrix servers located behind an ASA 5505 firewall at a remote datacentre. Simply put, when I go to the specific URL (e.g. [URL]) I do not arrive at the splash page, I just get a message saying that the server took too long to respond in the web browser. I'm wondering whether I have missed something on the configuration or the firewall itself is not letting my requests through. The remote servers are located at a remote Disaster Recovery site and use the subnet 192.168.4.0/24. I am at head office which is connected to the DR site via a VPN using 192.168.1.0/24.

I have a client in a workgroup environment. They are a small company with perhaps twenty systems. Their infrastructure consists of a Dell Switch, a Cisco ASA-5505 which hands out the DHCP and a router. And that's that.They have been using an external IP as their DNS Server to get out to the Web. However, they now want to add an internal Linux-based DNS server.In looking through the ASA-5505 today I noticed a field for DNS enteries. Is this where the IP for this new internal DNS Server (in the secondary DNS field) would go?If so, would it be necessary to reboot the ASA-5505 for this change to take effect?

We recently changed locations and acquired a new circuit from our provider. They also connected our remote branch office to our main office through MPLS. Now, as I understand it, the branch office basically connects back to the main office through our providers network (MPLS). We have a new router at the branch office which has a gateway of 192.168.1.225. The clients in that office have IP's of 192.168.1.96 - 100, using the gateway of 192.168.1.225.
The main office network is 192.168.0.0 (Gateway of 192.168.0.1)
At this end (Main office), I also have a new Cisco 2900 provided by the ISP, with port 0/0 for the outside connection (connected to the 0 port on my ASA 5505). The ASA's port 1 obviously running into my network hub. The provider tells me that port 0/1 on the 2900 is or should be used to connect the branch office back to here and has an IP of 192.168.0.225, as that's how the provider provisioned it. So, I plug that into the ASA's Ethernet port 0/2. And I'm assuming they have a route setup either on the 2900 or the router in the branch office so that 192.168.1.225 can reach me here at 192.168.0.0.
There is already a static route setup on the ASA: (192.168.1.0 255.255.255.255 192.168.0.225 1). As soon as I plug in the cable, the IP phones at the branch office work, but they can't access the internet or any resources in the main office. My questions are:
1. Shouldn't I be able to just go straight from the 0/1 port on the Cisco 2900 to my hub. At first I was plugging right into the ASA, but I don't think I need to do that, why go from the branch office through my ASA to access resources and then back out the ASA for internet. If they're already coming from 192.168.1.225, through the MPLS network, then they should go right to my network and then back out the ASA.
2. They have to route through the ASA first, in which case, do I need to setup another VLAN for that branch network in conjunction with a static route? I can ping the router and hosts in the branch office through the ASA only!
Below is the running sanitized config:

I tried the solution posted at [URL] however it did not work on my ASA5505 8.4(2). I thought that it may be because I only have a single public address so the web server is responding to port forwarding through the one public IP already. looking in ASDM it appears to indicate that a configured access list is blocking the server from responding to the internal hosts.
object network Private_IP
host 192.168.1.15
object network Public_IP
host 1.1.1.1
object-group network internal_net
[code]....
Can I fix an access list (or something) to make this work or am I wishing for too much with only one public IP? This worked by default on my Netgear firewall.

I have a Cisco 5505, 2 sites that are internal, 1 external IP (dhcp from cable modem). While on my laptop, ipad, iphone, I cannot access the server via it's external IP address. I MUST use the internal IP in order to access this site. I have heard of hairpinning, internal dns server(don't really want this).

I have an old ASA 5505, and I'm having some trouble with Nat Hairpinning. I've done this with other firewalls before and I am having no luck now. I have an internal address that I wish to forward from an external address- so if someone goes to 123.456.789.012:3456 then it will forward to 192.168.1.244:92 (All numbers are arbitrary here- only for illustration). I have and Access Rule and NAT and PAT set up so that I can get in if I originate from outside the LAN. What I am trying to do is to have this work from inside the LAN as well- so that if I am at my desk, and I connect a device and type in 123.456.789.012:3456, it will deliver the content at 192.168.1.244:92. The problem I am having is that it just isn't working, and I cannot figure out why- When I started here, there was an address configured to work this way, and it still works- I just cannot find what is different between what I am doing and what the person who configured it did.

I'm usually not working with this product, but this is what I'm trying to do.I have 2 internal networks setup on our Cisco ASA 5505 firewall. (not done by me, I'm a new to this product)I'm trying to access a server on one network from a PC located on the other internal network. (preferable through the web gui)When I try "Packet Tracer" from interface "Trust4" it fails on the NAT phase.(Source ip: 10.0.4.99, Destination ip: 10.0.6.99)
When I check the NAT rule, it says:

For a customer I have configured a new ASA 5505 firewall with 8.42 software. I had to build 3 ipsec tunnels to different locations and firewalls. All tunnels are working except one. I have to translate the inside network 1 to 1 to a different private range before it is sent over the tunnel. Each host from network 192.168.133.0 /24 has to be translated to a 192.168.112.0 /24 host and then sent over the tunnel. (e.g. 192.168.133.22 translated to 192.168.112.22)

I have a server that I need to open up some ports on to allow access to the new internal Sharepoint server we're setting up. I've been having some issues getting the ports open like once I put the commands in and save them that server suddenly stops allowing outbound traffic. After looking at a few things I noticed while I was looking at the config file that the ASDM location is showing 2 IP's, both are the same as the server I'm trying to open ports for one being the private IP and the other is the public IP I'm trying to use. Is this the reason I'm having problems when I try to open those ports to my server? Do I need to use both a different private and public IP for this server so I can get my ports to work? The programmers selected these IP's so if I need to change them I'll let them know in case they need to make changes for the Sharepoint setup. This is on an ASA 5505.

I have an ASA 5505 with the security plus software and I'm trying to find out how to assign 2 public IPs to the outside interface and have each IP routed to a separate internal VLAN. For example, IP 1 = X.X.X.1 routed to 192.168.1.0 and IP 2 X.X.X.2 routed to 192.168.2.0. I was told this was possible and I've been trying to find configuration examples, but I can't seem to get anywhere and now I'm getting desperate because I'm scheduled to install it this weekend.

Currently I have an ASA setup as a Firewall with 1 outside interface and 2 inside interfaces. Initially, the Guest interface was setup to receive DHCP from the ASA and everything was working. I'm adding router and a server for the guest interface and what I'm trying to accomplish now is the following: ASA 5505 > Airport Extreme with a public static IP (69.xx.xx.6), handling DHCP and NAT > Mac Server as DNS Server.Right now, when I connect to my Airport Extreme with any computer, I don't have internet. I don't understand what's wrong. My DNS Server has a reserved IP address: 192.168.226.2 and it's pointing to itself and forwarding the ISP DNS servers, the Airport Extreme is handling the DNS Server IP and the ISP DNS Server IP but I can't connect to the internet from the server.

How to best troubleshoot some errors I'm seeing on the internal interfaces of my ASA 5505. This is similar to the question at [URL], but the details are different enough that I felt it justified a new discussion.
I have an ASA 5505, running version 8.2(2), 256MB RAM. From time to time (on the order of once a week) our monitoring alerts us that both Internal-Data0/0 and Internal-Data0/1 are experiencing an unusual amount of inbound packets which were discarded with errors, up to 2.3 per second as of this post. Here is what I hope relevant output from my device:
asa# show interface ip brief
Interface IP-Address OK? Method Status Protocol
Internal-Data0/0 unassigned YES unset up up
Internal-Data0/1 unassigned YES unset up up
Vlan1 10.x.x.x YES CONFIG up up
Vlan2 32.32.32.32 YES CONFIG up up
[code]....
1. My understanding is that Internal-Data0/0 is an internal bus that connects to modules like the 4GE. I don't have any modules installed at all, as you can tell. Therefore, what is this bus doing?
2. For that matter, what is Internal-Data0/1 doing? What does it connect to?
3. I'm guessing that due to the input errors and overruns reported for both of these interfaces, it's a buffering issue. Since these are input errors, does this mean that traffic destined to this bus for forwarding is being dropped because the bus itself is running out of buffer memory? How would I see (and subsequently monitor) the buffer memory for these interfaces? Once I am able to see it, what sort of tools can I use to determine what is causing this?

I have an ASA 5505 with the base license,When I setup the DMZ interface I had to add the deny access to the inside VLAN. The DMZ works fine with WiFi on it, but user's iPhones can't get email unless they turn WiFi off.Is there a simple way to allow HTTPS traffic through the DMZ interface to our internal Exchange server which is NAT'd on the 5505's external IP?

I have an ASA5505 where vlan1 (inside) and all associated ports (e0/1 - e0/7) are down. Workstations on vlan 1 are online and working. Vlan2 (outside) is up and running normally. I tried to shut/no shut on the vlan. I also rebooted the firewall. No change. Why vlan1 is down?? I've attached some config info and some troubleshooting.

Recommend a low-cost Cisco-branded router/firewall for a clinic with perhaps 10 user workstations? We're looking for something that will support attaching a static VPN to a data center.
Currently we're using a Cisco RV082 in our office, but there might be a device which is more appropriate for the next office we connect to the data center. On the data center side we're using a Juniper SSG5.

I have a user that uses an ASA 5505 in NEM to have his/her laptop and Cisco IP Phone at home. The ASA 5505 establishes a tunnel to an ASA 5510, which is connected and speaking EIGRP to our core switch. Off of the core switch we have our CCM cluster.
The issue happens on the first call after a long period of no calls. After if happens on the first call, he/she can continue to make calls without the issue. I though it was a timeout issue, but his/her ASA configuration is the exact same. Also, he/she is using the same group policy, tunnel-group etc. as everyone else with the same setup.
This issue happens regardless if she has a PC behind the phone or not.Internal calls and external are both affected.
I am aware that most one-audio issues are RTP connectivity issues between the two endpoints. I can clearly see in the routing table of all of our routers, that the route to the subnet her phone is on has not changed for days, and she has had the issue within that amount of time.
I'm looking for a good place to start troubleshooting that doesn't require me to to a pcap. If all else fails, I will do a pcap.

I have been asked to "forward a port on an ASA 5505 to an internal ip address." Sounds easy for most of you, and I thought I did it right, but I am not certain. Basically, they want it set up so that when xx.xx.xx.xx:30000 (x's = the firewall ip with port 30000) is accessed from outside, it is forwarded to an internal ip on port 30000 (xxx.xxx.x.xxx:30000)
Here is what I tried from within ASDM 6.4:
1. NAT Rules-add static NAT route:
original-Interface: inside
-Source: xx.xx.xx.xx (local ip of computer on LAN they wish to access from outside)
Translated - Interface - Use Interface IP Address
Enable PAT: Original and Translated port both set to 30000
2. Access Rule - add
Interface: Inside
Source: any
Destination: xx.xx.xx.xx (IP of Firewall)
Service: tcp/30000
