Cisco Firewall :: ASA 5510 - Allow ICMP From Three Blocks Of IP Addresses?
Jul 12, 2011
I have an ASA5510 running version 8.4. ICMP is blocked from the internet to the outside interface of our firewall but now our ISP is requesting us to allow ICMP from their network to the outside of our ASA. I need to allow ICMP from three blocks of IP Addresses?
I have an ASA that is logging the message %ASA-3-321007: system is low on free memory blocks of size 2048. I ran the "show blocks" command and the "Cnt" value for the 2048 blocks is 0. How do I reclaim these blocks and what are they used for?
So I have my shiny new (used, but new to me) 5510 finally working and installed in my Dev network. I need to have icmp (ping and trace route) available from the inside network. I Google and found a few articles on how to do it. I tried modifying the class maps, but it looks like there are changes in the commands in 8.4 and the articles I found evidently were for 8.2 and lower. I tried doing it with access lists, again from examples and traffic stopped in all directions (not good) so I am back to being functional and how to do it in 8.4. Documentation seems sparse on the net with 8.4
I am having trouble with our ASA5510. After upgrading the internal memory from 256 MB to 1 GB and upgrading the firmware to 8.4.2 we are experiencing that the ASA is running out of 1550 byte blocks. When that happens it is not possible to connect to the ASA by ADSM or SSH and new VPN IPSEC tunnels are not coming up. The only way I know how to fix this is to reload the ASA. This is happening every 2 to 3 days.
In the free blocks graph one can see that there is a loss of about 20 blocks per 10 minutes.
I have installed a new ASA5510 with CSC, and everything is working properly except the access to websites using https. All sites/access to them seem to be blocked by the ASA. I have read that this access is by default enabled and I have tried to add configuration to allow https access to the firewall but without success. [code]
I have ASA 5510 with soft version 8.4(5) installed. There are two interfaces:
IP 1.1.1.1/24 - inside IP 2.2.2.1/24 - outside
I have configured PAT, so network 1.1.1.0/24 gets NATted to 2.2.2.2 address. Everything works fine, except I can't reach 2.2.2.2 via ICMP from the internet.
I am working on an ASA 5510 on 8.4 IOS and need to know how to limit icmp to just a single host? What I would like to do is be able to PING from the Inside interface 10.X.X.X to host 4.2.2.2 on the Outside, but thats it no other host would be PINGable.I tried MANY different access-list statements but the only way I can get icmp out and working is using the "fixup protocol icmp" but then everything is PINGable and the ASA does not block anything.
I am having some issues with my ASA 5510 (running ASA 8.2) dropping ICMP unreachable-fragmentation-required-but-df-bit-set type messages coming in on the outside interface. I have the following entry in the ACL for the outside interface:access-list outside_acl extended permit icmp any interface outside and there are no other entries in that list that should take precedence and drop the packet. Pings from outside to the ASA work when this ACE is present and do no when it is absent so it is clearly taking effect. I see the following entries in the debug log when sending a large non-fragmentable packet (that would cause an intermediate router to send back this ICMP response) out to the internet through the ASa,As far as I can tell I am not running ICMP inspection; I don't want it to do any stateful magic here since the outgoing traffic would have been ordinary data from another protocol and would not have caused an outgoing ICMP connection to be built to match against.
I'm currently replacing my ASA 5505 with a 5510. I have a range of public IP addresses, one has been assigned to the outside interface by the setup wizard (e.g. 123.123.123.124 ) and another I would like to NAT to an internal server (e.g 192.168.0.3 > 123.123.123.125). On my asa 5505 this seemed fairly straigh forward, i.e. create an incoming access rule that allowed SMTP to 123.123.123.125 and then create a static nat to translate 192.168.0.3 to 123.123.123.125. Since I've tried to do the same on the 5510 traffic is not passing through so I'm assuming that the use of additional public IP addresses is not handled in the same way as the 5505? I also see that by default on the 5505, 2 VLANs are created, one for the inside and one for the outside, where as this is not the case on the 5510. Is the problem that VLANs or sub-interfaces need to be created first? I'm doing the config via ASDM.
Everything else seems to OK i.e. access to ASDM via 123.123.123.124, outbound PAT and the site-to-site VPN.
How do i tell my firewall to start listen also on another outside ipadress assigned by my ISP? I have it used on other firewall right now. So my steps would be shutting down ip address assignment off old firewall interface. Assign that ip address to ASA5510 outside interface and configure NAT.
I have an ASA 5510 running 8.4(2) which has a site to site IPSec VPN to a 3rd party who run some form of Checkpoint. The VPN establishes and allows access to a server in our DMZ on all ports that we have tested (so far HTTP, SSL, RDP, FTP) except for SQL which doesn't even seem to reach the server. I've got Wireshark running on the DMZ server and if the 3rd party initiates a TCP conversation from their server on any of the working ports to the server I see all of the expected packets arrive with the correct IPs etc (no NAT takes place across the VPN) but when an ODBC client attempts to query the SQL server on our DMZ box the packets do not arrive at the server. What I can see is the RX byte count on the VPN increasing each time the query is run but definitely no SQL arriving at the server.
Also if I revert the ASA back to the old PIX it has replaced with the same VPN config but on version 7.x then it works just fine.
Currently I have an asa 5510 set up with one block of outside IP addresses. Everything is working fine in regards to my initial setup. However we needed to purchase additional IPs from our provider and ended up being a whole complete different block. Where I am getting stuck is getting the new IPs to NAT to inside addresses.
I want to allow ICMP traffic on ASA 5510 from LAN interface to DMZ. I've permit any traffic and added ICMP to the inspestion list also but still there is problem. Belos is the configuration. The image is asa822-k8.bin
I am not receiving icmp replays from the fswm interfaces if i try to ping 172.20.80.1 from 10.50.50.2.I do not see any debuging info in the logsI successfully ping 10.50.50.2 from the inside networks int the cat6500, but int the network 172.20.80.0, can not ping 10.50.50.2.
I am trying to configure my ASA 5505 security plus through ASDM to receive two blocks of outside IPs (each of which is on a different subnet and a different gateway ip) to translate to my internal server giving it public access.I have searched for days (and maybe incorrectly) but I am finally asking for the configuration of the ASA to support this.
We have 2 IP blocks from my ISP. We have been using just one a /30 block with one IP address used on the outside interface of the device. The new block is a /29 range and I would need to use just two of those IP addresses. Here is the situation I am facing.A company we partnered with wants to set up a VPN, they will send us 2 Cisco 861s to put behind our ASA. Is it possible to assign these 861's with public IPs from the block that we are not currently using? (the /29 range)? I know that it might require an upgrade to the Security Plus.
I am trying to get up to speed on this topic as quickly as possible.
Here is my issue:
1) We are able to access the webiste
2) We are able to upload data packets
3) We allow the website to time out while we are uploading data packets
4) When we attempt to re-access the website the ip is blocked a) this includes pinging and trace
5) After an undertermined period of time the ip is unblocked and we are allowed to access it again.
The ASA 5505 router is the last forward facing stop before entering the VPN tunnel. We have tested by circumventing the ASA and we are unable to duplicate the disconnect. We have reviewed the config file and have not been able to identify what rule/settings could be affecting this.
when tracing port usage, the actions use 2 tcp ports and 1 udp port, the 2 tcp ports open and close by each transaction, when the ip block occures the 2 tcp ports are "dead" the udp port remains open (appearhently sending the remainder of the data packets)
I have two complete networks in my office. I want to access my printer from both the networks. Condition: With the Firewall I can't access computer of one network from another how can I access the printer from both the LANs. I am not allowed to play with Firewall.
i cannot send emails to outside, i have an access rule on interface inside permit source: inside destination: any servic: tcp/smtp and when i make paket tracer it shows me that the packet is dropped but i cant see through which rule!!
I have a Cisco ASA 5510 with a 5 block of IP addresses assigned from our ISP. I am having issues with connectivity and routing traffic from the outside interface to the outside interface. I have my outside interface set up with IP address of 24.182.x.146, it allows internet access and also hosts a web server. Any time I have a client using this device for internet access, I am unable to have traffic accepted for my web server. I.E 100.100.x.52 is using this device, it browses to https://24.182.x.146 and it gets an unable to connect. I am able to connect to the web server from any other ISP/Device. [code]
We have an issue in which some of our public IPs will not work from outside. We have a couple of subnets/29. We allow traffic via access rules and they point to internal servers (nat to nat). So I requested an ARP table from our ISP router. The table shows that the non working IPs have a differect MAC address than the working IPs. Our ISP blames our equipment (CIsco ASA 5510) for this. I spoke to Cisco support. They looked at our configuration, and tested it. They say our configuration is correct and the ISP's equipment is doing it.
As you can see above, the IP ending in 205 has a different MAC address ending in 4cd9. It should end in 4cd8. This seems to happened randomly with all IPs. Like if I restart the ASA. Some of the IPs will not work, and will show a different MAC address.We then have to wait a couple of hrs for them to start work again.
I have a Cisco RV042 Wired Router. I've got a static IP and a MS Small Business Server in my Router Network. I have forwarded the essential ports to use the IIS and the Exchange Server of my SBS2011 (https, http, smtp, rpc).
I can use the IIS, if the firewall is activated, but the exchange Server can not receive any emails. I have also created some firewall access rules for the mentioned services but without success.
I would like to create two site-to-site VPNs, one for data and one for VoIP, between the same sites. One end is an ASA 5510 and the other is a third party firewall. Is this possible if I use different sets of IP addresses for each tunnel?
Is it really the case that the ASA will not generate ICMP Host Unreachable messages for sub nets connected to any of its interfaces (in breach of RFC1812) as claimed here: [URL]
I'm investigating a situation where an organization uses ASAs to control traffic between different v lans in their internal production systems as well as Internet traffic. They are having problems with internal load balancing because the ASAs do not (as currently configured) generate Host Unreachable packets. Can this be changed in the configuration or not? I have to say, if it can't then I'd urge them to find something else to route between their internal sub nets.
I have a problem after upgrading the ASA5505 unlimited to 8.4.1, the message shown after startup is:IO memory blocks requested from bigphys 32bit: 9672 It has 512 Mb of ram and this is the view from sh ver:

I have a Cisco RV042 Wired Router. I've got a static IP and a MS Small Business Server in my Router Network. I have forwarded the essential ports to use the IIS and the Exchange Server of my SBS2011 (HTTPS, HTTP, smtp, rpc). I have also created some access rules for these ports, but I don't have any access on my server services, if the firewall is activated.
Here are my Firewall Access Rules from the RV042 Web Interface:
Attached is our network diagram showing the details of our remote office and the corporate side which are connected via private fiber. The workstation (10.10.102.84) can ping the 10.20.0.31 IP address of the PBX but not the .30 address and I know if we can’t ping it we can’t remotely manage it. The 2811 router, ASA 5510 and the 6509-E can ping both IP addresses on the PBX. The ASA logs the error "Denied ICMP type=0, from laddr 10.20.0.30 on interface inside to 10.10.102.84: no matching session" when the workstation pings the .30 address.
We changed the default gateway of the PBX from 10.20.0.2 to 10.20.0.1 (2811 router) and we were able to ping both IP addresses from the workstation but the SIP trunks from the Internet stopped working (they NAT to the .30 address). Because calls may be forwarded from the PBX to the corporate network (via IP phones) we will eventually need to change the default gateway to10.20.0.1 and still need the Internet SIP trunks.
My two questions are, how do we resolve the issue of pinging the .30 address from the workstation and then when the time comes how do we resolve the issue with the SIP traffic reaching the .30 address when we change the default GW of the PBX to the 10.20.0.1 address of the 2811 router.
I'm having problem getting ICMP echo monitoring on outside interface to work. I've set: icmp permit host monitoring_station_adress outside but I still get:
%ASA-3-313001: Denied ICMP type=8, code=0 from monitoring_station_adress on interface outside. I'm trying to directly monitor ip on ASAs interface outside.
I have access-group tied to "in" direction on interface outside. Do I still have to put "permit icmp" rules despite the fact that icmp permit outside command is set?
I have ASA5505 configured with internal network as 192.168.15.0 and default gateway 192.168.15.1 From the inside network, i'm able to access internet and able to ping all website (enabled ping). and all internel network devices can ping each other. Except i cannot ping my gateway (ASA5505) 192.168.15.1. I'm continously seeing this message on the log, when i tried to ping.. How to fix this?
Denied ICMP type=8, code=0 from 192.168.15.xxx on interface inside
replace xxx with my network devices that try to ping the gateway..I dont want outsiders ping my gateway, i need ping for inside internal network only.
I am using a Pix 515 with IOS 8.0(3).I have in my access list on the outside interface.......access-list outside_access_in extended permit icmp any 12.23.34.0 255.255.255.0 echo access-list outside_access_in extended permit icmp any 12.23.34.0 255.255.255.0 echo-reply.......in order to allow ping requests and ping replies into my inside network. This certainly works since I can ping the inside from outside and vice versa, but in the ASDM display of access rules, the hit count for these two lines is always zero. If I run 'show access-list', the hit count for these lines is non-zero.
Why doesn't the hit count show up in the ASDM gui display?Also, I have read that the PIX does not treat ICMP in the same way as TCP or UDP and there is no stateful behaviour towards ICMP. However, if I set up a continuous ping from outside to inside and then disable the above access list rule allowing echo requests towards the inside, the ping continues whereas I would expect it to stop.
In the config there is 'timeout icmp 00:00:02' if there is no stateful connection for ICMP, why is there a timeout value for it?
