Cisco Firewall :: ASA 5520 Not Passing Full Interface Rate Traffic
Apr 12, 2012
I have an issue where our ASA 5520 is impacting upload (from LAN to internet) speed. We have a 100Mbps SDSL internet link and only see around 45-50 Mbps on the upload when going via the firewall, download is around 90+ Mbps so that is acceptable. I have tested a laptop connected directly to the internet router and that give near on the 100Mbps up and down speeds, but if I put that laptop on the LAN or directly onto the firewall interface I only see 90Mbps down and 45Mbps up. I have check that the interface speeds/duplex on the firewall, switch and laptop are correct and also checked there are no errors on the ports. I also turned off the IPS and that made no difference. In addition I have checked the CPU during download/upload (max): CPU utilization for 5 seconds = 9%; 1 minute: 3%; 5 minutes: 1%
In theory the 5520 should be able to cope with this throughput:
Cisco ASA 5500 Series Model/License: 5520
Maximum firewall throughput (Mbps): 450 Mbps
Maximum firewall connections: 280,000

FTP traffic routed from outside to the inside interface works fine. I have another interface with multiple sub-interfaces and vlans configured. FTP traffic routed from the outside to vlan2_servers is not making it through the firewall. I must be missing something. I have attached my config.

after upgrading an ASA 5520 to 8.4.2-8 VPN clients traffic is not passing destinations other then destinations behind the inside interface. the log shows routing failure for the vpn client on the inside interface.it was working fine with 8.4.1 but the traffic is originated from the outside interface. confirm the the interface for VPN clients changed from outside to the inside interface.

I have a site to site tunnel between two 5520 ASAs. Tunnel is up but when I try to talk to the other side, the implicit deny on the inside interface of the local ASA blocks the traffic. When I ping, the tunnel comes up but in the logs it says it is blocking icmp from inside to outside. I have tried the sys opt connection permit-vpn but it is not working. The traffic is from 5 specific machines within the local sub net that I put in a network object group called Celerra_Replication.
I want to them to be able to talk to 5 machines on the far end of the tunnel in a seperate sub net. They are in a net wrok object group called GP_Celerra_Replication The ACLs I created for this appear to be created correctly allowing IP from Celerra_replication to GP_Celerra_Replication and the opposite on the other side.

I am facing a very big problem with site to site vpn on cisco 2900 ios.
I configured the vpn and when i ping from router itself to destination ip with source as lan interface , VPN works, no problem.
but when i connect any computer directly to router's lan interface to initiate traffic , it doesnot work at all. and on computer's lan i see yeloow sign.
mtu is 1500, speed is auto (I tried changing also) , duplex is auto ( i tried changing also) , through firewall on pc should not affect but still i disabled it.
since their is no problem with vpn config as vpn comes up when i initiate ping from router itself but i dont know why it is not working from lan.
do we need any inspect icmp on this router also ? or any policy modification to pass traffic across the interfac on router is required ?
I was useinf c2900k9-15.0(M4).bin and i upgraded it to 15.3 which is lated to get reed of any bug .
I connected two laptops directly to router's gi0/0, g0/1 interface to ping from one laptop to another but this also did not work.

We have a 2911 Router running 15.0(1)M4. G 0/0 is our LAN interface, and it has three subinterfacesG0/0.1 is our data LAN, and the gateway for our Windows machines. This is the interface this question concerns.G0/0.23 is a separate LAN for various equipmentG0/0.192 is another LAN for equipmentG 0/1 is connected to the internet, and has a public address.S 0/0/0 is a T1 PPP, connected to our core data centerS 0/1/0 is a backup T1 PPP, again, connected to our core data center.There are three static routes entered:ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.12.1.1 100 This is the first PPPip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.13.1.1 200 This is the secondary PPPip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 255 It currently has a cost of 255 while i figure this one out. xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx represents the cable company gateway, which I can ping properly. I've also used "gigabitethernet 0/1" in place of the next hop ip with the same results. The public interface is properly connected, and can ping it's next hop (the cable company gateway). When I change the static route for gigabitethernet 0/1 to a cost of "0", the router can properly ping DNS names, such as google.com through the public interface.
However, devices on the data LAN cannot reach any public addresses except for the router's public interface, let alone DNS names (I am using 8.8.8.8 as my test IP). If I revert the cost back to 255, making the PPP the gateway of last resort, these devices can again connect. (they travel through the PPP to our Data center's internet)
This confuses me. If our server, on the same LAN as the router can ping the public interface (it's definitley not leaving the 2911, as latency is less than 1ms), and the router itself can ping outside addresses, what is preventing the router's public interface from passing traffic to the internet from any source other than itself? I have attached our running config in the hopes that there is something obvious I'm missing (the public ip addresses have been changed so they are not exposed). I simply want clients on our 10.23.0.0 LAN to get to the internet via the public interface of the local router, and still connect to corporate resources using the PPP links. MAS_2911#sho run

I'm trying to route all default traffic from my production environment through my ASA 5520 on the "outside2" interface.The 5520 has a site to site VPN to our DR site on the "outside/inside" interfaces via one ISP. On another ISP, interfaces "outside2/inside2" go to the internet.
When I make my 3750 stack default route for the inside2 interface IP I cannot get to the internet. When it is pointed to the inside interface on my 5505, I can.
I get the following errors when I try to open google.com from a production server:Why is the 5520 trying to use the "outside" interface instead of the "outside2" interface to go out?

I have configured multicast (ip pim dense-mode) on two 2911 routers that are connected by a Multilink (3Mbps) Wan connection.The configuration work fine for awhile and sometimes all day but at some point one of the Multilink interfaces stop passing multicast traffic.I perform a sh multilink 1 on the interfaces and one interfaces show the multicast packets incrementing and the other does not, it just stops.The only fix for this is to hard reboot both routers and the multicast traffic begins to flow once again.

We have 2 FWSM modules in each 6500 switches. 1st module is having 04 firewall vlan groups with 18 vlan interfaces in a single context firewall. All are working fine with no issues. Recently we create one more vlan on MFSC and add into the same firewall module. However newly created vlan inside the FW is not able to communicate with outside and also outside users not able to reach newly created subnet. But within the firewall zones (other interfaces) it can communicate. Once we did packet capture we noticed that its hitting firewall outside interface only and when we ping we got TTL expired error. we have default routes to outside and there's no any route inside as new segment is within the firewall (no any hop).
I guess there's no limitation on number of vlans that we can assign on one firewall eventhough there is a limitation for number of vlan-group which is 16 max (but we are within that limit).

Ive got a problem with passing traffic through a Cisco 515e firewall.im trying to telnet to devices on the inside net, 172.16.x.x fom an outside net 10.x.x.x? ive configured a group called infrastructure and added the 10.x.x.x addresses.ive configured acl 101 inbound on the outside interface:
access-list 101 permit tcp object-group INFRASTRUCTURE any eq telnet
theres a route to the inside net:
inside 172.16.0.0 255.255.0.0 172.16.163.1
and theres a translation:
static (inside,outside) 10.4.4.34 10.4.4.34 netmask 255.255.255.255
when i try and connect, using a packet capture I can see traffic from 10.4.4.34 to the inside device 172.x.x.x on the inside interface but i cant see the traffic leave the outside interface ive used the same group infrastructure group before to connect to VM machines on the 172.x.x.x net on RDP and this wrks ok. access-list 101 permit tcp object-group INFRASTRUCTURE object-group VMs eq 3389

We are trying to get a video conference system (POLYCOM) up running. Thrue a Cisco 1812 router with Firewall feature set.
I Have heard in the past that there should be issues with Polycom and Cisco, but have actually never seen it.I can establish a video call from inside the 1812 to outside.
But when I try from outside to the public ip adress there is nattet to, then it reach the video system and die straight after, so there is never any video session set up.
I have tried to remove everything regarding firewall feature and passing true, so the only thing the 1812 should do is NAT. And still the same.
I can not see anything in the log on the router from the ACL's where I permittet everything, other then it connect on the port TCP 1720, as it should. This is the software I'm running on the router:
Cisco IOS Software, C181X Software (C181X-ADVIPSERVICESK9-M), Version 12.4(15)T3, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1)
When I search Google, it look like there is a lot issues with Cisco and Polycom, but I have not found any concret solution. Other then I should use a ADSL line with a public IP address. As we probably is going to do.

So I was doing some testing with my BB Playbook where I wanted to see what outside connections it tried to make during startup and whatnot. I have a pix 506e running 6.3(5). I created an simple 'deny ip any any' access list on the inside interface so that the Playbook doesn't actually make any connections, but I set up a 'capture' on the inside interface accepting 'ip any any' to see what kind of traffic I could see heading outbound from the Playbook. Well, it started off showing attempts to query DNS (and failed, naturally), but then after a couple of minutes, it tried to connect to a couple of IPs over port 443 and actually got a response!!! For the life of me, I can't figure out how this can happen. NO traffic should be allowed outbound due to my explicit 'deny' rule, but for some reason some traffic on port 443 made it past the firewall and got a response back. There are no other rules in the access list except the 'deny' rule. My PIX configuration is quite simple and I cannot see anything that would allow the Playbook traffic to circumvent the access list.
I've come to think that either RIM has found away around Cisco access-lists, or there is a bug in the Pix OS. I know it's an old appliance/OS, but still. I wouldn't think it could be THAT easy to bypass the firewall.

I am trying to determine why Comcast Business Class modem configured with a static IP (IPV4) works with a laptop or Linksys Cable modem but not with a Cisco ASA 5505. After a few minutes, the 5505 stop passing web traffic. I am able to ping the default gateway even though I can not surf the web. Restarting the 5505 and the Comcast modem, web traffic flows for a short period of time, then stops. I can connect inside the firewall via ASDM 7.1.1 and via SSH. I can not connect via either from the outside. Comcast tech support indicated their router is working and is configured in bridge mode. I swapped out the 5505's memory, and then with another 5505. Nothing seems to resolve the issue. I am trying to determine if the 5505 or the Comcast router is not configured correctly.
Here are the parameters: The 5505 was reset to default factory settings via the command: config factory-default. Configured the outside interface with static IP Address followed by the no shutdown command, then removed DHCP features from outside interface. Added Comcast DNS servers, default route, ntp servers, configured DHCP features on the inside interface. Enabled HTTP/SSH (inside & outside interfaces) and ICMP echo-reply (outside only).
I believe the Comcast modem is not configured correctly. The show version and show startup output are below.
ciscoasa# show version
Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance Software Version 9.1(1)
Device Manager Version 7.1(2)

I have configured a vlan interface on a 3750 switch. there is aprox 4Mb active traffic flowing through the interface, but when I do a "show interface vlan (vlanid)" the output show zero bits in and zero bits out. Its a typical L3 config with one IP on the vllan interface acting as the gateway for the VLAN devices. Is this a normal behaviur ? and if so is there any way to get the traffic in/out stats. The end PC/devices are connected to this switch via an L2 TRUNK and I dont have access to the L2 switch on which the actual devices connect. so cant get the real time stats of those interfaces.

I am building a new VPN Anyconnect solution. I want the traffic to enter a interface and that traffic should be forwarded to my "VPN-Machine".
The system is a ASA5520 with old software, I am not at work now so i cannot tell exactly.
So my question is, how do i make the traffic enter one interface and being forwarded to another? I have splitted the physical interface to several sub-interfaces.

We have an ASA that has 3 IPSEC VPN tunnels and standard interenet trafic coming in on Int E0/0 that I need to have go out Int E0/1. E0/1 is directly connected to a Steelhead Riverbed 2020. The Traffic will need to come back out of the Steelhead Riverbed 2020 and into the ASA to Int E0/2. From here it needs to go out either Int E0/3 which is connected to a Catalyst 3560 Switch or back out Int E0/0 though one of the VPN tunnels. I attached a PDF with a diagram if that works.
The reason we are doing this is we have Riverbed's at all our locations and they need to talk to each other to optimize traffic. Is this routing possible any other way than PBR (Policy Based Routing)? I am of the understanding that PBR is not supported on the ASA or PIX.

I have an ASA 5520 with the below config
Gi0/0: outside (Internet)
Gi0/1: inside (Internal users)
Gi0/2: DMZ (web servers, ftp, Mail etc..)
I have a SMTP relay deployed on the DMZ for mailing. I have also a mail servers installed in the internal lan,
I want to allow trafic from dmz to reach internal lan, and i want normally also allow stmp relay from dmz to reach Internet.
How can i block trafic from DMZ to reach Internal Lan (instead of smtp) if the to allow trafic from dmz to internet i must put ANY in the policy?
For allowing trafic from DMZ to reach Internet, the policy must be DMZ -----> ANY ----->Services., this policy means DMZ can implicity reach Internal Lan?

I am doing some per-deployment testing with a ASA5585X and noticed that when I feed it a stream of SYN packets on the outside interface the measured traffic rate on the inside interface going out is about 10x the rate of the outside interface going in.
laptop --- ASA --- PC
I send 6k TCP SYN pkt at interface rate from the laptop targeted at PC. No packets are dropped by Ac Ls or policies and can be sniffed at the PC.
Show interface commands show:
sh int inside:
... ...
Traffic Statistics for "inside":
...
1 minute input rate 23 pkt/sec, 1303 bytes/sec
1 minute output rate 4454 pkt/sec, 820757 bytes/sec
sh int outside:
... ...
Traffic Statistics for "outside":
...
1 minute input rate 885 pkt/sec, 70847 bytes/sec
1 minute output rate 7 pkt/sec, 425 bytes/sec
I would expect that if 885 pkt/sec enter the firewall on the outside interface the same amount or less would exit it on the inside...? Why this is not the case? The packet rate is about 5x and the data rate is about 10x greater.

I have Pix 501 firewall and I'm just configuring the device for "Email Server" to allowing POP/SMTP.
Inside Interface Address: 132.147.162.14/255.255.0.0
Outside Interface Address: ISP provided IP address
My question is can my traffic goes from inside interface to outside interface? (because the inside interface address not from 10.0/172./192.168 private address)Also I'm allowing internet from this email server (132.147.162.14) so what my access list to be configured? and what my subnet mask shoud be there?
Pix(config)#access-list outbound permit tcp 132.147.162.14 255.255.0.0 any eq 80
Pix(config)#access-list outbound permit udp 132.147.162.14 255.255.0.0 any eq 53
Pix(config)#access-group outbound in interface inside

We have cisoc 2821 at one of branch and created five sub inetrfaces for different vlans.Output of Show interface shows very frequent increase in the input error count.I have changed the physical cable and switch port on the other side.But still error rate is increasing.When the traffic is less error rate is low but with high traffic it is increasing drastically.My router process is very less(4%) only.What could be possible reason.

Our Local Network is behind the CISCO ASA Firewall.Whenever we are accessing to Client VPN server,it is getting connected but after few Minutes (May be 5/10/30 Min),the sessions are terminating. The same traffic through PIX is no issue , only with ASA Firewall. See the following Error and request you give the possible root cause for this.

We have a block of addresses assigned to us by our ISP. We need to assign one of these addresses to a vendor we use for traffic to one of their internal devices. Lets say the address we gave them out of that block of addresses is 1.2.3.4
How do I add that address to the outside interface so that when traffic s sent to it that the traffic actually gets to the ASA as right now when we send traffic to that address it doean't make it to the ASA.

I have a vendor that currently uses a Cisco 871 as a VPN router in our company network, they use it connect to provide services to one of the servers in our LAN for our customers. Recently, we are going to be setting up a 24/7 call center with this vendor, they will be accessing a server in our network through the VPN to provide customer service during after hour periods.We have a problem however, with an application that is hosted by another vendor that is critical for our regular company call center. Access is reached with this application through this vendor by way of IPSec VPN tunnel that is built in our company's Cisco ASA 5510. This application is accessed via Internet Explorer that goes across to access the application at the endpoint
I need to figure a way by which the vendor that will be running the 24/7 call center coming through their tunnel in our network to connect over to the tunnel on the vendor on my ASA. Im likely going to have to set some routing of traffic in my internal default gateway router for this to work.

I've got a client that recently got an ASA 5505. E0/0 is connected to the outside, E0/1 connected to the internal server (Win 2008). The ASA "local network" is 172.30.1.0/24; my internal network is 192.168.1.0/24. I'm able to connect from home through AnyConnect and get a proper address (which I've got a pool of 172.30.1.64/26 assigned for VPN users), but no traffic from my computer will go to the internal network, nor will the internal server (or the ASA for that matter) can't talk to my VPN'd computer.
On the firewall settings on the ASA, I've got it all open: any/any on both inside and outside, just to try and get anything to go through. I've even got split-tunneling working, but not traffic-passing! The config is below (redacting local AAA users).

Our ASA 5520 firewall is running 8.0(4) IOS.I have an internal L2L VPN terminating on my firewall (from an internal remote site) on ENG interface.With the default "sysopt connection permit-vpn" command enabled, VPN traffic is allowed to bypass the ENG interface acl.The security level on the ENG interface is set at 50.The security level on the destination interface PRODUCTION is set at 40.Inbound VPN traffic bypasses ENG interface acl and since higher-to-lower security level allows VPN traffic to flow freely from ENG to PRODUCTION, it seems the only place to check/filter VPN traffic is an ACL placed on the PRODCTTION interface and set at INBOUND (outbound VPN traffic).

I've been tasked with retiring a VPN Concentrator 3000 and replacing it with an ASA 5520. I'm trying to get a handle on how to set up the NATs and ACLs, since most of my experience is remote access VPNs, not site-to-site. Plus I've not configured a VPN 3000 in about 6 years so I'm having to re-learn a lot of the interface.
The VPN 3000 has a feature called LAN-to-LAN NAT rules that basically allow you to NAT an address on your internal network to an address on the "local" network for the LAN-to-LAN connection so it can then go through the tunnel to the remote side. The config looks something like this in the VPN 3000: [code]
Which looks to me like a "Static Policy NAT" in ASDM. So I set one of those up, that should be translating 172.16.3.151 on the inside interface to 192.168.200.151 on the inside interface (yes, the same interface) which should then (logically) be picked up as "interesting traffic" by the crypto-map and sent across the VPN tunnel. However, that doesn't seem to be the case - both the "packet trace" in the ASDM and traceroute from the source workstation show the packets getting to the inside interface, and then passed right out the outside interface to the internet router (which then drops the packets as they're a private IP).
what else do I need to do to make the crypto-map pick up the NATted traffic?
