I am trying think of a better way to provide redundancy on some internally protected networks. We maintain our own WAN/backbone between our primary site and backup site. Is it possible to have two Cisco ASA 5550s in setup for failover at completely different sites as long the networks connected are available?
View 3 RepliesI discover an issue with my CISCO ASA 5550 because I'm looking at the vlans that I have configured and some vlans on the Stand by device had not an IP address configured, checking the configuration of the failover
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am having a curious problem with two Cisco ASA 5550. They are configured in Active/Standby failover and in routed mode.The problem is: I cannot connect via SSH to the ACTIVE unit, only to the STANDBY. If a switchover is forced the problem is still the same. because it happens both with the primary and the secondary unit.It is not a L2 or a transport problem, because I can ping or access both units via ASDM.
View 8 Replies View RelatedAccording to Cisco, one of the ASAs must have an Unrestricted License [URL]:
"On the PIX/ASA Security appliance platform, at least one of the units must have an unrestricted (UR) license. The other unit can have a Failover Only Active-Active (FO_AA) license, or another UR license. Units with a Restricted license cannot be used for failover, and two units with FO_AA licenses cannot be used together as a failover pair."I am unfamiliar with the different ASA licenses, so with my current license, I am unable to enable failover on my two ASAs. Here is a snippet of the "show version" output on one of my ASAs (they are the same as far as licenses go):

I've two Cisco ASA 5550 firewall. I'm don't have much knowlege on configuring this kind of firewall. I need configuring these firewall for simple NAT. I have 3 public IP address. I would like to allow server's inside of the firewall to be able to connect to internet using private address. A basic NAT. Also need to configure some port forwarding. We've bought two firewall for the Active/Active failover support. How can i configure this through ASDM? My ASDM version is 5.2.
View 1 Replies View RelatedSince the "zero-downtime upgrade" is not supported, I would like to validate the process I put together for upgrading a failover pair of asa5550 with the characteristics below. Specifically I am concerned with the role of the standby during the upgrade. This is my setup:
.- single context mode
.- active/standby
.- current firmware asa821-k8.bin / asdm-621.bin
.- role: firewall and VPN concentrator for segmented server farm network. Dynamic/static/exemption NAT heavily used.
My target is asa842-k8.bin / asdm-645.bin and I am doing a two step upgrade (8.2(1) -> 8.3(1) -> 8.4(2)) to avoid the "unidirectional" attribute and CSCtf89372 bug issues. This is a short version of what I have in mind:
.- Verify stability of failover pair and make adequate backups before beginning.
.- plug into the console of active, ssh into active and standby.
.- vpn/act(config)# no failover ( disable failover from active )
[Code]....
After reboot, point to 8.4(2) and reload again. Same concern regarding the standby unit.
I understand there might be configuration tweaks needed to the NAT configuration. After second reboot test connectivity and if successful, on active "failover", "write standby" and "failover reload-standby". Otherwise "downgrade" and back to the drawing board.
I configured ASA 5510 using dual ISP( Failover). Now my ASA working fine. Here my problem is My ASA 5510 configured for Site to Site VPN also.How my VPN switch to Secondary ISP automatically when primary ISP fails.

We have site-site-VPN set up between the two and everything works fine except we can’t ping the Site1 PIX from internal IP. However, I can ASDM/SSH in from HQ to the external IP of the Site1 PIX.
HQ is using an ASA 5550 (172.1.0.1) PC from HQ (172.1.64.x) Site1 is using a PIX-515E (172.2.0.1) PC from Site1 (172.2.64.x)

Everything was working fine until we recently changed the outside IP address for Site1 because we switch to a different ISP. Nothing changed on the HQ ASA or Site1 PIX other than the outside IP address on Site1 PIX. I did rebuild the site-to-site VPN tunnel between Site1 and HQ.
I've got a ASA 5550 firewall interface failover issue. (File attached).

how can I configure so that when the Gi 1/1 or Gi 1/0 interface goes down, it can failover ? Code...
I am configuring Site-to-Site VPN with another company. I already make a couple of tunnels but with this one I have a problem. They I already using on their side my local network 192.168.10.0/24 (server is 192.168.10.10) so we need to use imaginary network 172.16.0.5 as server address. Now I need to do NAT 172.16.0.5 to 192.168.10.10 but I am not so good in that.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a scenario whereby I need to add a second VPN tunnel to a Cisco ASA, however its peer address will be on the outside2 interface on the remote firewall.
we have ASA1-HQ 5505
Inside address - 172.16.20.0
Outside1 - 1.1.1.1
Outside 2 - 2.2.2.1
ASA2-DC 5510
Inside Address- 172.16.30.0
Outside1 - 3.3.3.1
Outside2 - 4.4.4.1
There is currently a VPN tunnel between 1.1.1.1 and 3.3.3.1. I need to add a 2nd VPN tunnel utilising outside2 addresses 2.2.2.1 & 4.4.4.1 respectively.
I have labbed this out, however i cannot get traffic going down to the 2nd VPN tunnel. I have created the following routes on each firewall
ASA1-HQ
Outside1 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 1.1.1.2 (metric 1) (Next hop for outside1 interface)
Outside2 4.4.4.1 255.255.255.255 2.2.2.2 (metric 1) Peer address of 2nd vpn tunnel)
ASA2-DC
Outside1 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 3.3.3.2 (metric 1) (Next hop for outside1 interface)
Outside2 2.2.2.1 255.255.255.255 4.4.4.2 (metric 1) Peer address of 2nd vpn tunnel)
I have tried adjusting the Crypto map Priority values however this has made no difference. One theory I have is the local addresses potentially would need to be on a separate network in order for traffic to traverse the 2nd VPN tunnel.
the crypto maps i have created are:
ASA1-HQ
Outside1 (Priority10) S 172.16.20.0 /24 D 172.16.30.0/24 Protect ESP-3DES-SHA Peer 3.3.3.1 (Nat T Enabled)
Outside2 (Priority 1) S 172.16.20.50 /32 D 172.16.30.50/32 Protect ESP-3DES-SHA Peer 4.4.4.1 (Nat T Enabled)
ASA2-DC
Outside1 (Priority10) S 172.16.30.0 /24 D 172.16.20.0/24 Protect ESP-3DES-SHA Peer 1.1.1.1 (Nat T Enabled)
Outside2 (Priority1) S 172.16.30.50 /32 D 172.16.20.50/32 Protect ESP-3DES-SHA Peer 2.2.2.1 (Nat T Enabled)

View 0 Replies View RelatedI am building a site to site VPN from our headquarters to a customer. I am using an ASA 5520. The customer is using Cisco 3945 routers. The customer has two VPN termination points. The customer requests that we make one of their termination points the primary VPN connection and make the other termination point the backup in the event that the primary VPN fails. How do I configure this on the ASA? Does the below configuration fulfill this goal?
View 3 Replies View RelatedWe have 3 sites, with a Cisco ASA 5520 at each location.
HQ (Headquarters) internal network: 172.16.110.0/24,
DR (Disaster Recovery) internal network: 172.16.120.0/24
BO (Branch Office) internal network: 172.16.150.0/24
HQ and DR have a 100Mbps permanent MPLS link between each other.Branch Office has a Site 2 Site VPN connection to HQ. If it fails, it establishes a Site 2 Site VPN connection to DR. This works perfectly.Now the routing issue... There is no route to the BO in the routing table at HQ/DR. The default gateway is used to reach the BO and that works for HQ when the VPN is between HQ/BO. If the VPN fails over to DR/BO, HQ can't reach BO anymore.I need to have some kind of conditional route injection from the ASA where the VPN is established. I was considering a tracked static route, but I was wondering if the S2S VPN itself has a functionality to do so. I thought the Reverse Route Injection was it but it's enabled on our crypto map and doesn't seem to work...
One local site where i have one ASA5520 . I have to create a site to site vpn with the remote site1 and site 2.vpn with site1 is primary and other is backup. local address on ASA is 192.168.10.10 and on the remote site1 and site2 is 10.10.10.1.I have to make sure that if vpn with the site1 is active then the routing for 10.10.10.1 should be towards vpn to site1. and if it goes down then failover to vpn2 to site 2.In case if the vpn1 to site1 comes up, the traffic should shift to VPN1 to site1.Access is from ASA5520 end client to the remote server.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI am using the Cisco ASA 5520 with Software Version 8.2(3). I have several site-to-site VPN connections and two separate ISP connections. I have set up the SLA tracker for the dual ISP so that if one fails the other one takes over. But I don't know how to do the same for the site-to-site IPSec VPN tunnels. I have read a few discussions on the Cisco Support Community but I am really confused about what to do. I have two outside interfaces: outside and WAN2. I understand you can only apply the crypto to one interface so how would I make the change to allow the VPN to failover when the primary ISP were to fail?
Here is my configuration for the cryptos and SLA tracker:
crypto map outside_map 10 match address ACL_VPN_1
crypto map outside_map 10 set pfs
crypto map outside_map 10 set peer x.x.x.x x x.x.x.x
crypto map outside_map 10 set transform-set NAME_SET
crypto map outside_map 10 set security-association lifetime seconds 28800
crypto map outside_map 10 set security-association lifetime kilobytes 4608000(code)
I have configured ISP failover on ASA 5510 its working fine, when Primary ISP fails, Traffic is shifting to secondary ISP. On the ASA i have configured Site to Site VPN its working fine on primary ISP, when failover happens to the secondry ISP. Site to Site VPN should work on the secondry ISP.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a customer with active/standby on a pair of 5510's with the CSC modules. They were inquiring about the AIP/ASA, and since this would NOT work in their current setup, would getting a pair of 5510/AIP configured for transparent failover work placed in front fo the existing units? Would I need to have a switch placed between the AIP and CSC ASA's? Or would I setup the ASA's for context based Active/Active failover to interconnect the ASA's to the existing units, but I still see a need for a switch.

i two 5550 firewall set up for redundance purpose . in failover we define two different ip add one for primary and one for secondary .interface Ethernet0/0 nameif outside security-level 0 ip address xxxx.0.0.0.1 255.255.255.0 standby xxxx.0.0.2!interface Ethernet1/0 nameif inside security-level 100 ip address 10.0.0.12 255.255.255.0 standby 10.0.0.11.default gateway for host will be 10.0.0.12 (primary fw address) however in case of failover , the secondary fw will be up with ip address that was assigned for primary .in this case the secondary ip add 10.0.0.11 is actually nerver used? similarly do i need to have two public ip address for outside (one for primary and one for secondary ) ? or in case if primary fails the secondary comes onlie and take the ip of primary fw . hence i only need to purchase just one ip address.

I have a request to establish a site to site VPN with a customer. While collecting the information I give them our local network subnet which is a private subnet (192.168.5.0). They asked me if I could give them a public address instead. They can not work with the 192.168.5 subnet. Is this possible?
My side of the VPN is an ASA 5505 running 8.2(2). The other side i believe is a Checkpoint.
Got an ASA5505 connected to another endpoint running IPsec and being NAT'd at each end to a 10.0.0.0/24 network. I can pass other types of traffic through the ASA 5505 but not RTP traffic. The moment it is NAT'd and hits the firewall rules it gets denied by the default deny at the bottom of the list.
Currently the rules are as follows
Incoming External
allow ip any any
allow tcp any any
allow udp any any
default deny

It wont allow us to setup a voip call...however when the same call manager sets up a voip call NOT using this ipsec tunnel it works just fine.

The problem is the clients behind the Cisco ASA (192.168.2.x) cannot reach certain ports behind the Router (192.168.1.x). The main thing we're trying to do is browse via UNC path (ex: \192.168.1.120 from a 192.168.2.x machine).

I believe it has something to do with the way NAT and route-maps are setup currently but I'm not familar enough with them to make the changes. I worked with Cisco to ensure the VPN tunnel was fine and it's something security related on the Router.
