How does one allow /31 mask for an management interface on an ASA5540 using version 8.3(1)?
I need to configure a 192.168.x.y /31 on the management 0/0 interface of a ASA5540 and it is providing me with the following error:ERROR: /31 mask is not allowed

I have a ASA5540 firewall set-up with an interface MTU of 1500.
I suspect that we are receiving packets with a larger MTU but have not found an easy way of confirming this. Any command that can be run on the firewall to display the MTU packet size being received on an interface?
We are also running Solar Winds so could query an OID if such a variable exists.

I have a brand new ASA5512-X running 8.6.1, and am trying to do an initial setup using the Quick Start Guide that came with it. However, the Management Interface is not working. I have a PC connected and set to use DHCP, but the port is not active. I connected a console cable and can see in the config that the interface is shutdown. So I set it to active, and the port is now active, but is not giving out a DHCP address as the guide says it should.I would like to use the ASDM Startup Wizard to configure this device, so how do I get it to work the way the instructions say it should?

i have a Cisco ASA 5520 8.4(1) with a ASA 5520 VPN Plus license
i want to use the management interface as a regular interface (using the no management-only command)is this interface a Gig interface as well ?
I am currently doing some research (for my employer) into creating multi-context sub-interfaces on a Transparent ASA 5550.
I have not been able to find any details on this subject which state it is or it is not possible. This will be used for Syslog logging.
I seem to get conflicting information on using the Management port as a regular routed interface on the ASA5510..The management interface can be used for the traffic that passes through the firewall as well. The Security Plus License for the ASA 5510 is required in order to use the management0/0 port as a regular interface. With a base license on the 5510, the management0/0 port cannot be used as a regular interface.
I believe that I saw another post that mentioned it was part of the standard IOS if you had a later version.
I have a 5510 FW in multi-context mode that is showing a high drop count on the Management interface in the Admin context.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've got an ASA 5505 running 6.3 I've connected the management interface to our management vlan (which contains switch IPs, ilo's etc)Is there a way to allow access to this vlan from another?
View 1 Replies View RelatedWe have several pairs of ASA5510s in failover A/P mode, some running 8.3(2) and others running 8.4(1).
e0/0 = outside
e0/1 = inside
m0/0 = management
The problem we're having is we can't get anything to route out of the management interface unless we put in a static route at least to the subnet level. For example, we want syslog traffic to exit out m0/0 to our syslog server 10.71.211.79. Our 'gateway of last resort' points to the next hop out e0/0, and a second static route with a higher metric and a more distinct network space is for m0/0 as in:
route outside 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.49.129 1route management 10.72.0.0 255.255.0.0 10.72.232.94 10
This doesn't work, and ASDM loggin gives this error: ".....Routing failed to locate next hop for udp from NP Identity Ifc:10.72.232.89/514 to management:10.72.211.79/514"
If I put in a more granular subnet route, or a host route of the syslog server it works, such as:
route management 10.72.211.0 255.255.255.0 10.72.232.94 10 <------------- this works
route management 10.72.211.79 255.255.255.255 10.72.232.94 10 <------------- this works too
Why won't a static route for 10.71.0.0 255.255.0.0 work in this case?
We are going to have numerous hosts access and be sent messages though the management interface of these ASAs, and it would be very burdonsome to have to add a host, or even a subnet, route for every one. I've removed all static routes and tried to rely on EIGRP, but that doesn't work. I also had to put 'passive-interface management' under the EIGRP for this to work.
Here is the pertinant ASA config concerning syslog, routing, and interfaces:
interface Ethernet0/0 nameif outside security-level 0 ip address 192.168.49.140 255.255.255.128 standby 192.168.49.141 !interface Ethernet0/1 nameif inside security-level 100 ip address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 255.255.255.128 standby

After I have upgraded our ASA 5510 to 8.4.2 I have problem with the management interface.Our former firmware 8.2.3 had no problem using the management interface as a DMZ zone, but after we upgraded to 8.4.2 we can't make it work.The interface and the protocol is up, when I type: show interface.But when I ping the interface from a computer connectet to the interface, nothing happens.
Even the logging shows nothing.
Why packets overrun are incrementing on the ASA even when I've only 40Mbps of throughput traffic?All interface are 1000- Full Duplex, both on ASA and on Catalyst3750.I've test the ASA5540 generating GET HTTP, about 40Mbit of traffic.When I use one ingress interface and one egress interface, interface input overrun counter is zero.When I use the same traffic with 3 ingress interfaces(slot0) and 3 egress interfaces(slot1), interface input overrun counter increase(60k overrun in only 2 minutes).
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am carving up an internet Class C for customer. This class C is used by 3 distinct QA, Corporate and Production firewalls. I want to carve up IP space so there is a /26 for each environment. The issue I have is the firewalls may need communication with each other via the public IP space. Currently I don’t have any L3 switches in between the firewalls and the edge internet router. So with subnetting, it would seem I need to push everything through the internet router for the intra-firewall communication.I would rather not push this traffic through the edge router, so I came up with an idea to allocate all firewall outside interface IP’s in the 4th (last remaining) /26. That way, I can allow firewalls to communicate over the primary interface IP’s, which will all be in the same subnet – without going through a routing “engine”/device.
For the actual environment subnets (NAT's on respective firewalls), I create a static route on the edge router pointing to each of the firewall’s primary IP’s for the respective environment routes (the first 3 - /26’s).This is still a beta design, but I have done this before on small scale when ISP gave me 2 subnets for example, assuming I was going to put a router in between the customer firewall and ISP. I would use the “routed subnet” on the ASA interface, and then pull the NAT’s from the other subnet. The ISP would have to add a static route directing the NAT subnet to the “routed subnet” correct IP - which would be the firewall outside interface primary IP.I recently found out that with ASA OS 8.4.3 and up, ASA will not proxy arp for IP’s not in its local interface subnet. This means the ISP/router will have to assign static ARP entries on the edge router. This can get messy after the first few NAT entries. So I am debating the design now. I think this kind of stuff going forward won’t be worthwhile with newer ASA 8.4.3 code.
How to communicate between different ASA’s, while still carving up the Class C into usable smaller subnets? The primary reason for doing this in the first place is to support routing on the edge router. I am thinking it might be time to ask for another Class C to do the routing functions, and keep the firewalls all at Layer 2 in one /24 - Class C?
I am getting ready to setup avtice/standby failover on our ASA 5520's and have run in to an issue.I currently only have one External IP address available. My Idea was to use a private/placeholder IP address for the standby external IP Address, will this cause any issues with the failover? I know I won't be able to access the secondary from the outside, but that is not an issue.

Does MAC filtering is required to make a transparent box EAL4 compliant and if so where I can find documentation supporting this?

I have this 2x ASA5540 firewall and notice the it is configured with a standby ip. The firewall is run in Active/Passive mode.However, the standby ip of this firewall is not point to the secondary firewall and vice versa for the primary firewall. [code]
1) May i know how is this configuration valid in the first place? I have checked through the configuration. None of the configuration is related to this ip address.
2) Can we remove this standby ip address on both the firewall and correct to the correct primary and seconadary ip address in both firewall?
3) We tried to use this ip address but cannot be used ? Is it related to the configuration of the standby ip address.Do note that the ping to this ip address x.x.x.120 is unreachable.
i have two CAT3750 need to place in L3, and it supposed that used as L3 switches by SVI for L2 routing, and I want to these two configured as redundancy by HSRP. but now I can only have one ASA5540 to connects these of L3 switches.
so, here is my questions:
1. does ASA5540 support multi vlan?
2. does it support spanning tree protocol?
3. if I've choiced to use trunking between two L3 switches, does it can pass through HSRP hello msg?
4. achive network redundancy
I'm trying to separate my management traffic from regular traffic by splitting the management and "outside" interface to separate vlans but I'm hitting a routing issue. Say I have have a management network of 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 running across vlan 1 and I want to use 192.168.2.0 255.255.255.0 running across vlan 2 for the outside interface to send all the other traffic excluding the management traffic across. Tag both vlans on the external interface, say Eth0/0 Default route of route outside 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.2.1, With this, you can not hit the management interface because there is no route defined for the 192.168.1.0 network. However of course if you try to set one, you'll get the "connected route exists" error. How can I set the default route or gateway of the 192.168.1.0 network on the ASA. Switches just don't complain like the ASA does.

My question is the following : we have a management subnet on a Copper-based switch; we manage all equipments through this network. I planned to configure the management interface on the 6509 to connect this switch & monitor the VSS through it However, since it is a CMP interface, most of the actions (SNMP, IOS upgrade.. won't be possible through this link) Moreover, I don't think LMS would be able to get the configuration through it (except by configuring a script running "attach" command & show run
