In our ASA 5520 " tmatch compile thread" process is taking too much CPU while applying ACL for a moment . CPU goes to high and then back to normal .. The code is 8.2(5) . Is this a normal operation or abnormal .
I have a T1 connection to one of my sites, I am running HREAP with 4 AP's. I have been noticing a spike in traffic from my AP's to the WLC. Even when no one is on the wireless. When you use encryption (DTLS) should this cause spikes on the T1 ?
My Wi-fi on my rig seems to have some odd problems. When I'm gaming i often get a lag spike every 10-20 second or so, and before I got the "Vista anti-lag" program I was also getting the enormous 60 second lag spike. I'm sure many Vista users recognize this problem. But here is the deal, the first kind of lag spikes completely disappear while talking on Skype! Which makes me wonder, what is it with Skype (only while talking) that removes the lag? Gaming with Skype makes all games run fluently without any spikes at all.
I am running XP pro. I have checked thoroughly for viruses/malware/etc. and everything appears to be clean. I have up to date drivers for NIC's, have cleared all temp data, done basically everything that the first tier Time Warner Cable(my ISP) tech support people will tell you to do as they read from that frustrating script we're all too familiar with and have had to deal with time and time before, including resetting modem and router, bypassing router, etc. etc. et bloody cetera.Ran several pings to a variety of servers and noticed ping spikes every 10or so seconds into the 300-600 range from an average of about 20-30ms.
We have a Catalyst 3560G 24 port POE switch. It's been running fine for 1+ years. A few weeks ago we enabled SPAN on it to capture packets. Today, we had a random spike in CPU on the switch. Seems hardware swithing continued to work fine, but software based processes choked and effectively took down EIGRP, HSRP, etc. We collect syslogs from the router and we saw 2 crashes/reboots. Both showed the exact same error both times, with the same hex values. I **believe** the CPU usage dropped when a tech disconneted the SPAN port and it's state changed to down, but I'm not 100% sure.Could this indicate an IOS bug (I'm hoping it's not a hardware failure)? And, how to track this down to see if this could be related to SPAN? I've disabled SPAN for now.
I am having a cisco 7609-S router with the image sup-bootdisk:c7600rsp72043-ADVIPSERVICESK9-mz.122-33.SRD7.bin. Im getting above 95% cpu spike for 10 mins in every 2hrs of interval, after it has been integrated with Ciscoworks LMS version 3.2.1 and added this to HUM. In LMS the HUM polling has been configured for every 1hr to monitor the cpu and memory utilization.
I have gone through the below cisco document and I have configured all of the snmp-server view commands as illustrated in the below website.[URL] After configuring the same, now we are observing the cpu spike every 4 hrs or i would say 5 hrs... I have checked all the settings of ciscoworks LMS and there is absolutely no other jobs are running in the day time... The spike comes every 4 hrs.
Recently my connection went haywire , it constantly disconnect and spike when there is 2 computers connected to the rounter but it works fine with 1 computer.contacted the ISP , they sent someone down just to change the modem but the problem still occurs[CODE]
I recently puchased the WMP600N, connects great, I can browse the internet and even download without a problem.But when I try to play games such as world of warcraft, warcraft 3, (basically games that require immediate constant data transfers), I get 2-4 lag spikes every couple of minutes. As you might notice, this is a huge problem for many online games.
We were using ASA-5520-K9 with ASA-SSM-AIP-20-K9 but recently found some hardware problem in our running ASA. Now cisco want to replace with ASA-5520-K8.
I'd like to see some REAL LIFE comparisons of ASA firewall throughput (a bit like this one for ISR G2 Routers - [URL].
The reason I ask is that I recently upgraded a firewall from an ASA5505 to an ASA5520 on a small network where the only outside connectivity was a single 10meg Internet circuit with an IPSEC VPN (not landed on the firewall but on a router) to another site.
When I swapped out the firewall the users noticed a big improvement. The firewall is not doing anything out of the ordinary - no IPS or VPN, just standard state full inspection.
We are using the newest release of AD Agent (1.0.0.32.1, built 598). The ASA Firewalls 5520 are having the software release 8.4(3)8 installed.When somebody tries to connect thru the Identity based firewalls from a citrix published desktop environment (PDI) the connection is not possible. Checking the ip-of-user mapping on the firewalls (show user-identity ip-of-user USERNAME) mostly doesn't show the mapping of the USERNAME and the PDI the user is logged in. The user-of-ip mapping of the PDIs IP-address shows mostly other users, which then are used to authenticate the acces thru the firewalls.
What is interesting, that on the AD Agent using "adacfg.exe cache list | find /i "USERNAME"" i can't see the PDIs IP-address neither because it is mapped to another user.Is Citrix Published Desktop environment supported to connect thru Identity based Firewalls? How AD Agent, Domain Controllers and Firewalls are working together? On the firewalls with "show user-identity ad-agent we see, the following:
Why Cisco does use 1645 and 1646 and not 1812 and 1813?The Listening Port is used for what purpose? we tried the AD Agent modes full- download and on-demand with the same effect.
I try to launch a LAND Attack against my firewall ASA 5520. Everything will work fine. But why, I think it should not work. I use a little tool where I can user a spoofed address, with a cluster shell and attack the firewall interface with the source of 127.0.0.1 ore the ip address of the interface as the source and destination. Then I get a cpu load of 89% with only two host. With IP tables I can use kernel processes to prevent this. But I don´t find anything for ASA.
Two different WAN links get connected to the firewall via two routers.(Different ip subnets).I need to get this two wan streams seperatly to the core switches.Core switches sits.Active/Stanby senario. If the Active core goes down Stndby Core will have take over the traffic. My design is correct ,if not what do i need to change. ASA is 5520.
I have a serious problem with my corporate firewall, witch is an ASA 5520, fv 8.3, with 8 +1 interfaces. It suddenly started to crash every 10/20 minutes and rebooting alone.
First of all I checked system resources witch are in a very low usage state. I also checked interfaces errors, but nothing strange come out o from error counters analysis. I tried disabling logging and all the service policy rules configured, but nothing changed.
Nothing changed and firewall continue restarting by itself.
Last logs I received before crash were:
%ASA-4-711004: Task ran for 35 m sec, Process = Dispatch Unit, PC = 84a619e, Call stack = %ASA-4-711004: Task ran for 35 m sec, Process = Dispatch Unit, PC = 84a619e, Call stack = 0x084A619E 0x084A6512 0x084A70E1 0x084A7987 0x084A7AAA 0x08558B9B 0x08558E8A 0x083D3518 0x083CA145 0x080659D1 0x089196D9 0x08919790 0x089FF711 0x08A27468

we are having a firewall asa 5520 .we have connected the management port and inside port to internal network and dmz port to dmz network.now we need to configure tacacs and other management tool on dmz devices through management port. The problem is the management devices tacacs and other are placed in internal network.
I have an ASA 5520 in my company which does all our NAT and Firewall access control. Currently there is a rule in place to allow an incoming connection on port 2222 from a specific ip address to allow access to a web app our developers created. This is a test before the web app is released live. Now the web app can communicate with the specific address and port but the incoming connection on port 2222 isn't getting through. Everything looks great in the firewall but how can I log any hits this ACL takes to identify any potential problems?
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.

I have problem in the configuration of Cisco ASA 5520, IOS version 8.4. The connection is as follows: LAN network--> Firewall --> Routers with GLBP with virtual ip address. the clients can not ping the virtual interface of the GLBP group, but I can ping it from the firewall, and I can ping the clients from the firewall, I checked the packet tracer it gives :
Phase: 7 Type: NAT Subtype: Result: DROP Config: nat (inside10,outside) source dynamic LAN interface Additional Information:(code)
Two days ago, we changed our old 525 with asa 5520 ( ver 8.2 ). Configuration is the same, except the version. It even retains the same global interface and static public ip address as the old device.All worked well during that period.
Yesterday, one of the http applications , not tested other day, was found not to be working. To test, we switched back to the old 525 , however nothing was working when we did that.
We have configured 20 route in ASA 5520. The CPU usage goes to 100 % at the moment when we add a specific route.route inside 10.254.101.0 255. 255. 255.0 10.254.102.254 1.This is the same case when we add this route at the first cli or as the 10th cli or the 21 cli (errespective of the position of cli) There is an another route out of which 20 routes we have configured is route inside 10.254.103.0 255.255.255.0 10.254.102.254 1.The normal case if we dont add the problamatic route , then the CPU utilization is only 2 %.
Currently we have one ISP1 and all traffic goes to this way. Suppose our isp1 goes down, our outside user cant get the server. All servers are nated to this ISP1.We planned to purchase a another ISP2. Shall we Configure same inside server to map this ISP2? so that one primary ISP1 goes down it will take place the outside trafficISP2.
On one of our firewalls we hosting a application/service which impacts clients and we recently conducted a Pen test, the external company doing the Pen test have advised us that there is a vulnerability relating to OpenSSL. We have checked the server and there is no OpenSSL installed so the only place where it could be picking this up is on the ASA, is this correct?Here is the report from the company that conducted the test:4.3 Network Security An outdated OpenSSL package was identified that was vulnerable to a heap corruption bug that may be exploited by an attacker to acquire command execution on the host, or to create denial of service conditions. Table 7 provides an overview of the risk identified per network assessment category, along with recommendations for resolving the issues identified. Category
Risk Summary Recommendations Patch Management High
The OpenSSL package installed on one host was identified as being outdated and subject to a heap corruption bug. Update the outdated / vulnerable OpenSSL package to the latest stable version. We have an ASA5520 and running the following version: Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance Software Version 8.2(5)2 How do we check the OpenSSL on the ASA and secondly do we need to update the ASA software version ?
I want to see log for write on ASA5520. who & when write lastly and who write before. How to see this log. In show vershon i see last modified date, but not log.
Is it possible to setup 2 x Cisco ASA 5520 that are in an Active/Standby failover using sla monitoring?
For example ASA1 outside interface connects to an upstream switch and you setup sla monitor with icmp echo to ping that switch. The switch goes down and you need the other ASA2 to become the Active ASA. Can the sla monitor be automatically integrated with the failover commands for this to happen?
We want to make an upgrade of one of our customers' ASA 5520 (with failover). They have version 8.2 now and we want to get the more stable newest one. Can we get an 8.6 version? or we need an ASA 5500X for that one?
I am currently getting DoS/DDoS on my asa 5520 , the attacker is hitting IP's that are not even open on any port. The attack is filling up the queues on the firewall which is at 99% CPU during the attack. here's the NetFlow info that I was able to get from my ISP ( since I dont have a Router to do that ). [code]
