Cisco Firewall :: Changing PIX 515E Failover Interface IPs?
Mar 6, 2011
I am looking to change my Failover Int IPs on my PIX 515E Bundle, Cisco PIX Firewall Version 6.3(5)123 with the least impact on the network.
For example:
interface ethernet5 "state"
IP address 172.18.0.245, subnet mask 255.255.255.252
ip address state 172.18.0.245 255.255.255.252
failover ip address state 172.18.0.246
I want to change these lines to .....
interface ethernet5 "state"
IP address 172.18.0.185, subnet mask 255.255.255.252
ip address state 172.18.0.185 255.255.255.252
failover ip address state 172.18.0.186

Is there a way to wipe a 515e clean and get ride of the Failover Only license and just have a basic licesne loaded? I got this off of ebay and I guess I missed where it said Failover Only, and I would really like to use it.

Turned up a new colo service last week using some PIX 515E firewalls and two Cat 2950 series switches. I have attached a diagram of the layout which I have used elsewhere with good success. Basically I have two switches connected together via port channel (2 ports). The colo facility gives me two HSRP enabled links, of which I plug one into switch A and the other in switch B. The PIxes are a failover pair with the primary plugged into the same switch A as the primary HSRP link.The backup PIX is plugged into the backup switch where the backup HSRP link is. When I unplug the primary HSRP link the PIX can ping the HSRP gateway still, but nothing beyond that. Nothing gets it to work until I plug the link back in.
The only thing I could see that might cause an issue is the 'ip verify reverse-path' command on the PIXes. But even the switches cannot ping out beyond the HSRP gateway. Just seems like all inbound routing stops. I am not sure what the colo facility has going on their side but it seems like they are using just some Cisco 6509s and doing HSRP between them. Seems pretty simple but so far this is proving un-usable as is.
The PIX BTW just uses a default route to the HSRP gateway.

Currently, my customer has 2 units of Cisco PIX 515E running on Active/Standby mode. As for the heartbeat link, there are 2 dedicated switches placed in between both the Cisco PIX 515E i.e. FW1 --> SW1 --> SW2 --> FW2.
My customer will be changing both the Cisco PIX 515E to Cisco ASA 5510. Now, they are asking me, since they will be using Cisco ASA 5510 eventually, can the heartbeat link be a direct UTP cross cable or must the 2 switches in between still exist?
I remember I have tested this before, few years back, in the event I were to pull out the UTP cross cable that's connecting both the Cisco ASA 5510 Firewalls directly (without any switches in between), the Active/Standby mode still works fine. It doesn't go bad whereby both the Cisco ASA 5510 suddenly becomes Active/Active, and causes network issue.
Are switches required for the heartbeat link in a Cisco ASA environment or can a direct UTP cross cable connection be adequate.

I've got a ASA 5550 firewall interface failover issue. (File attached).
when I shut down the inside interface Gi 1/1 of the left firewall(Active firewall), It failed to failover. but when I shut down the Gi 1/12 of the Core 1 switch, The firewall failover very well.
I followed this guide but I was not able to failover. [URL]
how can I configure so that when the Gi 1/1 or Gi 1/0 interface goes down, it can failover ? Code...

I have a PIX 515e running version 7.2(4).I have 2 interfaces - DMZ3 (sec lvl 50) and LAB (sec lvl 100) behind the pix. There is also the OUTSIDE interface (sec lvl 0) which connects to the internet.In DMZ3 I have a webserver - x.x.124.217/24 (host is NATed via static command to public IP)In LAB I have a server - x.x.1.203/24 (entire range is NATed via NAT/Global statements to public IP)The server in LAB needs to access a webserver in DMZ3. From the internet both of these hosts have public addresses that are NATed into the inside addresses. I can reach the webserver from the internet, but not from the LAB interface.I think I have to add a static command so that the LAB host can access the DMZ3 host without accessing the internet.

I have a Cisco ASA 5505 in our office. We are currently using Interface 0 for outside and 1 for inside. We only have 1 Vlan in our environment. We have two three switches behind the firewall. Today the uplink to Interface 1, to the firewall, on the switch went bad. I want to setup a second inside interface on the firewall and configure it as failover incase this happens again. I want to attach it to the other switch. Can I do this? If so, what do I need to do? would it only be a passive/standby interface?

We have an ASA 5520, working fine.One of the interfaces is connected to users PCs and printers mainly. Last months the number of devices has grown rapidly, and we would like to make some changes in it in order for it to be able to host new devices.We thought on change subnet mask of actual subnet (10.0.2.0/24) to 10.0.2.0/23, so it can hold as many devices.I understand I have to make some changes in the ASA, but my question is:What will happend to the acces rules I have created?Will I need to create them again? There are some objects which carry information about subnet mask, so I suppose I will need to redefine them, but for those without any subnet mask information, will I have to redefine them?

We have 2 firewall (ASA5510) pairs. Each pari configured for Active/Stdby mode.
Pair1 : Internet browising, Remote access VPN, Citirx access & L2L VPN access
For this pair , I need to move the 'outside' interface to Gig 1/3 and change the IP addresses. (minimize the downtime)[code] Remove the ip from outside interface and add the new IP and enable to monitor interface outside?

I have two ASA 5540s, ver 8.4 configured in Active/Standby failover.I am also using the redundant interface feature for my Inside interface. Gig0/0 is the active primary and Gig0/1 is standby.
I will activate failover monitoring of the Inside interface using the monitor inside command.
My question concerns the failover monitoring of the redundant interface. If the gig0/0 connection were to fail would the Gig0/1 interface become Active, AND simultaneously result in a full device failover?
Or, does Gig0/1 of the Inside interface redundant pair simply become active and not change the Inside interface device failover state? Thus NOT resulting in a device failover.

From ASA 5520 we tested the interface failover it not working even the interface are getting monitor .
primary is active.
Manually we shut the outside interface of the primary device configuration is getting reflecting in secondary as outside interface shut. Interface failover not happen.
ii All the interface are getting monitor when we gave command sh failover. even though when we shut outside interface failove not happening.
how to do the interface failover in ASA 8.4 version.

Do I correctly understand that when two ASA 5510 are in fail over pair, the switchover from primary to secondary if one interface of primary goes down shall happen ONLY if failover link is up? So when the fail over link is down and one interface on primary got down also, interface tests between the two ASAs still are being done , but secondary SHALL NEVER try to become active.
In this case why to make tests on data interfaces ? What is the reason to make them? If the knowledge of that some interfaces of primary became down comes through failover link - no need to make additional interface tests - primary will tell about the failure to secondary. If so should run no monitor-interface if name command to dis load devices and network by foolish tests?

I am getting this error on my PIX 535 with 8.0.4 code. The error is Error : OSPF/RIP cannot be enabled on failover interface, I am getting this error while trying to enable RIP on the firewall. The context is single mode and failover is enabled. When I am disabling the failover the Firewall is accepting the RIP configurations.

Currently l have two ASA 5520's in a active/passive failover scenario. Currently the interfaces for the inside and outside are fixed at 100/FULL.I want to repatch them into GigE ports setup as Auto Negotiate.Is there anyway of keeping the connections through the firewall active in this type of scenrio or will l have downtime disconnecting and repatching? or could l possibly disable failover and reconfigure each ?

I have a pair of ASA5510s in a failover configuration where I see these 2 logs repeated every 15 seconds.
105008 1 Nov 27 2012 10:39:27 (Primary) Testing Interface management
105009 1 Nov 27 2012 10:39:28 (Primary) Testing on interface management Passed
I have read other threads where these are accompanied by "105005, Lost Failover communications with mate on interface". But I'm only getting these 2. The other thing that is confusing is that the "management" interface is not the failover interface. So why do I see 105008/9 logs about it?
Output of "sh fail":
5510a# sh fail
Failover On
Failover unit Primary

i am trying to find out if it is possible to have a translation rule fail over to a second server if the primary is down on my cisco pix515e.so for instance having an external ip address of 82.x.x.x mapped to an internal ip of 10.x.x.1
If 10.x.x.1 is down then 82.x.x.x should be mapped to 10.x.x.2.The reason i am asking this is i also have 2 css11501 load balancers and would like to have our staging servers primarily sat on one with secondary connectioin to second, production on the other failing over to each other if one is down. The load balancers will be connected to different ports on the same firewall.

I have an ASA 5505 running 8.2
I used the ASDM wizard (6.3) to set up a remote VPN. After slightly adjusting the wizards configuration the VPN is working well.
Now I need to change the Outside interfaces IP address. When I do that the VPN no longer works. If I change it back to the original value the VPN works again.
What configuration changes do I have to make regaurding the remote VPN after changing the outside interfaces IP address?

I have a new router. this seems to be a very simple problem relating to the most basic configuration options.
Hardware Version: A1 Firmware Version : 1.01NA
go to SETUP -> "NETWORK SETTINGS"
change "Router IP Address" to 192.168.73.1
change "DHCP IP Address Range" to: 192.168.73.10 : 192.168.73.200
Save Changes Wait for reboot. change my client system's local IP address... so that I can reconnect. direct web browser to http://192.168.73.1/
seen: login page has a select-box for a userid, but no text inside. there is no prompt to ask me to login. I press enter (or whatever... I login). every form interface on all web pages looked at have no labels on text boxes.
I did a view source... and used web-dev tools to look at the page. it looks like the apparent js function, show_words(), is not defined.
change ip address and dhcp address range back to default save changes. wait for reboot. reverse changes to local system things are back to normal. login page has useful text. after logging in, there is something to read.
looking at source again. I see, now, that the js function "show_words" is defined in a file called public.js.

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

I have the following network.2 WAN links termination on my PIX 515e and all internal users connected to third interface.
Problem I am facing is that I have assign manual IP to users with some have full access to Internet while others have limited.
The users are changing their IP address while others are offline and I want to restrict them.
The only way I can think off is by binding IP to MAC as e.g ( Active wall software). But can it be done on PIX 515e and if so how?
