On FWSM (running version 4.1 in my case) the default global policy uses the following class map:class-map inspection_default match default-inspection-traffic
What "default-inspection-traffic" includes? Is it all traffic? If so, do I really want all my traffic to go through the inspection engine? I would imagine this would have a performance impact on traffic that is not part of the protocols being inspected.
i have removed the icmp inspection from my default policy-map in my ASA 5520,now i could not able to ping to 4.2.2.2 from my LAN even though i have configured an ICMP Access-list in my asa like ,but I can't ping 4.2.2.2 for testing the Internet connectivity,what shall i do to allow only my self as admin to ping outside?

By default ASA applies DNS packet inspection with a default (maximum) packet size of 512bytes as recommended by RFC 1035, anything above is dropped.
I have a customer that is trying to use larger packet sizes due to extension mechanisms for DNS defined in RFC2671.
My question is , is it safe to increase the default packet size in the DNS inspection thus applied globally for all DNS traffic, or should / can we apply a policy that applies only to this specific customer ?
I was under the impression that all Cisco ASA firewalls shipped with a default inspection policy.
Example
policy-map global_policy
class inspection_default
inspect dns preset_dns_map

can I build this myself? Why is it missing (I have two other ASA 5505s here that also do not have it). What would I do to rebuild it?
I can't find any specific information on the implementation of packet inspection in a zone based policy firewall. In other words, is there a specification or even just a set of values that define the default inspection parameters for all protocols? With DPI I can manage 'some' of the inspection capabilities but I have some fairly rigorous and specific requirements to meet and I need to validate that the IOS ZBFW will meet those requirements. Specifically, I'm interested in HTTP, DNS, and ICMP but all other protocols would be useful as well.I'm working with basic routers; 871's, 2811's, 1841's, etc. The IOS in use in most cases is adventerprisek9-mz.151-3.T.

On all my pairs of 6509s where I have FWSMs bundled (6509-A has FWSM-1 is Slot 1 and 6509-B has FWSM-2 in Slot 1) I also have a port channel 305. Obviously when I do a "show run" or "show int desc" I don't see anything in slot one. It's a service module. But the port channel is referencing ports 1/1-6. And it's all in service/up. I was about to delete this as I thought it was some leftover config (TEST 6509s) until I went and saw the same things on our PROD 6509s. Is it cosmetic? Necessary? Can I delete it as part of my audit cleanup? Don't want to mess with it even in TEST without some information. Nothing on google that's clear and I can't find anything on CCO.

I want to set up FWSM 4.1 on Cat6509 with multiple bridge groups in one transparent context. (as the manual says it can support up to 8 bridge-groups and the intent is to save security contexts) For a host in VLAN21 (b1_inside) to talk to a host in VLAN41 (b2_inside), traffic needs to be go out to MSFC which routed back the traffic through the FWSM. My question is how can I define a default route per bridge-group, I would assume FWSM should take the following two default routes per bridge-group interface but it won't;
route b1_outside 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.11.75.1 1
route b2_outside 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.11.76.1 1
seems like it allows only one default route per the context and gives me an error - "ERROR: Cannot add route entry, possible conflict with existing route"
How can I achieve outside per individual bridge-group?
FWSM context config:
Interface VLAN11
nameif b1_outside
bridge-group 1
security-level 0
!
Interface VLAN21
nameif b1_inside

We have a problem with some websites being blocked every now and then. Everyone inside can access this external website for weeks, and then suddenly it's not available for a few hours, and then it comes back. All without me making any changes to the firewall, ASA5510. The external website that has nothing to do with us can be accessed from anywhere outside our network, example on my iphone through Verizon.
We have not set up any rules about blocking websites, all I found was the Default Service Policy. After backing up and then deleting the rule we are able to access all sites.
The network gods recently updated our 6500 and upon reboot, the FWSM booted to CF:1 maintence partition,which caused an immediate outage. On the router, I ran the following command to set the default FWSM boot partition to the configuration with:Router#boot device module 4 cf:5 However, it appears the "show boot device" command has been replaced with "show bootvar" which doesn't show me which partition the router will boot the FWSM to. Is there a command I can run from the Router that will actually confirm the boot partition for the FWSM if the router reloads.

How do I remove this default isakmp policy. I am not running 12.4(15)T1 so the no crypto isakmp policy default does not work. Is there any way other than upgrading the IOS?

Maybe if there is a command to limit the number of isakmp policies the router checks, that would eliminate this default policy being matched?
I have multiple customers and servers behind my ASA5510s. After moving a new customer with an FTP server behind the firewalls, they immediatly had issues with customers connecting to their FTP server. I had the default inspection rules running regarding FTP. After removing the "inspect ftp" from the global policy their issues went away. Since this is a larger customer I can't force them to change their server, I need to accomodate and fix this on the firewall. I left the "inspect ftp" command out and there have been sporatic issues from other customers, unable to connect to outside FTP servers from the terminal servers and timeouts and disconnects to our own FTP servers.
This is what I "think" is the solution.. I added a second inspection policy after the default one and only added "inspect ftp" to it. Then I used the "exclude" option to exclude the new customer. That new customer is fine and things are better, but still not working right. Does the following config accomplish what I want?? Does the exclude ACL get what I need or do I need an "include" or permit statement in that ACL?

ASA 5520 running 8.4.5:We had an issue with a remote SMTP connection getting screwed up as a result of ESMPT inspect.It took me 3 hours of troubleshooting the SMTP connection before finally figuring out that the firewall was the culprit. What really through me off was that I saw nothing in the ASA logs (warning and above) that showed packets were being dropped. I'm probably crazy but I thought I remembered seeing entries in the log when packets were dropped due to a type of inspection (specifically, I remember entries in the log saying something to the effect of packet dropped due to ESMPT inspect, packet too big). My quesiton to Cisco TAC was: Is there a simple way to have the log give a warning every time a packet is dropped due to any inspection rule, just like we can see any drops due to ACLs? So far the only answer has been a complex list of log changes to allow debugging and notifications of certain events. This isn't something I want to roll out to all my ASAs.

We have several customers running ASA 8.4x code and all seem to be plagued with the ESMTP inspection bug CSCtr92976.I have tested this in the lab with an ASA 5505 running 8.4(1), 8.4(2) and 8.4(4)1 & 8.4(4)3 and the behaviour is always the same.

This is with the default ESMTP inspection enabled. I have also created a custom ESMTP inspection policy that does nothing but log and the behaviour is still the same. Sometimes traffic will pass but most of the time it won't. The workaround is to just disable the ESMTP inspection.

(This suppose to be Call-ID: 2a54f680-a5d1de2a-160c-164070a@10.7.100.1)The inspection should change the Call-ID for the incoming packet as it did with the outgoing packet.

I am having issues with PXE boot images for PCs cannot be loaded from remotely.The diagnosis revealed that SunRPC & TFTP were being inspected by ASA causing drop of packets.So I excluded these two inspections for the particular server behind the firewall. It seem to resolve the issue for instance but it crawled back again.
Is there a way that the inspection can be turned off for that particular server at the IP level?
I have a branch office set up were all traffic goes back to the core, iincluding internet acces.
It has been working fine for a year, but recently I have started to see the firewalls Asa 5505 closing the connection and stopping the phone from answering the calls.
I have skinny inspection turned on all my branch offices, but had to turn it off at the one site to get one of my phones to registered.
I haven't made any changes to the network that would trigger this issue, such as upgrading phone firmware.

It's turned on my 5 other branches.How can I debug why the skinny inspection is closing the connection?As a separate note this phone is part of a pool of phones that shares a common DN, would this be causing the issue?

verify if the ASA 5520 CSC module way of applying security policy (http, smtp, pop3, etc.) is per network/subnet or group of users? Based on my understanding through reading, web and email protection profile/config is global. It will be the same to every network user that is redirected via service-policy config on the ASA.

I have a client that is running an ASA5512-X. When I initially installed it, they were having issues sending out emails. I disabled ESMTP inspection and thought it resolved the issue. Recently, they upgraded to Exchange 2010 and are still having an issue with some emails getting hung up in the queue. If I watch the ASA when they try to telnet to the external mail servers that do not work, they get a SYN timeout.
I am not sure why this would happen since ESMTP is disabled. They are running 8.6(1) on the ASA.
I'm looking fot a way to do static URL blocking with ASA and when the URL is blocked present a "Web Page" to the user saying that it's been blocked.
So, i was wondering if i can use the http parameter "spoof server string" to replace the original URL sent by the user for another URL that points to an internal web server holding a basic page saying "Your URL request has been blocked".
The point is to have a way to tell users that the page they are trying to browse is blocked by a policy.
I am having an issue with an ASA 5510, running 8.4(1) code, causing outbound mail to remain in the SMTP server queue (Exchange 2007). This only happens with some remote mail servers. The connection usually ends with the remote server eventually sending a TCP reset.
I've taken multiple inside and outside packet traces.Other trace's contain either X's preceding various sections of the stream content or all X's in the content. The X's only appear when inspection is enabled.
Disabling inspection is the only thing that seems to allow mail to flow. I find this curious because I'm running this same ESMTP policy on other ASA's. However, they are on 8.3 code.
Most everything I find when searching on this subject says to disable ESMTP inspection. [code]
I got a problem yesterday with a customer that says that the calls from a CISCO IP Phone 7961 to an Alcatel 4018 IP Touch didn't work, well the phone rings but there's no voice; I manage a CISCO ASA version 8.2(1) and I was checking the Inspection Rules in the Service Policy Rules section and when you open the inspection_default at the Rule Actions tab I find that the H.323 H.225 and H.323 RAS box wasn't checked so I ask to the customer to made a test and the same problem happen so I checked both box and again ask to the customer for a test and it works.

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).
