Cisco Firewall :: FWSM ACL / NAT With 6503
Jan 15, 2012
We recently deployed a FWSM on our 6503-e boxes (w/ sup720). NAT is working (PAT) but the issue I am seeing is private traffic from remote sites is not being allowed through the FW. I was able to get the remote site to ping the FWSM itself (inside address), but no hosts behind it. Maybe an ACL issue? Also when I turn off NAT on the remote end, I can than access everything (We are NATng on both ends). Im a routing guy by nature so I will defer this to the security guys out there.
Topology
Hosts (inside/10.15.25.0/24) > FWSM (outside/public IP) -> Core Router -> MPLS CLOUD -> Core Router (NATng) - > Hosts (192.168.1.0/24)
ACLs applied to inside/outside interface
FWSM# show access-list ATX-ALLOW-IN
access-list ATX-ALLOW-IN; 15 elements
access-list ATX-ALLOW-IN extended permit tcp any any (hitcnt=222)

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).

I've got a 6503, SupII/MSFC running Native code, so I'm pointing the boot variable to disk0: (bootflash is not large enough for the image file). In using the wr erase, the boot variable is getting wiped as the wr erase removes all nvram files, and apparently the boot variable is stored there. I also tried the erase start, which also hits everything in nvram.
So, any clean way to wipe a config without forcing the router into ROMMON to reset the boot variable, or do I need to just expect that is part of the standard approach?

I want to upgrade a pair of FWSM in active failover from 4.0(4) to 4.1(8) i just want to double check the process. i have tftp access to the primary at the minute. i cannot access the same tftp server with the standby. do i need flip over to the standby to be able to tftp the image across?
failover activehostname# changeto system
hostname# copy tftp://x.x.x.x/c6svc-fwm-k9.4-1-8.bin flash:image
hostname# copy tftp://x.x.x.x/asdm-622f.bin flash:asdm
hostname# reload
Once i have the images loaded i reload both at the same time?[URL]

I am planning for an VSS in Core but firstly I need to upgrade FWSM which is at 3.2 Ver to 4.0.4 (min release) I have checked software dependencies but not sure about Hardware Dependency on Fwsm and Chassis for Eg. Rommon Upgrade on Chassis.

I want to migrate a Cat 6503-E VSS to Cat 6509E VSS. We plan to use the same supervisor that we have on the Cat6503E, for minimizing the configuration change on the Doing this, the vss link will need to be changed, due to the fact that the supervisor slot will change with the Cat 6509, slot 5 instead of 1.
Question: is there a way to just change the vsl-link interface on a existing VSS ?

I have an issue with a customers 6503 with Sup-2T cards, where we are locked out of the console due to an authentication configuration error. So tried several times to get the card into rommon, with no success.
Checking through the various documents on CCO I dont find any reference to rommon on this card, but do find information on using the CMP to support the supervisor. I logged into the CMP but couldn't find a way from there to do a password reccovery either.So, is the `normal' IOS rommon/password recovery method supported.

We have a pair of 6500s with Sup720 running 12.2(33)SXI3. Each has an ACE-20 (s/w A2(2.0)) and FWSM (s/w v3.2(15)). We have reached a limit on the number of rules we can configure on the FWSM, and have determined that we shall upgrade to 4.1(5), with ASDM to 6.2(2)F. A question has been raised regarding the s/w on the ACE-20 modules. Do we need to upgrade them as well?

ASA code 8.3 and higher uses NAT objects and totally changes the NAT rule config. I am new to FWSM .... but was wondering if this comparable ? I am lookinig at upgrading FWSM 3.1(16) to a higher 4.1 version .... but have a feeling this could be a huge task if NAT config changes as with the ASA's

am trying to config a FWSM by ASDM 6.2f.there are formerly configured interfaces and new interfaces i created.when i add a new access rule it gets added only to all the old interfaces but not to the new ones i created.
1. what wrong with the new interfces i created?
2. whats the logic of auto adding a rule to "all" interfaces , the rules are incoming rules specific to interfaces or groups , why add the to the rule to "all" intefaces?.

We would like to decommission our FWSMs and upgrade to the ASA 5555Xs. This leads me to ask the following: What would be the most efficient way of doing this without any interruption to production? How to successfully accomplish this?

our FWSM (in 6509) is not coming up, when tried to sesssion up using "Session slot 1 proc 1" command,It is giving error , "Tyring 127.0.0.11 .....connection timed out remote host not responding".
In "show mod" command output at Switch in IOS console: under Card Type Section: it is showing Model & Serial Number correctly, Under MAC address sectino: displaying some MAC address But in Online Diag Status, it showing "Unknown" for Module 1.
We tried re-seating in other slots, but of no use. Giving same error. Some of other forms are saying it is the issue with 128 Mb CF image problem, FWSM is no more reachable from 6509 IOS console. We even tried using FWSM console (using PC-Conse & LCP Console) but FWSM is not contactable.

I think I got a strange behavior on a context of my WS-SVC-FWM-1 (on a Catalyst 6509 running IOS 12.2(18)SXF17a) that is running FWSM Firewall Version 4.1(3). This context sends these log messages every ten minutes:
Jul 17 2011 23:31:16: %FWSM-6-302010: 0 in use, 0 most used
Jul 17 2011 23:31:17: %FWSM-6-302010: 2245 in use, 107133 most used
[code]...
If I issue the "show conn" three seconds later the log message, the output I got is: FWSM# sh conn 1041 in use, 107133 most used
In another context on the same FWSM the log message sent every ten minutes is just this one:
Jul 17 2011 23:31:17: %FWSM-6-302010: 1358 in use, 72503 most used
Jul 17 2011 23:41:22: %FWSM-6-302010: 1590 in use, 72503 most used
In this case there is no the log message where the "in use" field and "most used" field are 0 (zero). why does the context send the message with the "in use" field and "most used" field 0 (zero).

I have attached a drawing of our network. We have two 6509's connected to two Cisco 2811 (onsite) that the ISP owns. I am trying to get one side up and running before I worry about redundancy and so forth. For this reason I have set all the HSRP priorities to 110 on the left 6509. I have HSRP running between the ISP routers and V LAN 101 of the 6509's. This works as I can ping yahoo and Google just fine from the 6509 switch. I can't get from my laptop connected to V LAN 23 to the internet.
It doesn't even attempt to NAT as there are no translations. I have public address assigned by my ISP configured between the ISP routers and my 6509 on V LAN 101. I then have the public address assigned to V LAN 100. I configured V LAN 100 on the switch and V LAN 100 on the FWSM with the IP address in the drawing. I have my NAT statements and route in my FWSM according to the drawing as well. On the switch, I have a default route to X.X.12.19 which is the VIP between the ISP routers. I can reach anything on the inside of my network, including the old network addresses from V LAN 23.
1. Is it best to do NAT at the FWSM or should I do it on the MSFC connected to the ISP routers?
2. If I have to configure NAT at the FWSM, does this requires me to extend the public network down to the FWSM?
3. I'll take any examples you may have as I am stuck.

We run a 6500 with an FWSM with multiple security contexts as well as cascading contexts with a "shared V LAN" . There is a problem with regards to Linux machines and our shared network.
For example, we have three Linux machines in production, each in three separate V LAN's. For me to communicate to these boxes from one V LAN to another I must first ping the server. If I do not ping the server it will not bring up a connection like ssh or HTTP, etc. Below is the error I get from the FWSM that hosts the Linux server, but like I said once I ping the server the error goes away. We only have this problem with Linux machines, and it is a problem for all three of them. Is the FWSM having issues understanding something with all three Linux boxes? Below is the error I get at first, when I try to SSH from one V LAN to another V LAN with the Linux machine.

Deny TCP (no connection) from 10.255.12.109/22 to 10.255.1.30/63000 flags SYN ACK on interface inside.
Below is what happens when I initiate a ping to the Linux Server and then ssh again. Notice it builds the connection with no problem after the ping. During the ping it builds the dynamic translation, and then when I ssh it builds the TCP connection. Do you know why this could be?

I have an FWSM running in multiple context mode running 3.2(18) code. I have 3 urls that I would like to block so I can't justify the cost of an external URL filtering server. I have found a way to filter individual URLs on the ASA but the same configuration does not seem to be available on the FWSM. At least not on my code. Any way to do this other than resolving the hostnames and blocking the current IP addresses?

I have 7604 router with FWSM module in module 3.First of all the FWSM CF has been damaged, not physically. I bought the new same compact flash (size, partnumber, etc.). Downloaded the software 3.2 for FWSM, and ASDM from Cisco website. I realized that the procedure of creating new CF for FWSM is quite diffucult: creating 1-5 partitions, where 1 - is MP, and 4th - application partition. According to cisco documentation - the default boot partition is the 4th, so I partitioned from 7604 the CF into 4 partitions (partition disk1: <1-4> maximum) and copied the software and ASDM to the 4th partition (disk1:3:). Removed the CF from the router and put it into the FWSM module.

There is a 6500 switch with fwsm. We have extended 2 vlans from the ISP into the FWSM. Also there are atleast 10 other vlans for our internal network. We would like say half of the internal vlans to go out of the 1st ISP vlan and the remaining half from the 2nd ISP vlan. Is there a way we can do this in the FWSM?

I am having issues trying to track down what is causing a high number of connection on our FWSM in our core 6509 switch. I recently upgraded my FWSM to 3.1(20) and I'm looking for a tool to be able to find the culprit. When I receive these messages I try to get onto the firewall in time to be able to get information regarding this issue but by the time I do the device recovers. Is there a way to tweat the threshold of the SNMP trap for high connections? Is there any way I can retreive this information via SNMP? Is there are command that will allow me to extract the local IP making the most connections?

Firstly is this the right forum to post threads about FWSM's. We have 2 FWSM's in two seperate 6500 switches. There are a number of contexts on each FWSM.I want to fail a context from one FWSM over to the other 6500 and FWSM. Can you tell me how I can do that? Do I need to do it in the admin context and do I need to do it on the admin context of each 6500?

I have few questions on FWSM software upgrade.
1) I could not find the availale maintenance software under software donwload section?
2) what is the maintenance software version required for fwsm 4.1.8 upgrade (this does not have on the release note) url...
3) what is the main difference when you upgrad fwsm using following two methods:
- Installing to the current application partition from the FWSM CLI
- Installing to any application partition from the maintenance partition
4) how can we verify the file integrity after copied from tftp/ftp server (because it does not support verify command as in IOS)
5) how can we see the copied files in the fwsm (it does not show with show flash or dir commands)

On my RV042 (I used it for a couple of years now without issues), the DIAG led light amber (steady). It's not documented in the user manual.User manual says only:,Diag (Red) The Diag LED lights up when the Router is not ready for use. It turns off when the Router is ready for use.",Router does not work anymore and I can't access its web page as I used to do before this problem.I did a reset to factory default (reset button hold for more than 30 sec.) but it didn't change anything.
