I have 2 PIX 525, which one of them, step and active failover mode the other PIX 525, leaving this off, do not know what happened may have been a power outage, but in any case I can turn it back on? And the other question I have is if I can import a configuration that I have saved on my computer. i have the PIX device manager.

I see here the standby ASA IPS module is down, but can that issue cause not sync the config backup and writing to nvram (save config)..?
I have 2 ASA 5540s ver 8.3 in Active/Standby state.I am considering a future hypothetical situation where I might need to rename interfaces or reallocate redundant interface groups. Doing so obviously has a major impact on the current primary configuration. My goal would be to minimize or eliminate network downtime during the interface changes.
I am wondering if it is possible to force the secondary ASA from the standby to active state.Then temporarily disable failover on the primary unit.Make the interface changes on the primary unit Then reactivate failover on the primary unit Force the primary unit back to active and secondary unit to standby My new interface configuration would then sync from the primary to the secondary.
I believe this would work but must ensure that the secondary ASA can function as the active unit while the failover is disabled on the primary unit. Is there a set length of time the secondary unit can remain active without a failover peer?
see issues with operating the secondary unit in this manner while making changes to the primary unit?
We have 2 ASA 5510's setup in an active, standby failover configuration. When the primary fails over to standby, the 3rd party cert does not failover to the standby ASA. The users then receive the CERT missing, invalid message and have to select yes, no to move on. This does not occur when the primary is not in failover mode. It is my understanding that failover fails over certs but in our case it does not apper to be working correctly.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to establish EIGRP neighborships with my inside switches (3750s) over the "Internal" interface, shown in green. The outside interface is g0/0 and don't worry, I've ensured EIGRP is not running there.The problem I'm having is that I need to monitor the "Internal" link so that if it goes down, the ASA triggers the failover to the secondary firewall connected to the other switch. I was told that the "secondary" keyword was what enabled this:
interface GigabitEthernet0/1
nameif Inside
security-level 100
ip address 10.10.2.2 255.255.255.0 standby 10.10.2.3
This is fine since I am able to compare this config to the firewalls that are currently in production elsewhere in the environment and this is what's in use there. However, in order to run EIGRP all the way to the firewall and not rely on something else like HSRP for the inbound traffic, I'd like to run the corresponding links (Gi1/0/22) on the inside switches as routed ports (no switchport) so that I don't have to establish neighborships with SVIs or something like that. I want the routing to be done directly to the port, leaving the interfaces for failover and our DMZ set up as switchports, since those can be layer 2.It's saying the Internal interface has failed now, probably because it cannot send hellos through this, since it's a routed port on the switch side. I'm wondering if this simply is an impossible design, unless there's a way to track this interface and trigger a failover if it goes down using another method.a method that allows me to track that internal interface (Gi0/1) and trigger a failover if it goes down.
I had a working active/passive pair of ASA5510's, and then I had to do a rush firmware upgrade, but didn't have time to do it on the secondary at the same time. Now I have made config changes and upgraded the secondary firmware to be the same, and wish to know if I plug it back in if it will think the secondary has the "correct" config or if it will know that the primary is newer. I disconnected the failover cable because it was complaining about version mismatches constantly.
Is it safe to add the secondary back in or is it possible it will be declared newer and overwrite the config?

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?

I have a ASA 5505 which is connected to a remote site which also has a ASA 5505 over a L2L VPN tunel. One of the sites has a WAN failover configured with two ISP which is working successfully.
But, when the WAN connection fails over to the backup connection the VPN link breaks as the peer site IP address has changed and the VPN can not establish a connection.
Would it be possible to configure a VPN failover so that when the connection failovers so will the VPN tunnel?

So we currently have a T1 connection at our location. We were looking to add a high speed cable internet and add an ASA 5505 with Security plus license to do failover between the two. I have found a few examples on how this would work but curious about a couple things.

I've seen you can configure stateful failover between two routers running ip inspect classic firewall: url...Can the same be done yet for zone-firewall? I cannot find any documentation on it.
