Cisco Firewall :: Setting Up Failover Mode On To ASA 5510s
Feb 9, 2012I've been given the task of adding a second ASA 5510 to a live ASA and making sure that the active/standby failover works, do I need a crossover cable?

View 4 RepliesRecently, I unable to configure the failover on bridge group in transparent mode . I have five interfaces .out of this only 3 is showing in the show run config . Whether I can config failover on on of the data interfaces.
I have the ASA 5520 with the version ASA Version 7.2(4) <context>
I need to setup an ASA 5525 in Active/Standby failover mode. I am setting up the ASA for a company that purchased only one public IP address. The public IP address is assigned to the outside interface. My question is will failover work correctly if I don't use a secondary IP address on the failover configuration on the outside interface?

Computer A:
IP- 192.168.0.3
Mask- 255.255.252.0
Gateway- 192.168.0.2
[Code]....
Computer A can ping Firewall 1 and Firewall 2, but not Computer B. Computer B can ping Firewall 1 and Firewall 2, but not Computer A. Firewall 1 can ping Firewall 2, Computer A, and Computer B. Firewall 2 can ping Firewall 1, Computer A, and Computer B.
Why can't the computers ping each other, but their default gateways can? I've specifically allowed ICMP any any on all the affected interfaces.
We have several ASA5540s and 5510s (v8.4.1) being managed by CSM (4.1) Every so often several of the ASAs will send SNMP messages to CSM stating very high CPU utilization reached, usually between 150% and 400% - sometimes as high as 4million %.Obviously you can't get greater than 100%.

I have DSL service with AT&T and I have a Motorola 3360 modem. We also have a /28 network of static IPs from AT&T. When I login using PPPoE on the modem it gets x.x.x.190 as it's address. Our range is 177-190. I have two ASA 5510s in an active/passive failover configuration with the Ethernet port of the modem and one interface of each of the ASAs on a dumb layer 2 switch.
I want to setup this DSL connection as a backup to our main Internet connection. I cannot figure out what setting on the DSL modem to use to make this happen. I know I cannot use PPPoE in a failover setting so I can't have the modem in bridged mode. There is some mode where it passes the 190 address to the connected device and when I plug in a PC directly to the modem and set it for DHCP it does get 190 as it's address. So do I configure the ASA interface as 190 with one of the other addresses as it's standby? What do I set my route on the ASA to for use of this connection? Can I then make use of these other static addresses when plugging other devices into the layer 2 switch?
I currently have a set of firewalls in active standby configuration running an ospf process injecting a default route into the rest of my network.I noticed when i was testing the failover that the asa's do not actually pass the route tables on failover, thus forcing the need to wait for routes to converge and for the default route to be advertised back into the network. This of course is not acceptable.
Is there a way around this or do I have to setup static default routes on every device in my network. I am trying to avoid setting up default routes on all of the devices because due to the setup of my network I have equal cost links configured in the event of hardware or link failure. So the devices then see an advertised default route from multiple paths.
I was wondering how does failover works on Cisco Small Business RV016. Specifically, I am interested when one WAN line stop working, and all the computers in the LAN start using another line. Does it means that IP addresses of the computers in the LAN will change, or they stay the same? If they change can I set it up that they always stay the same no matter which input WAN they are using?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm a bit perplexed atm with trying to set up multiple failover routes on a 2821 router. Let me say that I have more experieince in a switched network as routing is seldom required where I work atm. Here's my problem. I have a routing table set up as follows but only the primary routes work. The failover routes will not kick in once the primary route is not there.
ip route 10.32.11.0 255.255.255.0 128.32.8.11
ip route 10.32.11.0 255.255.255.0 128.32.24.11 100
ip route 10.32.12.0 255.255.255.0 128.32.8.12
ip route 10.32.12.0 255.255.255.0 128.32.24.12 100
ip route 10.32.14.0 255.255.255.0 128.32.8.14
ip route 10.32.14.0 255.255.255.0 128.32.24.14 100
Ip addresses are not exact but it gets the point across.
Why the failover routes are not failing over? The failover routes work if I remove the primary route from the config.
I got an ASA 5510 system currently in single context mode, with CSC SSM installed. Single ISP uplink to internet, no VPN. And now customer would like add another ISP uplink, without invest another box for HA.What come across my mind is make the current box into multi context. There's some area i need to concern and also need yours perspective on it.
Question 1: For making the firewall into multi context, am i need to do it from scratch, issue mode multiple command. Then rebuilt the current production config into one of the context, then another context meant for the new IPS uplink, and one admin context?
Question 2: For CSC -SSM licensing requirement, model ASA 5510 with security plus license is able to support 2 context. So if i split my firewall like what i mention in question, what exactly number of context do i own (admin, context A, context B)?
Question 3: For CSC-SSM module in multi context mode, so the management port of CSC SSM must attach at admin context?
Question 4: After configured all the policy and traffic to scan, how exactly i should do in order apply this policy to the interface? Should i only enable at admin context, then firewall service-policy rules, and apply it global, OR should i also do the same action on context A and Context B?
Is there documentation on setting the RV042G to Router Mode and what that changes to it's topography? The manual simply tells us to click the button to change the mode?!?!? A 4th grader could figure that out - but what does it do to the unit? Does it basically become a glorified switch with an internet connection? Can the 2nd WAN port be used as a switch node?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have five (5) sites all connected via static VPN tunnels. They are all using Cisco ASA 5510s running 8.4(4)1. Any internal IP on each site can ping any IP on a remote site, because of the static VPN tunnels. I have the external IP (routeable) addresses connecting to each other.
Site A: 10.1.0.0 /24
Site B: 10.2.0.0 /24
Site C: 10.3.0.0 /24
Site D: 10.5.0.0 /24
Site E: 10.10.0.0 /20
I have remote users who connect using Cisco AnyConnect 3.1 to Site E. They get a static IP within the 10.10.100.0 /24 subnet (vpnpool00) and can access anything in the 10.10.0.0 /20 subnet. So far, so good.No management wants users to access devices within the other sites, specifically Site A using teh same AnyConnect connection. In other words, they get an Ip address of say, 10.10.100.5 and now need to access a server on Site A's subnet or 10.1.0.5.I have checked my NAT statements and they appear to allow this, but so far when I do a ping I get the following: Routing failed to locate next hop for ICMP from outside: 10.10.100.5/1 to inside: 10.1.0.5/0 What am I missing? Is there a NAT statement that is wrong, or an access-list statement or possibly a static route?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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?

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?
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?
There are 2x Cisco ASA 5505 in an active/standby failover config. The primary asa 5505 has been reset and the secondary is now running as active. I would like to reintroduce the primary again but need to know how to do this.
Ideally I would like to remove the failover config and start from scratch. Do I just need to enter the following to disable failover on the active secondary box?
no failover
no failover lan unit secondary
no failover lan interface failover Vlan999
no failover interface ip failover 192.168.254.1 255.255.255.252 standby 192.168.254.2

View 3 Replies View RelatedConfigured ASA 5510 ISP failover and working fine.My ASA as configured as DHCP server also. So its serves IP addressing details including mask,default-gateway, DNS server IPs.Here my issue is whenever my ISP failover occurs my ASA sends previous ISP DNS server IPs to my inside clients.
Here i like to configure my ASA to serve IP addresses dynamically.Or is there any global DNS IP addresses which will work for all ISPs?
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.
We would want the Cable to be the primary, T1 as a backup.Currently the IAD that handles our T1 does dhcp, dns, and NAT.. Who/what would handle these items with the setup above?
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.

I applied it, but since we'd only purchased one license, it broke failover. 8.4 lets you share tracking licenses, and since we were planning on the upgrade to 8.4.x anyway, I figured no big deal, I'll get that straightened out when I do the upgrade.
Did the upgrade this weekend, and I still can't get things happy, the boxes don't see one-another:
