Cisco Firewall :: Upload New Image To Standby ASA5520?
Nov 30, 2011
I have a pair of asa5520's in active/standby configuration. I plan on ugrading the asa/asdm images to 8.4 shortly (currently on 8.0) and would like to do this with zero downtime. Specifically, I would like to upload the new software to the standby unit, upgrade it, swap standby/active units and then upgrade what will become the standby after the swap.The problem I'm having is getting the new images uploaded onto the standby unit. I've read that the routing table is not shared from the primary and the USB ports are "for future use". I have no problem uploading the new images to the active unit via tftp...but can't do the same to the standby.

I'm running a couple of 5520 (with failover configuration) and fw 8.3.1. Everything worked fine until I try to upgrade firewall to new fw version: 8.4.1. [code]
When I try to upload new firrmware or asdm image, ASA, the appliance reboots during tftp session. I've already tried to upload new images on both appliance, or use CLI either ASDM, but the result is always the same: ASA reboots.
From my point of view, the problem isn't the image but could be the firmware I'm running, becouse using fw. 8.0.1 I was able to upalod asdm 8.3.1, but using fw 8.3.1 I can't upload the same image.

I upgraded my ASA 5520 with the latest image. Now I get an error upon launching ASDM.Your ASA image has a version number 7.2(4) which is not supported by ASDM 6.4(1), use Device Manager version 5.2(x)Continue Anyway?
What are the newest, recomended image versions of ASA and ASDM I should be using?I will also be using the SSM-20 module with this setup, so I would like to stay with a working version of ASDM.

Our customer has purchased 2 x L-ASA-AC-E-5520= Anyconnect Essentials VPN Licenses (750 Users)Ive installed both activated licenses as per the cisco guides, I didnt get any errors on the install. I did a reload on both, they are both back up and running as active/standby but when I do a sh ver the license still shows "ASA 5520 VPN Plus License"Am I being dumb and has this worked successfully or should it not now display Anyconnect when I do a sh ver?

we have an ASA5520 need upgrade new anyconnect client, but the new version is too big, so it's no enough space. I want to delete the ASDM image to free the more space. My question is when I delete the ASDM image,if I could manage the ASA from web browser?

last night I started upgrading our ASA5520 active/standby cluster. Because of lack of memory, I stopped the upgrade process and will continue when the memory modules have arrived... Currently I'm running 8.0(5) on both nodes (Version: Ours 8.0(5), Mate 8.0(5))Whenever I use the "write standby" command on the active ASA, the passive ASA seems to drop it links for a short while.

Our firewall expert has gone off on long term illness leave and I am trying to pick up the pieces :-(
We have an ASA 5520 (local office) talking to another ASA (remote office) via a VPN Tunnel.
My 1st problem is that I cannot ping from my inside network (local) to the outside interface of my remote ASA.
My 2nd is that I have debug enabled on my rules but am not logging anything.

How I can actively monitor the interfaces and overall status of 2 x ASA 5500s in an Active/Standby configuration?
I can setup monitoring of the interfaces on the Active member but I'm not sure how to manage the Standby member?

Is there a way to access the asa in a failover pair that is in standby mode from the primary asa? IE I am logged into the primary asa via command line and was hoping to access the other asa from here.

I would like to work with two ASA's 5550 in HA (Acitve-Standby) like perimetral firewalls and also work with another ASA 5540 but like a SSL VPN Remote Access to end users.Which will be the best topology to this scenary?. Perhaps i need to put the ASA 5540 SSL VPN together with the ASA's in HA directly in a port.

I'm having an issue where when I upgrade from 8.2(5) to 8.4(2) on an active/passive asa 5585 running in transparent mode I can no longer reach the standby ip. The BVI interface appears to be created properly, the device IP and standby IP are listed in the config under the BVI interface and my inside and outside interfaces are both joined to BVI1-group.

I have this 2x ASA5540 firewall and notice the it is configured with a standby ip. The firewall is run in Active/Passive mode.However, the standby ip of this firewall is not point to the secondary firewall and vice versa for the primary firewall. [code]
1) May i know how is this configuration valid in the first place? I have checked through the configuration. None of the configuration is related to this ip address.
2) Can we remove this standby ip address on both the firewall and correct to the correct primary and seconadary ip address in both firewall?
3) We tried to use this ip address but cannot be used ? Is it related to the configuration of the standby ip address.Do note that the ping to this ip address x.x.x.120 is unreachable.

I can no longer communicate with the standby IP address configured on the inside interface of a secondary ASA5510. Just a couple days ago I could snmp, http, ssh, and ping it.From the switch that is directly connected to the inside interface I'm getting unexpected results when viewing the the arp table. The switch is saying the IP address associated with the ASA's inside interface has mac address 0023.3353.bcc8 but the ASA is saying its inside interface mac address is 0023.33bb.8362?Furthermore when I issue the "sh mac address-table interface f5/46" command on the switch i see multiple macs on the interface that is connected to the inside interface of the ASA...

I have two asa 5520 firewalls. one at my primary data center connected to our production Internet feed, and one at my fail over data center connected to a backup internet feed. I was wondering if there was an easy way to keep the firewall rules in sync between the two firewalls. We have failover with our isp that will move our public facing address block from our primary site to our dr site in the event of a disaster so the ip addresses will not change if we were to have to fail over to the DR site. currently i just have to do any changes that i make on the fail over server but would like a way to at least simi-automat this if not fully automat this so that i can eliminate the possibility of human error of a change happening at primary but never getting don at DR.

Come across pix 525 with 7.2.4 , 256 MB RAM, experienceing high memory utilization ?.show memory was giving used memory = 97%.All I had done was, i did a reboot of the firewall since we were not able to take the control of the f/w.I wonder why only the standby f/w had this issue and not the primary does not have, just to rule out that it was not due to Traffic.I have searched in bugtool kits and support forums and did not find anything relevant except for a similar issue for ASA CSCsg43844.

i have 2 ASA 5505 running 8.3(1) and ASDM 6.3(1).
the first unit is currently working, and i now wish to configure the second unit as standby. im configuring through the ASDM GUI. Started the HA Wizard, choose Active/Standby configuration and enter the IP of the peer device. checks come back all ok. On the LAN link configuration page (step 3of6) Interface is pre selected as VLAN99, I give it a logical name as iface_fail, and enter 10.0.0.1 as primary address and 10.0.0.2 as standby, subnet as 255.255.255.248, and select port Ethernet0/5
Note that if i click on the buttons next to the IP fields, i get IP addresses of remote hosts!.

Is there a document that explains how the configurations are updated to the standby ASA and what needs to be manually added tot he ASA? I have two ASA 5510 running ASA ver 8.3(2) and ASDM 6.4(1). When I add static routes to the primary ASA the routes are not sent to the failover ASA. Is this to be expected or do I have a bug?

I've tried to upgrade a redundant setup from 8.2(4)4 to 8.2(5)22 ending with a stanby ASA continuously crashing after config sync phase. On the first crash it even corrupted the flash, leaving me no choice than initializing the box from scratch.

i read that you need only one L-ASA5510-SEC-PL for setting up a Active/Standby Failover. I installed the license on the 1st ASA and tried to setup the failover via the ASDM wizard. It always fails, because the 2nd device can't have a 'base' license.So does this mean, i really need another license?

Here are the configs for failover:
PRIMARY
failover lan unit primary
failover lan interface failover GigabitEthernet0/3
failover interface ip failover 192.168.3.1 255.255.255.0 standby 192.168.3.2
failover link failover GigabitEthernet0/3
failover
SECONDARY
failover lan interface failover GigabitEthernet0/3
failover interface ip failover 192.168.3.1 255.255.255.0 standby 192.168.3.2
failover lan unit secondary
failover
In the above configs is it i m missing something for failover? when i shut the INSIDE interface of Secondary ASA I get the below output, It shows me secondary failed and primary Active, WHY it is showing me FAILED instead of STANDBY/READY. What i know about firewall failover is when active goes down the other becomes standby unit but in this scenario it is showing me FAILED,
FW0001(config)# sh failover
Failover On
Failover unit Secondary
[Code] ....

Is IPS should be in Fail-Open or Fail-Close mode ?
Is Mangement ip for both IPS module should be same or diffrent. ?

i have tried the password recovery on the standby unit but it does not work, do i need to remove the unit from the network to become a standalone unit to perform the recovery?
