I need to know if I can pull Netflow style data (Top Talkers, Top Sessions, etc) from ASA 5505s? We are looking at buying some but I need to be able to export this kind of data to my managment station which is also a collector. I have read on this forum that 8.2 and above should support Netflow but I have read conflicting information.
View 2 RepliesI am trying to configure the NetFlow Top Talkers function on an ASR1002 with ADVENTERPRISEK9-M, Version 15.2(4)S. With this new Hardware and Software I am surprised to see that the command:
ip flow-top-talkers
top 50
sort-by packets
cannot be found on the CLI - it's just not there.
I have an 887, I'm having trouble wrapping my head around the ZBF. I would like to change it to the old style firewall, but using the CCP it says I must delete the ZBF policys first - fair enough, I deleted all the rules so the firewall looks blank, but it still doesn't want to let me change the firewall mode - saying I must remove all the policies first.

Whilst troubleshooting another issue I noticed the below. I don't know much about fail over but this would suggest that the secondary ASA is active and the primary ASA is on standby.
if the primary is "active" then how come the secondary is the active ASA? I would have thought that once the primary ASA became active this would assume the "main" role".

I've configured N7K to export layer 2 flows. Using 2 different flow collectors (open source and commercial), gaps/drops in the reported traffic are observed on a periodic basis.Problem doesn't seems to be with the exporters, hence I wondering if netflow configuration on N7K can be tweaked to address this symptom. Using the 'show exporter' command, no errors/drops are observed. [code]

The SVI sends the flow data just fine, however I also continue to receive flow data from most other interfaces.
I have attached a screenshot of one of our netflow collectors indicating that many of the interfaces are sending flow data even though not configured to do so. We have two different netflow collectors, from different vendors and both confirm the same interfaces sending flow data.
Normally I wouldn't care and ignore it, however one of them uses a license limit by interface and is a bit problematic.
I've got an issue with SNMP and netflow tools. They are displaying different data for the same (sub)interfaces.I've got metroethernet link which connects root A (Cisco 7606, 12.2(18)SXF8) and root B (Cisco 2811, 12.3(11)TS). MPLS is configured on the link (behind root B there is no more MPLS). I'm attaching root configurations (I've ommited parts of config).Interfaces are:
Root A - gi2/6.2144
Root B - fa0/1
I've configured SNMP and netflow on both devices. I'm using two SNMP tools (CA Spectrum and eHealth) and two netflow tools (CA NetQoS Reporter Analyzer and Fluke Networks NetFlow Tracker) to collect the data. SNMP tools show the same info for defined (sub)interface.Netflow tools also show the same info for defined (sub)interface. I'm attaching reports from one SNMP tool and one netflow tool for the same time period.
1. Looking at SNMP tool, it can be seen quite amount of that data in both in and out direction.
2. Looking at netflow tool, it can be seen quite amount of that data in out direction, while in direction shows small amount of data.
I'm aware that Cisco has difficulties with SNMP counters on subinterfaces. I'm also aware that MPLS netflow has its own difficulties.Root B netflow configuration is quite simple as it has just 2 interfaces to configure netflow on (Fa0/0 and Fa0/1). So I would guess SNMP and netflow data should match, but they don't. When you look at SNMP tool reports for roots A and B, it can be seen that traffic volume is practically mirrored.
I have a TAC on this, but thought I would throw it out here too. We recently upgraded a 5520 to 8.4 code so HTTPS traffic can filter through the CSC. Well, it takes several attempts to pull up any https pages. Cisco thought it may be hardware, so I swapped out the CSC, but before I go through the hassle of moving licnese, I brought a second ASA with CSC, which prior to this was their main ASA running 8.2 code and did not have issues, of course HTTPS did not filter through it either. the exact same thing happened on this ASA. So apparently it is not hardware related. One other thing I found, if I bypass https, it still happens, and the only solution is to shut down the CSC module. Now I think it may be the ASA policy that while not the cause, but is being difficult. I found that if you pull SIP inspections out, and reapply them in testing voice issues, you must reboot the ASA for them to work again. I am wondering if this is the case with the HTTPS traffic not releasing from the CSC even with the ACL having it removed. I need to try that next.

View 2 Replies View RelatedThis is an issue I'm currently exploring with TAC, but I'd like a quick reality check. We have a pair of ASA 5510s in Active/Standby stateful failover mode. In some tests failing over from the active to the standby system breaks SSH connections from hosts on our Inside to hosts on our DMZs.
A specific example is our backup server on Inside which is connecting to our mail server in the DMZ2, and running ssh/rsync/scp for the backups. A running backup job fails with network timeout errors when I trigger the failover. Also, sometimes the mail server loses or hangs on its connection to our LDAP server in DMZ1, although sometimes this connection is fine (DMZ2 is more "inside" than DMZ1, and I assume the LDAP look ups are many short connections, vs the rsync backup being one long connection).
TAC has suggested that open SSH sesions will always fail when the ASAs failover. I believe this is true for management connections to the ASA, but I don't see why it should be the case for an SSH session through the ASA to a server in the DMZ. TAC has suggested that I open some connections to servers in the DMZ and test what happens, and I can do so this Wednesday morning during a maintenance window.But, in general, is this true? That is, given an SSH session from a workstation to a server, should a failover break it? If so, why?
The setup is:
MyWorkStation-INSIDE -> CoreSwitch (vlan 10) -> [ ASA-INSIDE - - (ASA-internal-connection) - - ASA-DMZ ] -> CoreSwitch (vlan 3) -> TargetServer
That is, all our inside VLANs are routed by our core L2/3 switch to a VLAN that connects to the Primary and Secondary ASA's INSIDE ports. There are also seperate VLANS on the core for the ASA's DMZ1 and DMZ2 connections, which go to both ASAs and to any servers in these zones.
The description of the ASA Stateful failover [URL]says: "The state information passed to the standby unit includes these:
· The NAT translation table
· The TCP connection states
· The UDP connection states
· The ARP table
· The Layer 2 bridge table (when it runs in the transparent firewall mode)
· The HTTP connection states (if HTTP replication is enabled)
· The ISAKMP and IPSec SA table
· The GTP PDP connection database
[code]....
I'm not quite sure what the ISAKMP and IPSec SA tables do, but shouldn't an SSH connection through the ASA be just a TCP connection? "For us, SSH from Inside to hosts in the DMZ survives failover," or, "Yah, failover breaks all SSH sessions."
in Cisco ASA 5540 Adaptive Security Appliance Platform Capabilities and Capacities, I see Concurrent Sessions: 400,000. Which mean what device can handle 400,000 session and no more. But if I'm using TCP State Bypass Feature (Inbound traffic pass via ASA but Outbound goes via different device). I can see such connections via show conn command with b flag.
My questions: 1. Will this limit (Concurrent Session) affect in this case? Or ASA can handle more such connections (for example 800,000 ...) in bypass state? 2. It's possible to tune timeout for such connection without using global timeout conn? My problem what I want to do by pass tcp connection for one IP with has very high connection/sec rate.
I wish see the top talkers 10 at the my router 2800 IOS 12.4 (13a)

% Top talkers not configured
I've set

maybe my router not support this issue ?? or it's missing some configuration.

I am currently testing Netflow accuracy on my Solarwinds platform. So I have been transferring a large file across an ASA 5520, which is set up to send Netflow data to out Solarwinds server.
The problem is that the Netflow data does not show up on Solarwinds for about 2.5 hours. Once it gets there the size is correct, but the time stamp on Solarwinds is 2.5 hours behind when the transfer happened. For routers it is showing up within a few minutes.
ASA is running 8.2(5) and Solarwinds NTA 3.9.0. Firewall and Solarwinds times / timezones are the same.
