Cisco Security :: ASA 5520 And Redundant Interfaces Design
Apr 17, 2011
We have two multilayer switches and only one ASA 5520. I'd like to connect ASA in the way described on the picture: each redundant interface includes two physical ones, which are connected to different switches
My question is what kind of link it is necessary to have between switches to make this idea work? I'd have subinterfaces like Re1.100, Re2.200 and so on for my traffic.
I understand that correct design approach is to have two redundant firewalls with failover but we cannot purchase the second one yet.

I have issue with traffic passing between same security level interfaces. I want to control traffic between same security level interfaces with ACL. Even no restriction, traffic does not go through. [code]
I tried to access server from THREE network to web server at FOUR network I have no response. In sh xlate output it shows "PAT Global 10.124.104.254 (28889) Local 10.124.103.1(2922) " I am not sure what else should I do. I add both same-security-level commands and it is the same.

We are small transit ISP for other downlinks. And currently have such setup 7201 and 7206NPE-G1, as core and edge routers also we have connected to IXP. Downlinks usually BGP connected to one of border router which is terminated via VLAN, thus sub interface. IXP are also connected via VLAN on router.
What I don't like about this is when one borderd goes down downlink will lose connectivty, also recently we start growing and getting more downlinks, so balancing between borders become problem. So my question is, how to make setup less fragile and more redudant.

In ASA 8.0,I have following queries related to redundant interfaces
a)While configuring redundant interface can the redundant interface again be divided into logical interface like red1.1 , red1.2 ?
b)Is Redundant interface supported in the Multiple context mode

My customer is running an ASA5505 with 8.3 code.
The have a somewhat flaky proxy between their inside LAN and the firewall. I'd like to have a configuration as follows:
LAN > Proxy > VLAN 1 (eth0/2) on ASA
and
LAN > VLAN 1 (eth0/3) on ASA
So that in the event of Proxy failure (let's just say it loses power) the eth0/3 interface will kick in.
This appears to be easily configured according to the documentation:
"The following example creates two redundant interfaces:
hostname(config)# interface redundant 1
hostname(config-if)# member-interface gigabitethernet 0/0
hostname(config-if)# member-interface gigabitethernet 0/1
hostname(config-if)# interface redundant 2
hostname(config-if)# member-interface gigabitethernet 0/2
hostname(config-if)# member-interface gigabitethernet 0/3"
But these commands don't seem to be available on a 5505.

just have few questions about designing WLC 5508. The scenario is that currently one of the client has a firewall Tie ring T1 internet facing and T2 internal which has multiple DMZ connected. T2 firewall has a DMZ switch connected which has a router which connects to MPLS cloud to different site across the country. (around 10 sites) all static routing. Now the client is thinking to deploy wireless at all 10 sites using H-REAP. The issue is that client has only one WLC and they are not willing to buy other as i was thinking to deploy two WLC one for corporate and one for guest users. (one in internal network and on in DMZ). Now my question is as follow.
1- Keeping in mind that there is only one WLC where should i physically put it?
2- How guest users will work ? How the authentication will be done?
3-There are 8 SFP ports in WLC how physical topology will look like?
4-How many V LANs i have to make for wireless users will that be 10? (1 at each site) ?
My last question is that how these ports work on WLC are they just like switch e.g one port can be assigned to different v lan....just confuse about interfaces and vlans on WLC (interfaces concept).

we have two ASA 5510 connected in failover, and a pair of cisco 2960s switch connected in stack. Currently one interface of primary ASA is terminated on switch1 and a interface from standby is connected to switch2 as Inside, and switch1 and switch2 are in stack. for redundancy purpose i want to use multiple interfaces of ASA for inside , so first i thought to use etherchannel , but it has a limitation that , it cannot be terminated on stack switch(as per cisco document [URL]
So my question is :
1. can we use redundant interface feature where 2 physical interfaces combined to a redundant interface (eg interface redundant 1) for inside redundancy purpose.
2. Can these ports from primary/standby ASA terminated on stack switches (2960s), will this work (if the switch with active port goes down, will the other port take over in the redundant interface with the other switch).

I would like to do the following architecture with the same C3750 : network X,Y,Z connected to 3750 in VRF D the 3750 uses a routed interface on subnet E for the default route in VRF D on this routed interface a BYPASS EQUIPMENT the other BYPASS EQUIPMENT interface is connected also to another routed interface on subnet E "also" this routed interface is in another VRF C with other network A and B.do you know if it will work because of 2 routed interfaces on the same IP subnet or is there a way to do that ? the only goal for me is to catch traffic from network X,Y,Z on SYN and ACK.

i need to design a site-to-site VPN and VPN for remote users. I have attach a drawing, need to know if this is good setup. Mostly my concern is security. Im using ASA5520 for edge firewall and Linux firewalls are for additional security.I have to create 5 site-to-site VPN using IPSEC and 5 remote VPN clients. Site-to-site VPN are for trusted Office and remote VPN clients are only for our staff use.
From the diagram ASA5520 is configured as followed
outside interface is set to security 0 and connected to boder router to internet, inside interface is set to security 100 which is connected to a linux firewall which then goes to our internal lan.DMZ interface is set to security 50 which is connected to DMZ segment ,I decided to use the 4th interface for all VPNs which is set to security 100, and for this 4th interface i have created two sub interfaces vlan 400 (for site-tosite VPN) and vlan 500 (for remote access VPN). I did this because i have to use two separate linux firewall box. Linux firewall box for Site to Site VPN is configured with NAT but Linux firewall box for remote access VPN users are configured without NAT. I also want to know do i need to create a CA server or can i use pre-shared key with XAuth for remote access VPN users?

Currently we are using a single connection to our ISP and in the coming months will be moving to a two seperate connections (to same ISP). In our current setup we utilize active/passive ASA's (5520, single context) and would like to utilize that going forward as well, the reason being is our DMZ's all hang off of these ASA's and we have fiber connectivity between our datacenters.Our main datacenter and DR Datacenter are basically one big LAN with fiber between them, so we have our DMZ networks at both locations currently with both terminating in our ASA's. That way if the ASA at our current site fails the DMZ's are still accessible via the secondary firewall at our DR facility.

I currently have an ASA 5520 in production without using subinterfaces. I have connected an interface on the ASA to a 4507, the 4507 contains SVIwhich perform the routing for our internal network. I have another ASA 5520 and I am playing around with a few new design scenarios. The problem I am currently having is with SubInterfaces on the inside of the network. I understand the subinterfaces on the outside network, I am using subinterfaces on the outside for dual homing ISPs.
I don't understand the multiple subinterfaces on the inside, for some reason I can't wrap my mind around using them. I have created a few and trunked a port from my 3560X to the ASA interface. Here is my design.
ASA 5520 Config(I realize that this isn't how it would look in CLI, I just don't remember all of the commands)
interface Gi 0/1
nameif Physical Interface
no ip address
interface Gi 0/1.10
nameif Prod_USERS
ip address 172.16.10.1 255.255.255.0
security-level 100
interface Gi 0/1.20
nameif Users
ip address 10.10.16.1 255.255.255.0
security-level 100
Alright so in this scenario I would have a trunk port from my 3560X connected to interface Gi 0/1 on the ASA. On the 3560X I would created the two VLANs (vlan 10 and vlan 20); I also created an SVI on the 3560X as follows.
3560X config
interface VLAN 10
description PROD_USERS
ip address 172.16.10.2 255.255.255.0
no shut
interface VLAN 20
description USER-NET
ip address 10.10.16.2 255.255.255.0
no shut
Now I create a default route on the 3560X as follows, "ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 172.16.10.1". By doing this, I can only route my 172.16.10.0 network out to the internet, not the 10.10.16.0 network? I have to remove the default route above and add ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.10.16.0 for clients on that network to browse out to the web.
So I am obviously missing something crucial here and I just can't wrap my head around this design scenerio for some reason. the topology necessary for this configuration to function correctly and how I can get both of my VLANs to function properly. I would like for the 3560X to route traffic internally until traffic needs to browse into the DMZ or out to the web, and at such time it should then use the firewall.

I have some doubts about the best solution for the design of a mini data center.In the data center there is a 6500 with FWSM module installed, there are some vlans created, all of them in the fwsm module. For example, a back end server to communicate with a server in the front end must always pass through the firewall. My question is, all these flows passing in the firewall does not degrade the speed of communication?What is the best practice, just pass the communications with the WAN in the firewall, and the vlan communication between front end and back end is only set up in 6500?

My company has chosen to allow our employees to bring in and use their own personal electronic devices such as i Pads, i Phones, tablet PC's, etc... We intend to allow them to access our network with these devices. My question is if an employee decides to enable a WiFi hotspot on an iPhone, i Pad or other device and then share out that network connection we have provided to them to allow other devices to tether to it, how do we prevent or mitigate this issue with our W LAN environment?
Our current environment consists of 4400 series WLC's and 1131, 1231 and 1242 series AP's using version 7.098.218 code. We plan on migrating to 5500 series WLC's and 3500 series AP's but this will not happen overnight.

We have an ASA 5520 which is in multiple context mode. We are trying to pass traffic from the outside interface to the dmz interface. We have a /27 public ip range. We need a small amount of those addresses to be in the DMZ for SIP servers specifically. The rest of the addresses are NAT'd to the inside interface.So i created the outside interface GigabitEthernet0/0 with 1.2.3.192/28 Inside Interface GigabitEthernet0/2 with 192.168.20.0/24 DMZ interface on GigabitEthernet0/2.1 with 1.2.3.208/29 So all i want to do is route traffic that comes in the outside interface and out to the DMZ interface for the 1.2.3.208/29 subnet. I set the gateway address as 1.2.3.214 which is the DMZ interface address on the ASA.

Our ASA 5520 firewall is running 8.0(4) IOS.I have an internal L2L VPN terminating on my firewall (from an internal remote site) on ENG interface.With the default "sysopt connection permit-vpn" command enabled, VPN traffic is allowed to bypass the ENG interface acl.The security level on the ENG interface is set at 50.The security level on the destination interface PRODUCTION is set at 40.Inbound VPN traffic bypasses ENG interface acl and since higher-to-lower security level allows VPN traffic to flow freely from ENG to PRODUCTION, it seems the only place to check/filter VPN traffic is an ACL placed on the PRODCTTION interface and set at INBOUND (outbound VPN traffic).

I have a Cisco ASA 5520 running 8.2.2 with the VPN Plus license. I am wondering what is the max number of sub-interfaces you can have on a physical interface. I know on the 5505 it was 20 sub-interfaces if you were running the Security Plus license. What is the magic number for the 5520. I have hit 20 sub-interfaces on gi0/1 interface and now I am starting to run into problems with sub-interface #21.

I have two virtual interfaces on my ASA 5520:
GigabitEthernet0/1.338 172.30.0.81/28
GigabitEthernet0/1.345 172.30.0.129/28
I have the security levels for both set to 50 and in the ASDM I have checked off "Enable traffic between two or more interfaces which are configured with same security levels"
But now the need has arisen that we allow each subnet to be routable to each other for SMTP traffic, how can I accomplish this?

We have been testing out IPv6 configurations on a 5520 running 8.2(4). We have assigned EUI-64 prefix addresses to sub-interfaces to allow clients to auto-configure there IPv6 IPs and it works correctly. I used ASDM to do the original configuration and noticed that there were two different ways to do it, both of which seem to work. I can add a prefix under the Interface IPv6 Addresses dialog box and check EUI64 or I can add it under the Interface IPv6 Prefixes. But using the two methods yields two different interface configurations:
1.
interface GigabitEthernet0/1.40
vlan 40
nameif test

We have a Cisco ASA 5520 and in order to conserve public IP addresses and configuration (possibly) can we use the same public IP address for a static NAT with two different interfaces? Here is an example of what I'm refering too where 10.10.10.10 would be the same public IP address.
-static (inside,Outside) 10.10.10.10 access-list inside_nat_static_1
-static (production,Outside) 10.10.10.10 access-list production_nat_static_1

One line of an ACL was changed on an ASA 5520 (primary) and a wr mem was issued to save the change. It appears that when the wr mem was executed, the interfaced on the standby ASA bounced. Configurations have been saved in the past without the result of what's in the log entry..

I've just started a CCNA course and my lack of knowledge has me a bit stuck. My network is comprised of Cisco components and I'm semi familiar with them just from reading and looking through options. I currently am using a Cisco ASA 5520 on my network and I am trying to join another network via one of the interfaces. My network is 192.168.0.0 255.255.0.0 and my inside interface is 192.168.1.1 255.255.0.0. I enabled a second interface using a static ip of 10.0.0.1 with a subnet of 255.255.255.128. Connected to that interface, I have a Fortigate firewall at 10.0.0.2 255.255.255.128. I can ping just fine from the Fortigate network to the 10.0.0.1 interface on the Cisco ASA 5520 network, but I can not ping the 10.0.0.1 interface (or anything past it) on the ASA 5520 from any computer on the Cisco network. I've read that ACL's and NAT have to be done as well as enabling traffic between interfaces with the same security levels. (both interfaces have security levels of 100 and the option is checked to allow traffic).
Note: each network has it's own internet connection. The connection is to share information on servers on both networks with each other.

We have to enable FIPS 140-2 on our ASA5520's for all our IPSEC VPN connections. We currently have failover on our 5520's. I found a lot of information out there but some seems to conflict one another.What are the things I need to look out for - caveats? Does the clients that connect to the VPN had to use different clients once the FIPS was enabled.Do we need to recreate logical interfaces for each physical interface we have?
