Any way to put a second vpn site-to-site as standby and if the primary come down this standby come to up.for exemplo, I have a ASA 5505 in my branch office I wish add two VPN site-to-site to my head office. one tunnel must be standby and other active. there is any way to reach this? the contingency can be by hand it's not necessary be automatic.
View 4 Repliesi 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!.
I have two 5505 ASA. I would like to know can I make two 5505 failover redundant with active standby setup?
View 11 Replies View RelatedI have two ASA 5505's with Security Plus licenses on both.I am trying to force them to becoming an HA pair using active/standby.When I enable failover I get this message:
Mate's license (Licensed Cores ) is not compatible with my license (Licensed Cores ). Failover will be disabled.Do I need to apply new licenses to the ASA's?
Device licence details (same on both):Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance Software Version 8.2(1) [code] This platform has an ASA 5505 Security Plus license.
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.

We are preparing to upgrade from LMS 3.2 where we run 2 seperate independant instances in seperate locations for redundancy. Each instance forwards syslog traps to a seperate Openview system in the associated location. Device updates are manually done on each system.
To reduce costs and administrative overhead we are considering switching to an active-standby environment when we upgrade to LMS 4.2 where the active system would forward traps to both Openview systems.
Any experience with an active-standby Ciscoworks LMS 4.2 environment, specifically; When one system becomes unavailable (due to network, system or application issues) is promoting the standby system to active automatic?How long does it take?
Does the standby system still monitor syslog events and initiate automated actions? Where the active system stops working or hangs and the standby system does not go active?
Are there any reliability issues with database updates or synchronization from the active system to the standby system? Is there a way to test communications from the standby system for new device turn-ups without making it active?
When I wake up my pc after standby there is for ~ 5 sec on internet. Looks like it needs to reconnect to the internet.My old pc didn't have this issue and immediately had internet.I have a MSI Z77 GD-65 mobo and internet through an Ethernet cable.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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 have 2 x 5510's in active/standby mode, things look fine until the active one needs to be failed over and I realize the standby one is dead. I never notice as the lights on the ASA look good, I only nice as I can't telnet or console onto it, how can I debug this issue?

I've got an ASA which has a number of contexts. They all share the same external interface, and in the interest of saving addresses I'm wondering if the standby address for each context is really necessary. I know that in active/passive the standby address is what allows the two to communicate and monitor that particular interface, however, in active/active I don't see the point as the context is either going to be on one or the other.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm not quite ready for the Automatic Failover feature that the ASA 5520 support. For now we have a cold stand by unit. I was wondering if I can change the mac addresses of the standby unit's interfaces to be exactly the same as the primary unit. I see an active/standby mac address section in ADSM, but I think that is used in the automatic failover function.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI 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.

View 2 Replies View Relatedi 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?

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.

I have 2 Cat 6509-E switches in VSS configuration with 2 ACE modules. One in each Cat6k.
The ACE modules are running the following:
Software
loader: Version 12.2[120]
system: Version A2(3.2a) [build 3.0(0)A2(3.2a)]
We have only 2 contexts, the Admin and another one that we redirect traffic to WAAS equipment. The ANM soft running is only used for stats about the ACEs. It is version 5.2.
Since last week, the standby ACE module reboots on it own. It rebooted between 10 and 15 times until we had to leave the module PwrDown due to the constant reboots.
I tried to find any bug in the soft but I could not find anything related to that.
