I've been thinking about this for a while and I can't seem to find a comforting answer: Assume you have three datacenters connected over a WAN. Each datacenter has its own Internet and firewall, and each firewall has a trusted network, untrusted network (Internet), and DMZ: [code]
-DMZhostA has inbound access from the Internet over port X.
-DMZhostB has outbound access to DMZhostC over port Y.
-DMZhostC has outbound access to the trusted network over port Z.
If DMZhostA gets compromised from the Internet, the attacker can indirectly access the trusted network through DMZhostC, assuming the services running on the given ports are vulnerable/poorly secured.How do you track this web of access? This is a simple scenario with just three firewalls and datacenters, but it gets proportionally more complex and harder to track as the network gets larger. Manually tracking the traffic flow seems tedious, slow, and inefficient.
I am fairly new to configuring ASA's. I have an ASA 5505 with one outside interface and three inside interfaces (inside1, inside2, and management). I need inside1 and inside2 to be able to talk to eachother but cannot work out how to make this happen. They are both configured to the same security level and the 'Enable traffic between interfaces with same security level' box is ticked. I have also tried adding appropriate NAT and Access rules. The packet tracer suggests the rules are correct for allowing traffic flow between interfaces but obviosly this may not be the case.
I am in search of a new routers. I don't have any special task to do. Just the flow of maximum 2mb/sec data and some times video conference. However I need the Voip solution as well. I just got excited on the cisco ASA 5505 product. Can this fulfill my requirements. Can this work as the router 1841. Does this support DMVPN, SSL VPN and dynamic routing. Can I upgrade the IOS for dynamic routing purpose. Do you recommend to purchase this produe act or not instead of router ? What are the limitations of this product. If I purchase this I can use this as an router as well as strong security solution. How many ports are available for traffic flow in ASA 5505. Are all routed mode or some of them switch port.
I am looking for the way to define an idle timeout for specific flows on an ASA5580 by using Cisco security manager. For ex I needed to define a specific idle timeout for connections beetween specific devices (Devices in vlan1, Device2 in vlan2).To test it I did following changes by CLI and it works fine. access-list L1 extended permit ip <@IP1> <mask1> host <@IP2> class-map CM1 match access-list L1 policy-map PM1 class CM1 set connection timeout idle 02:00:00
I try do do the same configuration with CSM in order to be able to manage each changes only by using CSM.So I defined Access control list, Traffic flow and then I define timeout in CSM --> PIX/ASA/FWSM Platform --> Service Policy Rules --> IPS, QoS and Connections Rules -> connections settings -> Traffic flow idle time-out. The problem is that each time I deploy the configuration with CSM I loose the timeout config line which is the most important for my application..
My question is pretty straight forward but here is some background information. I would like my browsing traffic to funnel through my phone's 3G or WiFi connection. Is there any information out there on how to direct the browser to use the second internet connection? I was thinking about setting up a VPN using the second nic and somehow instruct the browser to use the specific proxy. I have no idea if that is even possible though.
The need for this is pretty simple. I do not want my browsing habits being logged by my company's network. Also while maintaining the current corporate connection so Outlook and RDP programs continue to function correctly.
I am trying to pass Traffic thru the IPSEC tunnel but it does not work ([Cisco Router 892] <---> [Cisco ASA 5510] <---> [Cisco Router 892]) The Cisco ASA 5510 doesn't pass traffic UDP=500 & UDP=4500 ports...
I have a 7204VXR Router, with Neflow. The collection for all interfaces is ok, but one interface (Gigabitethernet 1/0), is not showing the egress traffic in the pictures. The configuration has "ip route-cache flow", ip flow egress, and ip flow ingress set. But, is not showing the egress traffic.
We are facing one issue at the Customer site as Cisco 7600 series Router's having issue for reflection of traffic flow through netfluke as using by Customer to get bandwidth utilization report for our WAN links.Recently we have brought this 7606S router into production and moved some of our WAN links to this router and We are not getting proper bandwidth utilization report in netfluke after configuring netflow in this device.

I'm receiving multicast traffic (400Mbps) on port 9/38 and sending it out on port gi9/48. I'm trying to achieve that traffic will stay within the card without using the switchfabric,
We have been deploying Cisco SF200-24P switches for our systems for over a year now. They connect to a Cisco 881 router. In many cases we are also deploying Cisco AP541s.Over the last few months, on an intermittent basis, the switches will simply freeze, blocking all traffic flow. The power LED also goes dark. It appears the switch has frozen. The only thing that seems to revive the switch is a hard reboot by pulling the power cord. In the last couple of weeks, one site in particular has gone down a handful of times. That client of our is fed up. Our patience is running thin too.
I cannot see any indications in the logs to any event that might give a clue as to the problem. We definitely see this problem with the 1.2.7.76 firmware and the 1.2.9.44 (latest as of typing this). Not sure if with earlier 1.1.2 firmware.Without a fix, we likely will have to change switches and possibly vendors as we need a reliable switch.I see some vague references to a similar problem. And one reference to a SG300 series having what sounds like the same issue.
We have a pair of 6509 working in a VSS configuration (IOS 12.2(33)SX5). The 6509s connect to a pair of ASAs (7.2 code) running in an Active/Standby setup. These ASAs in turn connect to routers going to remote sites. I have configured Netflow on the following VLANS,
VLAN 10 - Servers Vlan VLAN 9 - Transit/ASA VLAN (connects ASAs to 6509s). All traffic originating from any VLAN on the 6509 crosses this VLAN in order to reach remote sites and vice versa
I configured the netflow source VLAN 11 although I am not collecing any netflow from it.Although I have been getting lots of Netflow info, I noticed that netflow for traffic originating from any user VLAN on the 6509s going to any remote site via TRANSIT/ASA VLAN(9) does not get reported, I even tested with 4 GB traffic but no result. Only reverse traffic (i.e. from remote site to user VLAN) is reported as it traverses the Transit VLAN (9).
I read somewhere that egress netflow is not supported in 6500, but isnt traffic originating from a user vlan to a remote site via the transit VLAN (9) considered ingress with respect to the transit VLAN (9)? I would like to know whether bidirectional Netflow is supported on 6500 VLANS. I have mimimum control on routers beyond the ASAs, and since these ASAs run 7.2 code netflow is not supported, and Monitoring this Transit Vlan gives me extremely useful info.
I do get netflow biderectional traffic from the Server Vlan 10, but I think it is correlated by the netflow collector from vlans 9 and 10. [code]
I've been digging into some performance issues on a LAN that has a couple of 2960s. The monitoring software I'm using has indicated a high amount of discarded outbound packets (up to 5%). The suggested resolutions were to enable flow control.
My question is does enabling flow control on all ports interrupt network traffic at all? this is a production network so I had already planned on doing it during off hours but also wanted to know if I should be prepared for any significant drop in traffic.
How to configure traffic flow between computers inside VLANs and a routed port? Here is the setup details:
1. Switch 3750-X 2. VLAN 100 - ( SVI IP address 192.168.100.1 /24) 3. VLAN 200 - ( SVI IP address 192.168.200.1 /24) 4. routed port gi1/0/48 (IP address 192.168.150.1 /24). Note: this port is directly connected to a firewall ASA 5520 port IP 192.168.150.100 /24
Ip routing is enabled on the switch and inter vlan traffic is flowing ok. I can ping the routed port gi1/0/48 from any computer connected in the VLAN 100 or 200. For example computer with IP 192.168.100.25 can ping the routed port 192.168.150.1. Switch can ping firewall port 192.168.150.100 and the 'sh ip route' command shows the network 192.168.150.0 /24 as directly connected network.
any computer in the two VLANs CANNOT ping firewall ASA port 192.168.150.100 Is it because inter VLAN routing does not work with a routed port on L3 switch? I looked up fallback bridging, but it is meant for non IP traffic.The goal is I am trying to set the ASA port as an internet gateway for VLANs.
I have three ASA5505, two firewalls connected to central VPN hub. the central inside network is 192.168.0.0/24,Network A is 192.168.1.0/24,Network B is 192.168.2.0/24,In one of this site (central), I have server with NetFlow collector.,I will collect the traffic information from all ASA at the my one serverCan I configure source IP address (or source interface - inside) for NetFlow packet, originate from ASA? (for example from site A)If it is not possible I think, I can rewrite my access lists and permit udp traffic from outside interface to server IP like this:access-list VPNACL permit udp host <Outside IP site A> host <Inside IP the Server> eq 9996,But I do not understand, what port I must be use in access list on Central site ASA. ,access-list VPNACL_A permit udp host <Inside IP the Server> host <Outside IP site A> eq 9996 ? or, in this place, must be source port in the udp netflow packet?
I am using ASA 5510 and I have a specific problem with Http Connection to receive a video Flow ( RSTP protocol ) in the LAN. Some Pc users (192.168.1.133,in the log) with ASA Lan Interface as gateway can ping the Camera but don't receveive the video flow.Some Pc users (192.168.1.116,in the log) using another gateway can ping and receive the video flow. I used Whireshark to capture traffic between camera and Pc using the 2 gateway. I joined Logs with this message.It seems to be a problem of TCP segments on the ASA, I try to changed some TCP options but it's still the same:- Disable Force Maximum Segment Size- Enable Force TCP Connection to Linger in TIME_WAIT State for at Least 15 Second.
I am attempting to allow traffic from one vlan to another.Vlan 1 is on Interface 0/2.vlan1Vlan 2 is on int 0/3.vlan2Each vlan can communicate inside it's own vlan, and the gateway on each responds to vlan specific clients My problem is that I am unable to communicate between the two vlans. Using the ASDM packet tracer tool, I find that packets are denied by the default rule (on the second Access List lookup). It appears as if the packet never reaches the other interface. The access rules are set up to allow traffic from one vlan to another (inbound), on both interfaces. Testing from either vlan to connect to the other fails. Below are the accee-rules for each vlans. Once I get basic connectivity working.

We have an ASA 5505 running version 8.4. We are having problems allowing external traffic to access computers behind the firewall. Our current config is:
I have an ASA pair configured to replace a router that hosts a collection of IPSec Tunnels. Tunnels appear to work. I am lab'ing some additional controls that I would like to implement. On the Production Router that i plan to replace with the ASA's the current Tunnels are all wide open (all traffic allowed to pass). I was hoping to lock things down a little without having to reconfigure all of the Tunnels. My though was that an ACL on the Inside Interface blocking selected traffic Out (so into the LAN) should not impact the stability of the Tunnels but allow me to restrict some traffic from entering the LAN. One port that I was attempting to block is RDP 3389. When this ACL is applied to the inside interface it does not block Port 3389 at all. What am I missing? Is it that the trffic is being allowed because it is coming through one of my 'open' Tunnels?
Shouldn't IPSec Tunnel traffic be processed by the Inside Interface ACL just like all other traffic?
We are looking to implement traffic shaping/policing primarily for P2P traffic. As natively the ASA5550 is only capable of p2p inspection if the traffic is tunneled via port 80 is the AIP-SSM the way forward? We have 2 5550s in active/active failover config. As a side note we are also looking to implement an IDS/IPS system so could this module cover all?Is this module going to provide the desired outcome or is there another module/device out there better suited for this? I would prefer to use the ASA5550s as opposed to implementing another product if only that we can make use of the investment we already made on these devices.
I am testing limit bandwith using my ASA 8.2, i am trying to limit internet access for certains users , i order to save Bandwith for the important things but i can´t get any limitation
My configuration is the following, the acces list is just for my pc in order to test, and the service policy is applied to outside interface (called internet in my case) for incoming traffic
access-list Internet_mpc_1 extended permit ip host 172.16.127.70 any class-map Internet-class-TEST match access-list Internet_mpc_1 policy-map Internet-policy-web class Internet-class-TEST police output 1024000 1500
service-policy Internet-policy-web interface Internet
With show service policy i can´t see any activity on the policy , but if i do a similar configuration for inside interface outgoing traffic i can see packets allowed and dropped
I have a SMTP relay deployed on the DMZ for mailing. I have also a mail servers installed in the internal lan,
I want to allow trafic from dmz to reach internal lan, and i want normally also allow stmp relay from dmz to reach Internet.
How can i block trafic from DMZ to reach Internal Lan (instead of smtp) if the to allow trafic from dmz to internet i must put ANY in the policy?
For allowing trafic from DMZ to reach Internet, the policy must be DMZ -----> ANY ----->Services., this policy means DMZ can implicity reach Internal Lan?
I was asked to enable netflow in an ASA Firewall for Orion/Solarwinds server monitoration. Firewall is a 5550, with 4G RAM, and no extra modules but SSM-4GE. This firewall has 5 DMZ segments and ans specific segment for internet traffic.There are segments as unique subinterfaces in physical interfaces. Other segments as individual subinterfaces in the same physical interface (but individual VLANs)Usually firewall CPU flows between 30% to 40%. Rarely to 50%.
1 - How dangerous or risky could be implement netflow in this firewall?...This firewall is very critical for the customer. My concern is regrading CPU, traffic generated, memory, etc
2 - In a month, firewall will be migrated from 8.2 software version to 8.4 software version. Is there any incompatibility in some commands?...Would be recommended to perform netflow configuration after software upgrade?
3 - How could it be implemented for Orion monitoring, regarding each individual sub-interface (and so, each VLAN assigned)?I there any recommendation regarding configuration, best practices?
We have 2 FWSM modules in each 6500 switches. 1st module is having 04 firewall vlan groups with 18 vlan interfaces in a single context firewall. All are working fine with no issues. Recently we create one more vlan on MFSC and add into the same firewall module. However newly created vlan inside the FW is not able to communicate with outside and also outside users not able to reach newly created subnet. But within the firewall zones (other interfaces) it can communicate. Once we did packet capture we noticed that its hitting firewall outside interface only and when we ping we got TTL expired error. we have default routes to outside and there's no any route inside as new segment is within the firewall (no any hop).
I guess there's no limitation on number of vlans that we can assign on one firewall eventhough there is a limitation for number of vlan-group which is 16 max (but we are within that limit).
Ive got a problem with passing traffic through a Cisco 515e firewall.im trying to telnet to devices on the inside net, 172.16.x.x fom an outside net 10.x.x.x? ive configured a group called infrastructure and added the 10.x.x.x addresses.ive configured acl 101 inbound on the outside interface:
access-list 101 permit tcp object-group INFRASTRUCTURE any eq telnet
when i try and connect, using a packet capture I can see traffic from 10.4.4.34 to the inside device 172.x.x.x on the inside interface but i cant see the traffic leave the outside interface ive used the same group infrastructure group before to connect to VM machines on the 172.x.x.x net on RDP and this wrks ok. access-list 101 permit tcp object-group INFRASTRUCTURE object-group VMs eq 3389
We want that inside host should get ip from subnet 192.168.10.0 /24. This ip pool is configured in DHCP server (ip 172.16.10.1) which is connected to ASA2. There is no routing issue as we are able to ping DHCP srever 172.16.10.1 from ASA1. to do config needed on ASA1 and ASA2 , so that host connected to ASA1 inside interface can get ip from DHCP srever. We have configured 192.168.10.1 /24 to ASA1 inside interface which will be gateway to inside host of ASA1.
Our Local Network is behind the CISCO ASA Firewall.Whenever we are accessing to Client VPN server,it is getting connected but after few Minutes (May be 5/10/30 Min),the sessions are terminating. The same traffic through PIX is no issue , only with ASA Firewall. See the following Error and request you give the possible root cause for this.

Recently we have configured few of our routers to export FNF (Flexible NetFlow), some of our router are exporting NetFlow V9 packets with fields as mentioned in the NetFlow V9 RFC. We noticed that one router is exporting NetFlow V9 with the field value different from RFC. I have attached the screen shot which shows that Field 194 is assigned for TOS. Whereas according RFC it is 5. Is there any specifc reason begind this or this is an IOS related issue.
