I would like to configure redundant interfaces on my ASA 5510 and have a few questions on how this works. I have a Untangle internet filter between my ASA and clients currently in a Vmware environment. If I vmotion the Untangle filter to another esxi server that is connected to a redundant ASA interface will this standby interface start accepting traffic or must the primary interface go down?. The primary interface will still be up on the esxi host that I vmotioned from, but no traffic will be passing.The other question I have is related to creating the redundant interface. In order to create the redundant physical interfaces I need to remove the name of the interface and by doing this it will remove any configurations related to this named interface. Is there any way to preserve this or will I just be recreating the ACL's, etc?</P> Tue, 12 Mar 2019 04:15:34 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/asa-5510-and-redundant-interfaces/m-p/2482812#M238054 Phil Bradley 2019-03-12T04:15:34Z https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/asa-5510-and-redundant-interfaces/m-p/2482813#M238057 <P><EM><STRONG>If I vmotion the Untangle filter to another esxi server that is connected to a redundant ASA interface will this standby interface start accepting traffic or must the primary interface go down?</STRONG></EM></P><P>The primary interface must fail for the redundant interface to take over.</P><P><EM><STRONG>The other question I have is related to creating the redundant interface.
