Do I have to use a switch between them to configure failover. I know in earlier days it was a must to have a switch between the pix's to configure failover. How about with the ASA's Do I need to have a switch between them to configure failover.</P><P></P><P>Tks</P> Fri, 21 Feb 2020 11:48:39 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/asa-failover/m-p/1265405#M417607 kuldeep.kaur 2020-02-21T11:48:39Z Re: ASA Failover https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/asa-failover/m-p/1265406#M417609 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>It is highly suggested you use a pair of switches for failover between the ASAs.</P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 25 Nov 2009 14:28:13 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/asa-failover/m-p/1265406#M417609 Collin Clark 2009-11-25T14:28:13Z Re: ASA Failover https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/asa-failover/m-p/1265407#M417610 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>As Collin saifd you probably want to use a switch.</P><P></P><P>You don't want a situation where one failover interface on one of the ASAs fails and both think that theirs failed because they saw their interface went down.</P><P></P><P>With the siwtch going down that situation would happen only if both the switch interfaces went down (not likely).</P><P></P><P>I hope it helps.</P><P></P><P>PK</P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 26 Nov 2009 00:04:08 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/asa-failover/m-p/1265407#M417610 Panos Kampanakis 2009-11-26T00:04:08Z
