The ASA's always work on full duplex.</P><P></P><P>kindly change the settings for the ISP interface as well, it may cause you a momentary outage, since when you change it the two devices would start negotiating the duplex and speed, but it should not be more than 10 seconds.</P><P></P><P>If its the ASA interface needs to be full duplex, you can keep the speed settings as auto, which means the ASA would auto negotiate with the ISP device and you don't need to hardcode the settings.</P><P></P><P><A class="jive-link-external-small" href="http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/asa/asa82/command/reference/i3.html#wp1874313">http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/asa/asa82/command/reference/i3.html#wp1874313</A></P><P></P><P></P><P>Thanks, <BR />Varun Rao <BR />Security Team, <BR />Cisco TAC</P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 26 May 2012 00:02:13 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/asa-5505-dropping-internet-connection-randomly/m-p/1955093#M435791 varrao 2012-05-26T00:02:13Z ASA 5505 dropping internet connection randomly! https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/asa-5505-dropping-internet-connection-randomly/m-p/1955094#M435792 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Ok perfect, Thanks for the help! </P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 28 May 2012 03:32:52 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/asa-5505-dropping-internet-connection-randomly/m-p/1955094#M435792 Nick C. 2012-05-28T03:32:52Z
