PIX 535 interface issue

tostrander — Fri, 21 Feb 2020 12:16:26 GMT

I have 2 535's in failover mode. Last week the primary outside interface went into a line down state. No changes were made to any configurations and this had been running for years. I have rebooted both PIX's and still get the same down state.

interface ethernet0 "outside" is up, line protocol is down

This connects into a 3500 series switch and the interface on the switch is in an UP/UP state.

Any Ideas?

Hello

I would check the following (In turn):

Change the port on the switch
Replace the cable
Check for duplex/speed issues
Check if that VLAN is active on the switch
Check if the MAC is being learnt on the switch port (Firewall MAC)
Clear the interface counters and look for anything peculiar there

Is this version 6.x or 7.x and later?

Please rate if you find the input helpul; Thanks
