    <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Hi:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Can you post the output of "show failover" on the primary PIX, as well as the relevant failover statements to the group so we can take a look at it.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I assume that you are using LAN-based failover. Here's a sample config of LAN-based failover from CCO document just for your reference:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;PRIMARY UNIT:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;interface ethernet0 100full&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;interface ethernet1 100full&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;interface ethernet2 100full&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;interface ethernet3 100full&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;nameif ethernet0 outside security0&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;nameif ethernet1 inside security100&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;nameif ethernet2 failover security10&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;nameif ethernet3 state security20&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;enable password xxxx&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;password xxxx&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;telnet 192.168.2.45 255.255.255.255&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;hostname pixfirewall&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;ip address outside 209.x.x.x.255.255.224&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;ip address inside 192.168.2.1 255.255.255.0&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;ip address failover 192.168.254.1 255.255.255.0&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;ip address state 192.168.253.1 255.255.255.252&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover ip address outside 209.165.201.2&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover ip address inside 192.168.2.2&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover ip address failover 192.168.254.2&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover ip address state 192.168.253.2&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover link state&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover lan unit primary&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover lan interface failover&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover lan key 12345678&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover lan enable&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;SECONDARY UNIT:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;interface ethernet2 100full&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;nameif ethernet2 failover security10&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;ip address failover 192.168.254.1 255.255.255.0&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover ip address failover 192.168.254.2&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover lan unit secondary&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover lan interface failover&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover lan key 12345678&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover lan enable&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt; &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;A few more questions:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;1. Are you hard-coding the failover MAC address by using "failover mac address" statement?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;2. Are all interfaces hard-coded to 100Full/1000Full?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Binh&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi All,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I see these logs from the PIX firewalls on 2 sites. It keeps happening quite frequently and then stops for  a while and then starts again. I know that there are no problems with the switch ports where the PIX is connected to, but could it be hardware related to the PIX itself.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Oct 26 03:01:10 10.20.2.7 Oct 25 2004 22:43:31: %PIX-1-104004: (Secondary) Switching to OK. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Oct 26 03:01:10 10.20.2.7 Oct 25 2004 22:43:31: %PIX-1-105003: (Secondary) Monitoring on interface 2 waiting &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Oct 26 03:01:10 10.20.2.7 Oct 25 2004 22:43:31: %PIX-1-105003: (Secondary) Monitoring on interface 1 waiting &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Oct 26 03:01:25 10.20.2.7 Oct 25 2004 22:43:46: %PIX-1-104004: (Secondary) Switching to OK. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Oct 26 03:01:40 10.20.2.7 Oct 25 2004 22:44:01: %PIX-1-105004: (Secondary) Monitoring on interface 2 normal &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Oct 26 03:01:40 10.20.2.7 Oct 25 2004 22:44:01: %PIX-1-105004: (Secondary) Monitoring on interface 1 normal &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Oct 26 03:16:46 10.20.2.6 Oct 26 2004 12:00:36: %PIX-1-103003: (Primary) Other firewall network interface 0 failed. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Oct 26 03:16:55 10.20.2.7 Oct 25 2004 22:59:16: %PIX-1-104004: (Secondary) Switching to OK. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Oct 26 03:16:55 10.20.2.7 Oct 25 2004 22:59:16: %PIX-1-105003: (Secondary) Monitoring on interface 2 waiting &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Oct 26 03:16:55 10.20.2.7 Oct 25 2004 22:59:16: %PIX-1-105003: (Secondary) Monitoring on interface 1 waiting &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Oct 26 03:17:10 10.20.2.7 Oct 25 2004 22:59:31: %PIX-1-104004: (Secondary) Switching to OK. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Oct 26 03:17:25 10.20.2.7 Oct 25 2004 22:59:46: %PIX-1-105004: (Secondary) Monitoring on interface 2 normal &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Oct 26 03:17:25 10.20.2.7 Oct 25 2004 22:59:46: %PIX-1-105004: (Secondary) Monitoring on interface 1 normal &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Oct 26 03:17:39 10.20.2.6 Oct 26 2004 12:01:29: %PIX-1-103003: (Primary) Other firewall network interface 0 failed. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Oct 26 03:17:40 10.20.2.7 Oct 25 2004 23:00:01: %PIX-1-104004: (Secondary) Switching to OK. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Oct 26 03:17:40 10.20.2.7 Oct 25 2004 23:00:01: %PIX-1-105003: (Secondary) Monitoring on interface 2 waiting &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Any help would be appreciated.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;I doubt this is a hardware related issue.  My guess is that the interface 0, 1, and 2 are overloaded which is causing the hello packets between the 2 PIX's to fail.  Any chance you can provide a 'sh int' from the active PIX in this failover pair?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Scott&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;I have the same problem with a pix pair. 515's with 6.2. I even had cisco exchange equipment after changeing all cards, switchs and cables. I have been fighting this problem for over 6 months. Does not seem to affect users but I get paged when it happens. Utilization is not the issue. We use netview and the graphs look normal plus when it happens everyone is out of the office.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;My problems seems to be with the outside interface..just like the original post, the interface is stuck in waiting.  They don't affect users cause mine keep state but i need to fix this.  When it flops to the secondary everthing works fine..&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Anyone ever expierence this..Please help.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;code level 6.3.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Anyone have an answer this yet or some suggestions.  The PIXS use the same mac-addresses, when it flip-flops it causes some problems.  The switches get confused with the mac-addresses.  I also get mac-address flipping between switches error on the two switches the firewalls are on.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I have one interface on the secondary that is always in waiting.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Hi:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Can you post the output of "show failover" on the primary PIX, as well as the relevant failover statements to the group so we can take a look at it.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I assume that you are using LAN-based failover. Here's a sample config of LAN-based failover from CCO document just for your reference:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;PRIMARY UNIT:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;interface ethernet0 100full&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;interface ethernet1 100full&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;interface ethernet2 100full&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;interface ethernet3 100full&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;nameif ethernet0 outside security0&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;nameif ethernet1 inside security100&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;nameif ethernet2 failover security10&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;nameif ethernet3 state security20&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;enable password xxxx&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;password xxxx&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;telnet 192.168.2.45 255.255.255.255&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;hostname pixfirewall&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;ip address outside 209.x.x.x.255.255.224&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;ip address inside 192.168.2.1 255.255.255.0&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;ip address failover 192.168.254.1 255.255.255.0&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;ip address state 192.168.253.1 255.255.255.252&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover ip address outside 209.165.201.2&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover ip address inside 192.168.2.2&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover ip address failover 192.168.254.2&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover ip address state 192.168.253.2&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover link state&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover lan unit primary&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover lan interface failover&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover lan key 12345678&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover lan enable&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;SECONDARY UNIT:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;interface ethernet2 100full&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;nameif ethernet2 failover security10&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;ip address failover 192.168.254.1 255.255.255.0&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover ip address failover 192.168.254.2&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover lan unit secondary&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover lan interface failover&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover lan key 12345678&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover lan enable&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;failover&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt; &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;A few more questions:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;1. Are you hard-coding the failover MAC address by using "failover mac address" statement?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;2. Are all interfaces hard-coded to 100Full/1000Full?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Binh&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;no, I am not using lan based failover just the cable with a state.  Duplex is clean, i will provide the sh int and sh fail.  The outside interface seems to have the problem.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;when it does failover it work fine, but it flip-flops&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;the collisions you see are old..I fixed the duplex problem already, i have supplied the switch interface counters also and a sh log for the secondary.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;here is the primary conf.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Failover On&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Cable status: Normal&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Reconnect timeout 0:00:00&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Poll frequency 15 seconds&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Last Failover at: 08:24:12 EST Fri Nov 5 2004&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;        This host: Primary - Active&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;                Active time: 1196865 (sec)&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;                Interface outside (): Normal&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;                Interface inside (10.1.1.4): Normal&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;                Interface PDMZ (192.168.100.1): Normal&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;                Interface WIRELESS (192.168.2.1): Normal&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;                Interface stateful (172.17.17.1): Normal&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;                Interface ISOLATED (192.168.102.1): Normal&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;        Other host: Secondary - Standby&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;                Active time: 0 (sec)&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;                Interface outside (): Normal (Waiting)&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;                Interface inside (10.1.1.3): Normal&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;                Interface PDMZ (192.168.100.2): Normal&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;                Interface WIRELESS (192.168.2.2): Normal&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;                Interface stateful (172.17.17.2): Normal&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;                Interface ISOLATED (192.168.102.2): Normal&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Stateful Failover Logical Update Statistics&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;        Link : stateful&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;        Stateful Obj    xmit       xerr       rcv        rerr&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;        General         22124378   1          5750602    0&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;        sys cmd         202988     0          202978     0&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;        up time         10         0          0          0&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;        xlate           2157484    0          564464     0&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;        tcp conn        19763910   0          4983160    3&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;        udp conn        0          0          0          0&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;        ARP tbl         0          0          0          0&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;        RIP Tbl         0          0          0          0&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;        Logical Update Queue Information&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;                        Cur     Max     Total&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;        Recv Q:         0       10      1829642&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;        Xmit Q:         1       1       6157180&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;___________________________________________________&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;sh int &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;___________________________________________________&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;interface ethernet0 "outside" is up, line protocol is up&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;  Hardware is i82559 ethernet, address is 00b4.0080.d29c&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;  IP address subnet mask 255.255.255.128&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;  MTU 1500 bytes, BW 100000 Kbit full duplex&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;        354412584 packets input, 2721098732 bytes, 0 no buffer&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;        Received 525278 broadcasts, 0 runts, 0 giants&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;        1 input errors, 0 CRC, 0 frame, 1 overrun, 0 ignored, 0 abort&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;        394810630 packets output, 3316815700 bytes, 0 underruns&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;        0 output errors, 1277018 collisions, 0 interface resets&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;        0 babbles, 826467 late collisions, 1370038 deferred&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;        166 lost carrier, 0 no carrier&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;        input queue (curr/max blocks): hardware (128/128) software (0/128)&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;        output queue (curr/max blocks): hardware (0/100) software (0/1)&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;_____________________________________________________&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
