Unresponsive webvpn

jbeltrame — Tue, 26 Mar 2019 00:45:12 GMT

we are running an asa5510 with 8.2.3. We have a situation where the webvpn ( clientless ) was unreachable. At that time, ssh to the firewall was also unreachable, though traffic passing through the device was uneffected. Anyone ever see this? Is it a bug, or result of another condition? Traffic was low during this period, less then 10mb/s.

Thanks,

Jason

For how long was the ASA unresponsive?

Were you able to PING the ASA when the problem happened?

I don't think the ASA went down since all traffic was still flwoing through, but it depends on what else is configured on the ASA and how long the period was.

Correct. The ASA does not go down, just unresponsive. I can ping it, just not ssh to it or connect to it on https for webvpn. It just seems to hang. No sign of cpu issues. It was unresponsive to ssh and webvpn for less then 5 min.

Thanks,

Jason

fw01# sh blocks

SIZE MAX LOW CNT

0 400 178 400

4 200 199 199

80 700 672 699

256 2412 2387 2412

1550 3028 0 2769

2048 600 574 600

2560 900 900 900

8192 100 99 100

16384 102 102 102

I've check other firewalls, and this isn't the case anywhere else...

Thanks,
