Solved: ASA failover

malikashraf · ‎01-13-2020

we have ASA pair running as active passive code 9.8.3. whenever we do a failover from active pair to standby the asa reload. it was working fine but started doing this suddenly. no network configuration changes nothing.

the configuration are below

ASA-Active

failover lan unit primary

failover lan interface FAILOVER gig0/7

failover link FAILOVER gig0/7

failover interface ip FAILOVER 172.16.1.1 255.255.255.0 standby 172.16.1.2

failover mac address GigabitEthernet0/0 a000.a000.a000 b000.b000.b000

hm.. your configuration looks fine. so when you on primary active firewall and do a failover to a secondary passive firewall than the standby firewall reboot or reload. that what you saying? as i said your configuration look good. consider doing the upgrade the firewall?

please do not forget to rate.
