When moving to ASA 8.3 I wanted to learn the new NAT features. However, I have encountered an annoying problem.
After a reboot, inbound traffic is blocked. I have to disable-apply-enable-apply all the ACL firewall ACL entries rules - all together - for allowing inbound initiated traffic to flow. There is no problem with traffic initiated from inside.
I have reduced the config to a minimum. With only one access list entry there is no problem. When I add another (e.g. the line tagged with (*****) the problem appears again after a reboot.
I work 99.9% from ASDM.
Object NAT and 'twice' NAT make no difference.
(FUI: Not included in the config but I encounter a similar problem with aaa authentication. That too is fixed by the above disable-apply-enable-apply procedure.)
Any ideas? TIA.
Best regards
