ASA 5505 with THREE wan links, no load balancing

WStoffel1
Level 1
Level 1

So i've been confronted with an interesting problem.  As of right now it's a blank slate as I'm not sure how to do this.  There's a broadband Internet connection from the cable company that needs to be configured as the internet connection for the Lan, 192.168.0.0/23.  That traffic obviously needs to be natted through the Outside interface.  This would also be the default route.  So far a pretty plain vanilla setup is my point.

There's an Exchange server at 192.168.0.5 that needs to have email traffic sourced out of ISP2.  That outside interface is also the MX record for the mail server.  12.3.11.16/30 is the network, .17 being the default gateway.  .18 being my interface that needs to be natted to 192.168.0.5 allowing pop3, imap, https, smtp.

then there's an RDS (terminal server) at 192.168.0.6 that they want rdp or port 3389 to use ISP3.  This outside network is 12.5.14.56/29, 12.5.14.57 is the default gateway, .58 is my outside interface.   My terminal server clients would connect to 12.5.14.58.

Interfaces would look like this based on info so far:

interface Vlan1
nameif inside
security-level 100
ip address 192.168.0.254 255.255.254.0 
!
interface Vlan2
nameif outside
security-level 0
ip address 50.7.89.4 255.255.255.248
!
interface Vlan3
nameif ISP2
security-level 0
ip address 12.3.11.18 255.255.255.252
!
interface Vlan4
nameif ISP3
security-level 0
ip address 12.5.14.58 255.255.255.248 

 

which then becomes more of a design thing if it's technically possible...do i create a dmz and put isp2 an 3 there?

the current set up is a hodge podge of equipment with this meant to consolidate...when i say blank slate i mean it, anything can be done to get this working :)

it's the third wan link thats a hang up.  any ideas?

Hi,

If I understand it correctly you are trying to get the traffic working through 3 ISP network on the ASA device.

I think the Static NAT on the ISP interfaces for the Inbound connections should work just fine.

The issue here would be the Outbound traffic and how to direct that to the internet for the specific ISP interfaces.

Some workaround can be made for that using the NAT statement but we have to be specific on the ASA device version.

Thanks and Regards,

There's the version info.  Misread your reply initially, thank you.

 

 

Hi,

Unfortunately , on this ASA 8.2.5 code , you would only be able to route the traffic on the basis of the NAT statement on the basis of Destination service port.

Thanks and Regards,

Vibhor Amrodia

Meaning updated code *would* be able to correctly route traffic?  What version?  I can get it updated.

 

:)
