ASA 5506 can't reach internet until I ping ISP router

[XenFikish]

Hi,

I have a basic config for testing purposes, and it's currently working on another ASA 5506, I just made a backup from that working ASA, restored it to the new one and I'm having the issue of the title of this post.
The thing is, when I connect the new ASA, I can't reach the internet from the inside network, but if I try to ping the ISP router on the outside(192.16.10.1), it always does the same; the first packet fails, then the other 3 work, and after that I can reach internet hosts. This is unstable as later that will happen again and hosts on the inside will lose internet connection.
I can't understand what's wrong...and if something is wrong how can it be that the other ASA is working properly...

Here is the config, as you can see it's for testing purposes:

Thank you for your time.

So... can anybody help me with this issue? I'm stuck with it, and it's probably some dumb thing that I'm unable to see :(

[Marvin Rhoads]

Does your upstream ISP router know to route to your ASA for 192.16.10.100?

Also, your access-list applied to the inside interface has overlapping entries and is generally unnecessary.

[XenFikish]

My ISP router has set the ASA's outside interface as DMZ to redirect all the traffic there, and it's currently working like that with an ASA 5505, the problem comes when I replace it with the new 5506 with the config displayed above.

Yeah I know, ignore the access list, as I said, that's a test config where I added things to have it opened and didn't bother to delete previous ones.

[Marvin Rhoads]

OK - other than those minor inconsistencies your config is pretty straightforward. I'd still get rid of your "access-group inside_access_in in interface inside" to help clean things up.

I'd start with a packet tracer test to make sure we aren't overlooking something. Try:

packet-tracer input inside tcp 172.168.1.100 1025 8.8.8.8 80

...and share the results.

If that looks OK (traffic is natted and sent out the outside interface) then go the next step with an actual packet capture. If you see the packets leaving the ASA properly with no return then it is something in the upstream (ISP router) configuration.

[XenFikish]

Ok, I'll test that after the weekend and share the results, thanks.

Hi

Got rid of my "access-group inside_access_in in interface inside" and changed the outside config from static ip to dhcp to see if that could help with the routing, after that tested the packet trace and here is the result:
(I still have the same problem, can't connect to internet, can't resolve a ping to "google.com" until I ping my ISP router and then everything starts working)

packet tracer show its taking the packet at right direction. your NAT rules are correct as shown in the packet trace logs. I noted you configured the DHCP server on ASA. when you plug your machine to inside interface.

show this command

!

show dhcpd binding

!

it will show you if the DHCP server is handing out the ip address from the pool configured from your server firewall. configuration look good.

I also noted you configured "dhcpd auto_config outside" that mean your outside interface will act as dhcp client. however you configured the outside address manually. unless you take this command off "dhcpd auto_config outside" and configured your outside interface as

!

interface GigabitEthernetX/X
nameif outside
security-level 0
ip address dhcp setroute
!
