ASA 5510 ip failover

[alucky8ball]

Is it possible to configure an ASA 5510 with two different ISP's such that if the main ISP goes down for any reason, it will automatically go to the second ISP? Both of the ISP's will come into the ASA 5510 via cat5, not serially, as 1 is a cable modem and the other is a dsl modem. Thanks, Jeremy Rich

Hi,

Check the following link for the PIX/ASA configuration details when connecting to 2 ISPs.

You would need to be on 7.2(1) code which has the track option. Track allows you to track the ISP connecting interface of your Primary ISP and have a secondary default route with a higher metric to failover to when the Primary ISP fails.

ASA/PIX 7.x to Support Dual ISP Links Configuration Example:
