ASA Active - Active vPC on Nexus for redundancy

Hi everyone!

 

I have a pair of ASA 5585 in multiple mode with active/active failover and im trying to improve the redundancy.

 

In the upper layer i have a pair of nexus providing the network access on one interface but the ASA pair it also has another interface unused so my question: is there any way to configure a vPc between 2 different nexus of the fabric and the ASAs?

 

Thanks for your help!

Well, the answer is yes, all i had to do was to configure the vPC between the two nexus and the two ASA.

 

In the nexus layer it was a vPC to the primary ASA and another vPC to the secondary ASA.

In the ASA side it was a portchannel in each box with one interface from the prim-ASA to NEXUS1 and another interface from the sec-ASA to NEXUS2

 

Yep it was that simple.
