Hello,

I am new in Cisco ASA Firewalls. Now I'm using Cisco ASA with IOS Version 8.2(4). Appliance is configured and properly working, but I need to make some configuration changes. I want to allow communication between VLANs: 80 (emp) and 101 (storage). To do that I have put following command to avoid translation between VLANs:

static (emp,storage) 10.1.8.0 10.1.8.0 netmask 255.255.255.0

but it doesn't work:

# packet-tracer input emp tcp 10.1.8.10 www 172.16.0.254 www

Phase: 1

Subtype: input

I am confused because communication between VLANs 100 and 101 occurs:

What should I do?
Modify: nat (storage) 1 172.16.0.0 255.255.255.0 or increase VLANs 80 security-level to 91?

I am assuming you have NAT control configure?

show run nat-control

I would suggest either disabling nat-control or adding a nat 0 statement for the storage interface.

Personally I would disable nat-control.

raising the security level will not have any effect in this situation.  And if you have access-lists configured on the interfaces the security levels are not even used.

Hello Marius,

Thank you for the response.

The nat-control is disabled:

ASA-5520-1p2-CORE# show run nat-control
no nat-control

So the only way is to add nat 0 statement for the storage interface?

Why I don't have any problems with communication between mgm and storage?
