communication betn same sec levels

[aksher]

Is there any change required for intervlan comm. on FWSM with same sec levels other than usual conf like sec level,ip add,nameif on the specific int/vlan.

I am unfamiliar with the FWSM but in PIX/ASA you can use the following command.

same-security-traffic permit inter-interface

[daviddtran]

what you said is true only for version 7.2(1) or

higher. If your version on the Pix/ASA is not

7.2(1) or higher, this will only work for

IPSec traffic.

in FWSM, version 3.1(3) does not have this

feature because FWSM code is always behind

pix/ASA code.

Hi

Actually the FWSM v2.3 supports this commmand as does 3.1. From one of our FWSM's

SZ-JFH-F00-DTE-FW1/dev-ct# conf t

SZ-JFH-F00-DTE-FW1/dev-ct(config)# same ?

Usage: [no] same-security-traffic permit inter-interface

[no] same-security-traffic permit intra-interface

show same-security-traffic

SZ-JFH-F00-DTE-FW1/dev-ct(config)# sh ver

FWSM Firewall Version 2.3(2)

FWSM Device Manager Version 4.1(1)

Whilst it's generally true that FWSM v2.x equates to Pix v6.x and FWSM v3.x equates to v7.x the FWSM code is not just a replica of the pix equivalent.
