Hello guys,
Please help me to configure my ASA5505 with a router cisco 2900 series behind it. My toplogy is the following:
internet -> ASA5505 -> Cisco 2900 -> Switch
internet -> 10.1.1.1 -> 192.168.100.1 ->Switch
When I connect a computer behind the ASA5505 directly I have internet on it.
When I connect a computer behind the Cisco 2900 Router I don't have internet, but can ping 10.1.1.1.
Can you give me advice how to configure the ASA5505 that I have internet on the Cisco Router?
Thank you.
Hey,
I will provide the configurations at the end of next week. The Cisco router does not have default route set, because im not sure how to add it. Inside the asa I have set the route to Cisco Router.
And my other question is - do I need that Cisco 2900
Can I exclude it and use only the ASA5505 as a firewall and a router?
INTERNET -> ASA5505 -> Internal Network
I expect to have about 150-200 ips on the internal network.
Thank you.
And what are the disadvantages of using only ASA? Are there any? Maybe security or slowness ?
The ASA 5505 is End of life, if you have 150-200 connections behind the firewall it might impact performance.
No need to use the 2900 router.
You may wish to replace this firewall with the newer Firepower hardware, info here.

Thank you for the answers. Do you think that a Mikrotik CCR1009-7G for example can handle the job to be a good firewall and a router? Thank you again RJI.
