Hi ,

     Hope you got the issue resolved.

     If not please check the asp drops where you can identify the reason for security check drops.

     # show asp drops

     Most probably SP-Security (Slowpath) will be Session Management path. This path is responsible for  

    * Performing the access list checks
    * Performing route lookups
    * Allocating NAT translations (xlates)

    * Establishing sessions in the "fast path"    

You can also provide the output of show asp drop here.

If issue resolved, please provide the solution here which can be more helpful.

 

Regards

Suresh
