Transparent Firewall on Trunk Links

[tlienskt]

Is it possible to have a Transparent Firewall on Trunk Link.  I have 3 vlans.

Current

S1 3750 ------- S2 3750

trunk link passing 3 vlans

switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
switchport mode trunk
 

S1 3750 -----  PIX515 ------   S2 3750 

Please provide a sample config.  Thanks!!

Yes it is possible.  You will however be limited to 8 that will be able to cross the ASA though.  All you need to do is configure the trunk port on the switch, as you have provided in your configuration.  Then on the ASA configure subinterfaces and BVI interface for each VLAN.

interface gig0/1

no shut

interface gig0/1.10

vlan 10

nameif INSIDE_1

security-level 100

bridge-group 10

interface gig0/1.20

vlan 20

nameif INSIDE_2

security-level 50

brige-group 20

interface bvi10

ip add 10.10.10.1 255.255.255.0

interface bvi 20 

ip add 20.20.20.1 255.255.255.0

When I try to assign the nameif to the 3rd sub interface.  I get the following error.

ERROR: Maximum number of interfaces already configured.

What license do you have installed on the ASA?  

could you post your configuration please.

I posted the license above and it is a PIX not a ASA.

[Marius Gunnerud · Accepted solution]

Maximum Physical Interfaces : 3

You need to upgrade your license so you can configure more interfaces.  If you have 3 VLANs you will need 6 interfaces and 6 VLANs.  YOu need a different VLAN because you are not able to configure the same VLAN on more than 1 interface.

PIX licenses are no longer sold, so you will have to upgrade to an ASA if you need to get this working.

OK so I got the ASA running.  Still having issues.  NO traffic is being passed.  Below is the config.

Any help on this??

[Marius Gunnerud]

sorry for the late reply.

You need to either add the command same-security-traffic permit inter-interface or add ACLs to the interfaces allowing the desired traffic.
