Dear Community,
I would have a short question to you. I currently have some troubles in connecting our ASA5508-X to the Internet. The architecture is the following:
Internet Service Provider <=> Cisco ASA 5508-X <=> Internal Server
In this regards I would have the following questions to you:
1. Can you confirm that the ASA 5508-X with FirePower can connect to our ISP without an additional device (router)? We have a VDSL connection and wanted to establish the connection directly.
In the past we used a small AVM router and just inserted "Username, password, etc.".
ISP <=> AVM Router <=> ASA5508-X <=> Internal
Can we just do the same with the ASA?
ISP <=> ASA5508-X <=> Internal
2. Is that correct that we would have two possibilities to configure the outside interface ?
2.1. Via PPPoE
2.2. Via static IP (given by the ISP)
I tested the PPPoE connection in the past, but without success (via ASDM). That means:
1. I selected the outside interface and pressed edit
2. inserted PPPoE username and password
3. Chose a name for the Group
4. changed the MTU to 1492
I saved the settings, but outside interface is still offline.
Best Greetings
