Hi,

Please read following configuration & Issue & please help to resolve this.(Network Structure Router to ASA to L3 Switch) 

Router 3945

R1 WAN 10.84.35.202/30
R1 LAN 10.84.35.211/28 (Primary router)


ASA (5545):-10.84.35.210/28 Outside
                   10.84.35.65/26 Inside
                  Default route for 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.84.35.211

L3:- L3 VLAN on Switch
Vlan 2 10.84.32.1/23
Vlan 3 10.84.34.1/24
Vlan 4 10.84.35.1/26
VLAN 5 10.84.35.65/26


In this case from ASA i will be reach to router (35.211 & 202) & switch (10.84.35.66)
From router able to reach ASA (10.84.35.210) & Switch also able to rech 10.84.35.65

HI ,

Please find ASA config & guide me.

Hi ,

Please reply waiting from your reply ...

Hello,

in your initial post, you stated that the outside interface of the ASA was configured with:

ASA (5545):-10.84.35.210/28 Outside

However, the running config of your ASA shows that the IP address is 10.84.35.213. Also, you have a failover IP address.

interface GigabitEthernet0/1
description "Connected to R1"
management-only
nameif OUTSIDE1
security-level 0
ip address 10.84.35.213 255.255.255.240 standby 10.84.35.209. The default route on your ASA:

route OUTSIDE1 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.84.35.209 1

points to the standby address and not to the next hop on R1. Is the IP address of R1, on the interface that is connected to the ASA, 10.84.35.211/28 as originally posted ? And is there a secondary router ?

What happens if you change:

route OUTSIDE1 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.84.35.209 1

to

route OUTSIDE1 0 0 10.84.35.211

Post the running config of R1 and the config of any secondary router as well.

Hi Sir,

You are right this is not 211 it is 210 last time I have add 210 route on switch.

Its some mistake I ask 211 route but add 210 route.

Yes here is 2 router but second router not in picture it directly connected to L3 & process is up when another ASA come then it will be in picture

Please find router config..I think something is wrong on ASA  Or need to add route please guide & suggest for closed this case

Hello

just to confirm   --- L3 <>ASA<>WAN rtr

From your post and the SW config it looks like vlan 4-5 are the wrong way around.

The SW is connected to the ASA via vlan 4 on either port gig1/0/10 or 11 (10.84.35.66/26) so if this is correct then it's default should be

IP route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.84.35.65

Can you post the ASA config to cross check that also

To setup layer 3 switch to ASA communication you could assign a default gateway to your SVIs and have a default route pointing to the IP of your ASAs inside interface.

Plug in your ASA into f0/1 on the switch and assign it to a vlan. 10.1.1.1 should be the IP on the ASA interface.
