I hope this is the correct section for my problem.
I am working on a mock network using Packet Tracer 7.3.0. The setup is as follows:
- 3 Layer 3 (3560) switches connected to each other using LACP EtherChannel. One of them is doing the VLAN routing, which is working just fine.
- 5 Layer 2 (2960) switches with a link each to two of the switches for redundancy. Access Points are connected here and WiFi works fine.
- The third L3 switch is connected to a 5506-x ASA
- 1 5506-x FW connecting 4 zones, Inside (100), Outside (0). DMZ (50) and DataCenter (70).
I have two problems;
- I have an L3 EtherChannel between the L3 Switch and ASA which keeps going down whenever I restart the devices and have to remove the member ports then add them back for the port to come up.
- The ASA blocks return traffic. When I use simulation mode, I can see traffic going to the intended recipient but the return traffic drops when it reaches the ASA.
I have attached the .ptk file in an archive as .pkt is not a valid extension here.
Thanks in advance.
