We're deploying two 5516Xs tonight, and I had taken for granted the config because I couldn't pre-assign IPs because they will be replacing our current firewalls that use the same IPs.
So I've held off until today, and now we're staging things and ...
Honest to god, I find out about a new Cisco landing page that has incredible tools, resources and/or knowledge with startling regularity. That actually makes me nervous: when companies have so many tools and resources online, nothing is conveniently ...
I'm setting up a new pair of 5516Xs, and have no lab environment, so I'm running analysis against the configs to give me a high level head's up until we start actual testing next week. This is a config from our old 5510s, so I'm expecting errors rela...
Just received the firewalls, and I've been researching this issue for a long time, due to the conversion of NAT and access-rules. However, we do run 5515s with 9.x, so I'm familiar with the rules.
Besides those obvious translation items, and interf...
Hmmm,
This kinda screwed me. We've been wanting to upgrade our edge and core switches to have a 10Gbit backbone. We purchased all new 3650x to replace our EOL 3560s, and as they happen to support 2 10Gbit SFPs, this looked like a good starting poin...
If it's a fresh image, the enable password is blank. You should be able to type enable, hit enter and when it asks for a password, hit enter again. Once you're in enable mode, go into global configuration mode with config t then issue enable secret <...
Yeah, I figured that out too late. My assumption is the 10Gbit capability is built into the switch itself, but you need the Network Module to access it. I mean, the ports have MAC addresses! So they must be present in some capacity, but not usable wi...
Thank you for the information, both of you. My next question would be, if you buy a Firepower Firewall like the 2110, what functionality do you get from FTD out of the box? I understand the firewall component (anyconnect, failover, security licenses...
Thank you Georg, that makes sense, and I could probably remove the extraneous logic. We're doing the migration tomorrow night, so I appreciate the information.
