Hi all, Please let me know will the below scenario is going to work? I have three unmanged switch and one cisco layer 3 switch. Please see attached diagram. If I connect the three unmanaged switch to the Cisco layer 3 switch and each connected port is configured with vlan 10, 20, 30 (as shown in the figure), will it be able to communicate with outside. Means If I connect one machine to first unmanaged switch and configured with IP 192.168.1.x range, connect another machine to the second unmanaged switch and assign the IP 10.0.1.x range, both machine able to get internet. (consider the configuration has already done in firewall and layer switch to get the internet for all vlans). Regards, Ejaz   ... View more

Hi Experts, We have a small network having 6 to 10 users and single VLAN. All were using 3Cx soft phone in their machines. Users are complaining about the voice quality so we have upgraded our bandwidth and enabled QOS in the router. But still users experiencing the same issue. The router is managed by ISP. Apart from router we have a small unmanaged switch in our network.  My doubt is how can we enable the QOS for softphones. In case of hardphones we ca create seperate vlan for voice and enable QOS in switch (managble switch). But this is not possible with softphones. I would like to hear suggestions from you guys. Thanks & Regards, Ejaz ... View more

Hi Experts, Please help me on this, I have upgraded my cisco asa from 8.2 to 9.1 version. I know that cisco made huge changes in NAT configuration. The firewall 8.2 is configured with lots  static PAT and dynamic PAT lines. Now I am going to convert these lines to 9.1 format. I have successfully configured the static PAT line, which mainly doing the port forward (ie same port number on external and internal). But i got stuck in port redirection, it is not working for me. Please see the following lines that I configured my firewall 1.  RDP connection to one of the internal machine  from external Object network Obj_RDP_192.168.1.10 host 192.168.1.10 nat (inside, outside) static x.x.x.x access-list outside_inside extended permit tcp any host 192.168.1.10 eq 3389 The above lines are working for me. I can RDP to the machine 192.168.1.10 from external using the public IP x.x.x.x Now see the below command which is not working for me: 2. RDP to another internal machine  (Since the port 3389 already used for the first machine, I selected port 2000 here) Object network Obj_RDP_192.168.1.11 1host 192.168.1.11 nat (inside, outside) static x.x.x.x service tcp 3389 2000 access-list outside_inside extended permit tcp any host 192.168.1.11 eq 2000 Please provide me a solution for the 2nd configuration line.   Regards, Ejaz ...
