ASA 5520 Mac OSX performance lag

I have a newly installed 5520 to be used soley as a vpn device.  It iis replacing a 3030 concentrator.  Now configured, my clients coming from 64bit OSX native clients have very slow connection rates.  My Win7 laptop only shows lag when downloading a 1gb file from the internal fileshare.  Half of my clients are mac users.  Does this seem like a client issue or an ASA issue?

I've posted a similar question yesterday evening..
By removing the preferences and starting new.. you solve the problem.. but please do me a favour.. and enable 'RULERS'... because this is DISABLED when starting new..
As soon as you enable RULERS.. the lag starts again.. (at my end anyway)
Disabling RULERS removes the lag.. so it must be related..
Please would you try this? to see if you have the same issue?
Thanks,
Roel

  • ASA 5520 RA VPN performance

    I need to configure RA VPN in ASA 5520 for about 100 mobile users.set up is
    Mobile users----->internet cloud------->1mbps.router1---->ASA---->inside n/w-----router2.8mbps-------->MPLS cloud---->512 mbps.eight Branches
    router1, asa, router 2 are in data centre and branches are connected via mpls.
    Remote users want to access their own application, file share and mail in their respective branch network.No internet connection on branches.So all users have to come to data centre and through mpls they reache their branch network.what could be the performance and any issue?

    I would pay close attention on bandwidth more than anything else, it would all depend on what type of traffic the 100 RA mobile users will be using at any given time that be traversing a 1meg pipe, for example 1 single RA user may copy 1 gig file from corporate server or vise versa which can saturate that pipe. You would have to create some sort of baseline on all link points before RA implementation to sort of get you a picture of current link utilization to plan accordinly and worry about bandwidth performance and plan accordingly.

  • Live Media  Encoder Windows vs Mac OSX performance?

    Hi all,
    We've got LME 3.1 set up on our Intel Core 2 Duo OSX Snow leopard machine and it's working, but we're dropping a few frames per second. We're working through the issues, but I am curious if OSX could be the cause of some problems. I noticed here:
    http://www.adobe.com/products/flashmediaserver/flashmediaencoder/systemreqs/
    that the system requirements seem a lot steeper for OSX than Windows.
    Does anyone know if OSX does in fact perform worse than Windows?
    Thanks in advance for any help / info!

    Are these Input Frame drops or Output Frame drops. Which Video codec you are using. Can you check

  • Performance Issue behind ASA 5520

    Hi Community!
    I've got an ASA 5520 (8.4.3) Failover Cluster.
    Behind this ASA i have a couple of DMZ Networks. In one of these Networks (lets call it DMZ-A) i have an performance issue.
    So, in DMZ-A i have 2 Windows2012R2 servers.
    IP Server1: 10.0.233.10/24
    IP Server2: 10.0.233.12/24
    If i do an RDP session to Server1 from my Client Computer (at the inside Network - IP: 10.0.20.199) it is really slow. Also File Transfer is very slow. Ping gives me a "normal" replay.
    If i do an RDP session to Server2 from my Client Computer everything works normal.
    If i do an RDP session from Server2 to Server1 everything works normal.
    I did a apcket capture to both servers, and when i analyse them with wireshark there is (at a sertain packet) a big difference. -> see attached files
    ASA_10 -> 10.0.233.10
    ASA_12 -> 10.0.233.12
    Can anybody help me finding out whats going wong there?
    Thanks a lot!!

    Hi ... thanks for the answer.
    Here is the Config. Hope i got all the relevant things in it.
    Somehow the NAT statement causes the trouble:
    object network 10.0.233.10
    nat (dmz233,outside) static XXX.XXX.XXX.133
    Because if i delete this statement, the RDP connection to the server works normal.
    I delete all the network objects and object groups.
    Also all the VPN configs are missing.
    DELETED THE ASA CONFIG BECAUSE I SOLVED THE PROBLEM!!!! -> misconfiguration
    Thanks !!

  • Mac osx lion 10.7.4 lagging

    Mac osx lion 10.7.4 lagging on macbook air after using for 30 to 40 minutes and when leave it alone for 5 min its again working smoothly.
    plz help wht is this problem

    Honestly I would never run both Win 7 & XP at the same time in a VM. 7 needs at least 4GB to run properly and uses more resources then XP.
    I personally use VMware Fusion and XP. At this time there is no software, that I'm aware of or use, that does not run on XP. So for my Mac Win VM purpose I only run XP with the software in need to use in Windows. This work very well for me. I have 2 CPUs and 3GBs of RAM assigned to XP. Leaving the other 2 CPU cores, 4 HT cores, and 5GBs of RAM for OS X.
    Not sure why you need, or want, to run both versions of Windows at the same time. I don't see the need as stated above.

    Hi guys,
    I just bought my new Mini and my second HP Wireless printer.
    For some reason it does not connect to any of my devices. I have installed all updates, added the printer many times to my network etc.
    When I start my HP laptop is does work perfect to print wireless - but I am unable to find the printer with my iPhone, iPad or Mac Mini. Anyone having an idea what to do?
    I also configured the printer on Mac OSx many times..

    You can check the Net log in the Web Console (Web Developer > Web Console;Ctrl+Shift+K) console to see if there are errors with retrieving files.
    You need reload the web pages and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files from the server.

  • Why can't I open a GarageBand recording on my iPhone in GarageBand on Mac OSX?

    I recorded an acoustic performance of my vocal quart last night on an iPhone running GarageBand 2.0.1 on iOS 7.1.2.  But I can't open it in GarageBand 11 (6.0.5) on Mac OSX 10.9.5.  What gives?
    Not only will it not open (and the software on my Mac platform is way more recent than on my iPhone, so you'd think it would be upward compatible), but when I try to open this iOS-created file on the Mac, it asks me where I want to save it ... it's already saved, I'm just trying to open it.
    I've looked at the reviews for the latest GarageBand, which it tells me I need to upgrade to, and they are terrible!  Many report that they wish they hadn't upgraded and that they could get back to an older version of GarageBand on their Mac.
    Does this mean I'm stuck and the two GarageBand platforms are not compatible and that I won't be able to open this file?  ... other thanes an mp3 in iTunes ...
    Thanks for any insights you can give me.

    it sounds like it's opening fine, but you're just not letting it finish.
    it's asking you to save a version of the song for the mac; if it saved over the original file, it could no longer be opened on the iOS device, if you needed to alter something later

  • ASA 5520 Upgrade From 8.2 to 9.1

    To All Pro's Out There,
    I have 2 x ASA 5520 in Active/Standby state (Routed, Single context) running 8.2(3) image. They are working great and everybody is happy. Now it's time for us to upgrade to the latest and greatest version: 9.1 and as you know there are some architectural changes Cisco made to NAT statements and Access Lists. As one can tell, we have a monster environment in terms of NAT statements and access list that are currently configured on the appliances.
    In order to make the upgrade process "less" painful, I was able to find a loaner ASA 5520 device so I can practice the upgrade process offline and if needed, I use it in production (in conjunction with existing Primary and Secondary devices) should it be helpful. I currently don't have any plans on how to move forward with these 3 devices and put together an smooth upgrade. I am asking advice from experts that perhaps have done this in the past and know some Do's and Don’ts and can provide me some options toward getting best result: Minimum downtime and Smooth upgrade.
    I appreciate all the help in advance.

    Hi,
    My personal approach from the start has been to learn the new NAT configuration format on the ASA CLI and manually convert the configurations for the new ASA software. I am under the impression that the automatic conversion that the ASA does by rebooting straight into a new software level causes quite a lot of configurations and they arent really optimal.
    In your case it seems that you have a pretty much better situation than most people that dont have the chance to use a test device to test out the setup before actually putting it in production.
    What you can basically do is
    Insert the 8.2 configuration to the test ASA and boot it straight to the higher software levels and see what the conversion has done to the ASA configurations.
    You can use "packet-tracer" command to test if correct NAT rules are still hit after the conversion
    So far I have been lucky in the sense that most of the upgrades I have done have involved new hardware which has basically let me configure everything ready and just switch devices for the customer. So far everything has went really well and there has been only a 1-2 mistakes in NAT configurations because of misstyping some IP address or interface name which basically resulted from a lot of copy/paste when building the configurations. And these couple of mistakes have been from around 150 firewall migrations (of which most from FWSM Security Context to a ASA Security Context)
    If you have time to put into this then I would suggest you try to learn the new NAT format and write your NAT configurations yourself. Converting the existing configurations should essentially give you the tools to then maintain that firewall configuration easily in the future and apply that knowledge elsewhere.
    If you want to read a bit about the new NAT configuration format then I would suggest having a look at the NAT 8.3+ document I made:
    https://supportforums.cisco.com/docs/DOC-31116
    My personal approach when starting to convert NAT configurations for the upgrade is
    Collect all NAT configurations from the current ASA including any ACLs associated with the Policy type NATs and NAT0 configurations
    Divide NAT configurations based on type   
    Dynamic NAT/PAT
    Static NAT
    Static PAT
    NAT0
    All Policy Dynamic/Static NAT/PAT
    Learn the basic configuration format for each type of NAT configuration
    Start by converting the easiest NAT configurations   
    Dynamic NAT/PAT
    Static NAT/PAT
    Next convert the NAT0 configurations
    And finally go through the Policy NAT/PAT configurations
    Finally go through the interface ACLs and change them to use the real IP address as the destination in all cases since the NAT IP address is not used anymore. In most common screnarios this basically usually only involves modifying the "outside" interfaces ACL but depending if the customer has some other links to external resourses then its highly likely that same type of ACL changes are required on those interfaces also.
    The most important thing is to understand how the NAT is currently working and then configure the new NAT configuration to match that. Again, the "packet-tracer" command is a great tool to confirm that everything is working as expected.
    One very important thing to notice also is that you might have a very large number of Identity NAT configurations between your local networks interfaces of the ASA.
    For example
    static (inside,dmz) 10.10.10.0 10.10.10.0 netmask 255.255.255.0
    In the new software you can pretty much leave all of these out. If you dont need to perform NAT between your local interfaces then you simply leave out all NAT configurations.
    Naturally you can also use these forums to ask help with NAT configuration conversions. Even though its a very common topic, I dont personally mind helping out with those.
    So to summarize
    Try out the ASAs automatic configuration conversion when simply booting to new software levels on the test ASA you have
    Learn the new NAT configuration format
    Ask for help here on CSC about NAT configuration formats and help with converting old to new configurations.
    Personally if I was looking at a samekind of upgrade (which I will probably be looking at again soon) I would personally do the following
    Convert the configurations manually
    Lab/test the configurations on an test ASA
    During Failover pairs upgrade I would remove the Standby device from network, erase its configurations, reboot it to new software, insert manually written configurations.
    Put the upgraded ASA to the device rack and have cables ready connected to the customer devices if possible (or use existing ones)
    Disconnect currently active ASA running 8.2 and connect the new ASA to the network while clearing ARP on the connected routers to avoid any problems with traffic forwarding.
    Test connectivity and monitor ASAs connection and xlate tables to confirm everything is working
    Will add more later if anything comes to mind as its getting quite late here
    Hope this helps

  • Mac OSX Lion 10.7.4 and Parallels (memory issues)

    I bought a 2011 Macbook Pro i7 2.2ghz with 4gb of ram, 5400 rpm 500gb hard drive.  Base 15 inch model pretty much. 
    I actually purchased it for a few reasons.  1) I had a 1200 dollar credit at a local electronics store and 2) I figured the battery life would be decent and 3) I was interested in playing around with Mac OSX a bit more.
    Long story short I still need to use windows for various applications and for work.  So I purchased Parallels since it seemed to have pretty good reviews and installed Windows 7 in one and Windows XP in one.  Giving them 2gb for 7 and 1 gb for windows XP.  Now since I knew I wouldn't have enough ram, I upgraded my ram to 8gb and upgraded the hard drive to a 7200 rpm.
    So this is where my problem is, I am unable to run both of them at the same time without Mac running out of memory and swapping like no tomorrow bringing the entire computer to a halt.
    In general Lion seems to be pretty slow, even without any virtual machines running.  I have done a reinstall of the entire OS, repaired permissions etc.
    So at this point I think I have come to the conclusion that the only solution is to again get more memory and go up to 16 gb, which is crazy in my opinion.  I also installed Windows 7 in bootcamp and then installed Vmware workstation and I can run 4 virtuals (1 windows 7, 2xps and a win2k3) before the base OS gets really sluggish, so it isn't the hardware, it is simply the OS.
    Case and point is my other laptop a Lenovo W700ds (for anyone who has seen this thing, it is a beast and has horrible battery life.. one of the reasons I wanted the Mac) runs a core2quad and has 8gb of ram but I usually keep 3 virtuals up without any hit to Windows 7.  But it also only gets 30-45 minutes of battery life, while my Macbook Pro gets about 2-2.5 hours of battery life with the virtuals running however everything runs like crap so I usually have to suspend and only keep 1 at a time open.
    My question being simply, is this normal?  Should better hardware have such poor performance or am I just expecting to much?  At this point my options are to install Windows 7 native (which i'd rather not do, I actually do like some of Lions features) or am I forced to buy even more ram?
    I was also thinking of getting rid of the superdrive and moving my main drive there and then getting a 256gb SSD as the primary.  But it seems to me at this point I am just dumping money into something that should already do what I want.  This would split the hard drive access load though.
    Any suggestions? 
    Thanks

    Honestly I would never run both Win 7 & XP at the same time in a VM. 7 needs at least 4GB to run properly and uses more resources then XP.
    I personally use VMware Fusion and XP. At this time there is no software, that I'm aware of or use, that does not run on XP.

  • Sharing files between a Windows Vista Business edition and a Mac osx 10.6.6

    Is there reliable information somewhere about how to share files from a Windows Vista business edition pc to a Mac osx 10.6.6?  I have googled instructions and followed the steps and still could not have sharing to happen between the Vista pc and the Mac.  These are the steps I have performed, I have made sure that
    o Both the Vista pc and the Mac have the same user account/password.
    o The firewall from the Vista side allows file and printer sharing in the exceptions.
    o Enabled sharing with a few directories on the Vista pc.
    o Changed the security policy on the Vista pc to "LM and NTLM - use NTLMV2 session security if negotiated".
    o On the Mac System Preferences > Sharing selected File sharing.
    On the Windows Vista pc, if I click the Start menu and then Network, the Mac does not appear.  On the Mac, from the Finder menu if I click Go > Connect to server and request a connection to the IP address of that Vista pc, I get an error, "Connection Failed"  (could not find pc or not available at this time).
    What else do I need?

    That was a great tutorial / walk through.
    In fact, I would say that was far easier than the entrophy route (which is good) as you can see exactly what you are doing rather than relying on an installer which has often failed in the past for me, and then just suddenly worked for no apparent reason!
    Just two things to improve it for other users, and they are really VERY minor... From previous experience, I knew where to find the php.ini.default file, but you don't let people know where to find that, and the links to the MySQL downloads were broken. I guess that is because the file names have changed or because I am coming at it from a different country. I got a message stating: 'That file does not exist on our download mirrors.'
    Thanks for doing that, I really appreciate you (and the likes of David Powers) taking the time to set these tutorials up for others to use.

  • 3050A Scanner won't talk to my Mac OSX 10.6.8

    I originally had the issue where the scanner was simply scanning a portion of the page (mentioned and solved in another thread here). However, my problem has now grown....
    I was temporarily able to the scan images correctly by going through the Applications folders and clicking on the Scan 3 icon and directing the scan from this. However, now even this won't work and the scanner doesn't communicate at all with my Mac OSX 10.6.8 - I can't even get it to scan from the control panel on the product. The printer works fine - however I haven't acutally checked the printer again since doing the following:
    I have uninstalled the software and reinstalled. I have checked for updates and it is indicating that I have updated software, yet when I click on HP Utility, I get the following error msg:
    Some components installed on your computer were developed for another version of HP Utility. These components will not be loaded and some functionality related to your device will not be accessible. Please click HP Support item on the toolbar to visit HP Online Support site and download the latest versions of HP software.
    I did this but I keep getting the msg that my software is up to date. So what now?
    I have noticed that there are 2 scan icons in the Applications folder and one of them doesn't register the product at all when clicked. The Scan 3 icon used to work, but now just perpetually tries to open a connection with the printer and never can, when I try to cancel it it then goes into perpetual canceling mode and the only way I can shut it down is to Force Quit.
    Any suggestions on how to remedy this before I throw my new HP 3050A off of the balcony

    exposè make 40fps and it is NOT fluid like a nvidia or ati card. Exposè is a simple animation, under arch linux and geforce3 (2001) is more more fluid respect leopard... and respect to tiger.
    with this hack:
    sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver Compositor -dict deferredUpdates 0
    exposè is much MORE fluid so it is a driver problem (because with tiger there's no problem!!)

  • IPhone not updating due to lack of iTunes and Mac OSX update

    Hello,
    I have an iPhone 3GS running software version 4.1 and am needing to update it to the next version. When I click on the 'update' button when the phone is connected to my MacBook, a window pops up that says 'This version of iTunes (9.2.1) is the current version'. I realize that iTunes needs to be updated as well, but in order to do that I need a different version of Mac OSX. I have an older MacBook and am currently running Mac OSX 10.4.11
    My question is: is the only way to update my iPhone at this point to purchase the OSX Leopard 10.5? I seem to be caught in a dilemna of not having the most up-to-date software on my computer, but I wish it didn't effect my iPhone performance.
    Any information would be helpful. Thank you!

    You can upgrade the MacBook directly to Snow Leopard for $29.00

  • AE CC 13.0.2 on Mac OSX 10.9.5 - file collecting feature does not work anymore

    hi, I am experiencing issues with the file collecting feature out of AE CC 13.0.2 on Mac OSX 10.9.5. I have the same kind of problems on my MacBook Pro Retina 15'' (2014) with 1TB SSD and 16 GB Ram and on my iMac (mid 2011 3,4 GHz Intel Core i7 16 GB RAM). I open a project without any problem, then try to collect onto an external hard drive. AE gives me error message, it cannot find a certain file (never the same file, I tried many times). I hand collected a current project onto external HD from my MacBook Pro, went to my imac, opened the hand collected Project from external HD (again no issue while opening) then again tried to perform the collect command. again error message notifying me that a certain file is missing. This is the case with different AE projects!! The After Effects collect files command to me is a very important feature that provides backup safety. with this feature not properly working I feel insecure, I need to fix this  asap.

    Oh yes. My bad. It is in face the one-second mark. And it is in every
    project I have tried.
    The assets in the first project that I noticed this happening on (which was

  • ASA 5520 VERSION 8.2 UPGRADE TO 9.0

    Hello friends,
    I am considering to perform an upgrade of my ASA 5520 with versión 8.2 to 9.0, so I will enjoy the benefits of anyconnect for mobile devices. I clearly understand that I must pay special attention to:
    NAT Rules.
    RAM Memory: 2 GB.
    Adding the part numbers to power on the newest versions of anyconnect and for mobile devices
    L-ASA-AC-E-5520= ASA-AC-M-5520=
    am I missing any other thing? Flash requirement? Or to pay attention to some other configurations? 
    Any comment or documentation will be appreciated.
    Regards!

    You can run the latest AnyConnect client - including mobile clients - with those licenses even on an ASA with the current  8.2 code - 8.2(5) as of now. While it's a bit old and lacking some of the newer features, it's a solid and stable release.
    That would save you the trouble of migrating your NAT configuration (and other bits) and upgrading memory.
    Since the ASA 5500 series (5510, 5520 etc.) is past End of Sales you have a limited future on those platforms. For instance, ASA 9.1(x) is the last set of code releases that will be available for them. (The current software on the 5500-X is 9.3(1).)

Maybe you are looking for
