MS NLB with ASA and Static NAT from PUP to NLB IP

Hi all,
I am trying to get MS NLB up and running. It is almost all working. Below is my physical setup.
ASA 5510 > Cat 3750X >2x ESXi 5.1 Hosts > vSwitch > Windows 2012 NLB Guest VMs.
I have two VMs runing on two different ESXi hosts. They have two vNICs. One for managment and one for inside puplic subnet. The inside puplic subnet NICs are in the NLB cluster. The inside public subnet is NATed on the ASA to a outide public IP.
192.168.0.50 is the 1st VM
192.168.0.51 is the 2nd VM
192.168.0.52 is the cluster IP for heartbeat
192.168.0.53 is the cluster IP for NLB traffic.
0100.5e7f.0035 is the cluster MAC.
The NLB cluster is using MULTICAST
I have read the doumentation for both the ASA and CAT switch for adding a static ARP using the NLB IP and NLB MAC.
For the ASA I found
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/asa/asa84/asdm64/configuration_guide/mode_fw.html#wp1226249
ASDM
Configuration > Device Management > Advanced > ARP > ARP Static Table
I was able to add my stic ARP just fine.
However, the next step was to enable ARP inspection.
Configuration > Device Management > Advanced > ARP > ARP Inspection
My ASDM does not list ARP Inspection, only has the ARP Static Table area. Not sure about this.
For the CAT Switch I found
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/switches/ps708/products_configuration_example09186a0080a07203.shtml
I added the both the ARP and Static MAC. For the static MAC I used the VLAN ID of the inside public subnet and the interfaces connected to both ESXi hosts.
On the ASA I added a static NAT for my outside Public IP to my inside pupblic NLB IP and vise versa. I then added a DNS entry for our domain to point to the outside public IP. I also added it to the public servers section allowing all IP traffic testing puproses.
At any rate the MS NLB is working ok. I can ping both the Public IP and the Inside NLB IP just fine from the outside. (I can ping the inside NLB IP becuase I'm on a VPN with access to my inside subnets) The problem is when I go to access a webpade from my NLB servers using the DNS or the Public IP I get a "This Page Can't Be Displyed" messgae. Now while on the VPN if I use the same URL but insied use the NLB IP and not the Public IP it works fine.
So I think there is soemthing wrong with the NATing of the Public to NLB IP even tho I can ping it fine. Below is my ASA Config. I have bolded the parts of Interest.
Result of the command: "show run"

Any help would be great! I think the issue is in teh NAT as I am able to access NLB IP from the outside and could not do that before adding the Static ARP stuff.
Thanks,
Chris

Also If I change to NAT from the public IP to the NLB IP to use either one of the phsyical IPs of the NLB cluster (192.168.0.50 or 51) it works fine when using the public IP. So it's definatly an issue when NATing the VIP of NLB cluster.

Dynamic PAT and Static NAT issue ASA 5515

Hi All,
Recently we migrated our network to ASA 5515, since we had configured nat pool overload on our existing router the users are able to translated their ip's outside. Right now my issue was when I use the existing NAT configured to our router into firewall, it seems that the translation was not successful actually I used Dynamic NAT. When I use the Dynamic PAT(Hide) all users are able to translated to the said public IP's. I know that PAT is Port address translation but when I use static nat for specific server. The Static NAT was not able to translated. Can anyone explain if there's any conflict whit PAT to Static NAT? I appriciate their response. Thanks!
- Bhal

Hi,
I would have to guess that you Dynamic PAT was perhaps configured as a Section 1 rule and Static NAT configured as Section 2 rule which would mean that the Dynamic PAT rule would always override the Static NAT for the said host.
The very basic configured for Static NAT and Default PAT I would do in the following way
object network STATIC
host
nat (inside,outside) static dns
object-group network DEFAULT-PAT-SOURCE
network-object
nat (inside,outside) after-auto source dynamic DEFAULT-PAT-SOURCE interface
The Static NAT would be configured as Network Object NAT (Section 2) and the Default PAT would be configured with Twice NAT / Manual NAT (after-auto specifies it as Section 3 rule)
This might sound confusing. Though it would be easier to say what the problem is if we saw the actual NAT configuration. Though I gave the reason that I think is probably one of the most likely reasons if there is some conflict with the 2 NAT rules
You can also check out a NAT document I made regarding the new NAT configuration format and its operation.

Elitebook 2540p: Faint sound and static coming from speakers...Need Help!

I am having issues with my new 2540P. I can hear faint sound and static coming from my speakers as well as my headphones when I plug into the jack. I first started having this issue when I plugged additional speakers into the jack and USB while talking on Skype..
I am running Win7. I tried troubleshooting drivers and hardware, disabling and enabling, and a system restore going back one day...but no luck. When I disable the speakers, I stopped hearing even the faint sound. I also tried plugging and unplugging the jack 20 times.
Is it possible that this is a hardware failure (jack and/or sound card)?
Does anyone have other suggestions?

I am running XP and have same problem. Sound now gone after "pop". Customer services suggests hardware failure and send back to factory. Flashing BIOS and updating IDT audio driver will not fix the problem.
Possible speaker failure or audio chip failure.

Help with writing and retrieving data from a table field with type "LCHR"

Hi Experts,
I need help with writing and reading data from a database table field which has a type of "LCHR". I have given an example of the original code but don't know what to change it to in order to fix it and still read in the original data that's stored in the LCHR field.
Basically we have two Function modules, one that saves list data to a database table and one that reads in this data. Both Function modules have an identicle table which has an array of fields from type INT4, CHAR, and type P. The INT4 field is the first one.
Incidentally this worked in the 4.7 non-unicode system but is now dumping in the new ECC6 Unicode system.
Thanks in advance,
C
SAVING THE LIST DATA TO DB
DATA: L_WA(800).
LOOP AT T_TAB into L_WA.
ZDBTAB-DATALEN = STRLEN( L_WA ).
MOVE: L_WA to ZDBTAB-RAWDATA.
ZDBTAB-LINENUM = SY-TABIX.
INSERT ZDBTAB.
READING THE DATA FROM DB
DATA: BEGIN OF T_DATA,
             SEQNR type ZDBTAB-LINENUM,
             DATA type ZDBTAB-RAWDATA,
           END OF T_TAB.
Select the data.
SELECT linenum rawdata from ZDBTAB into table T_DATA
     WHERE repid = w_repname
     AND rundate = w_rundate
     ORDER BY linenum.
Populate calling Internal Table.
LOOP AT T-DATA.
APPEND T_DATA to T_TAB.
ENDLOOP.

Hi Anuj,
The unicode flag is active.
When I run our report and then to try and save the list data a dump is happening at the following point
LOOP AT T_TAB into L_WA.
As I say, T_TAB consists of different fields and field types whereas L_WA is CHAR 800. The dump mentions UC_OBJECTS_NOT_CONVERTIBLE
When I try to load a saved list the dump is happening at the following point
APPEND T_DATA-RAWDATA to T_TAB.
T_DATA-RAWDATA is type LCHR and T_TAB consists of different fields and field types.
In both examples the dumps mention UC_OBJECTS_NOT_CONVERTIBLE

Using both Dynamic and Static NAT with two Different Internet facing Subnets

We have two Class C Public Address subnets. We started with Subnet (A) and have many of our Internet accessible devices on it. It is running on a Cisco PIX 515R. We bought a new ASA 5510 8.3(2) and started Migrating the Users and new servers to it so I started with our second Class C Subnet (B). Later on down the road I found out that if the Firewalls Default Gateway is is set to a (B) Interface subnet, then the servers that are statically mapped to a (A) Address will have a (B) address when they communicate out to the internet. So they are receiving packets on their (A) Address, though replying to them with a (B) address.
It was mentioned that I should be able to combine static and dynamic NAT mapping to allow devices behind the firewall to have a fixed external Address when communicating outbound as well as inbound.
So For instance I want the Following: when the Internal Replies I want the reply to come from the mapped IP, not a IP from the Dynamic Pool.

Any Suggestions?
Thanks!

Not sure why I have Multiple Entries. )-: I did think it was Odd. I think it might be because I looking at examples of the new and old styles of NAT.
We have a Single ISP, though have 2 separate non-Contiguous Class C Addresses from them. We host some Servers on one subnet and some on the other.
I'm looking for a way to use both Subnets on the same ASA.

I could try to post some sanitized Configs of my PIX and ASA if needed. But the end result I'm trying to do is have the ASA do NAT for multiple Public Subnets.

Routing issue with ASA and UC540 phone system - at ASA???

Having an issue with routing from the PC at .242 to the CUE server at 10.1.10.1. The CUE server is built into the UC540 phone system. It is an internal piece of software that is used for voicemail and management. The UC540 is not only a call router, it is also an IOS router. It has it's own WAN connection as does the ASA.
Here are some facts:
1. Can ping the UC540's internal CUE server from the PC ( ping to 10.1.10.1 )
2. Can ping the UC540's VLAN 1 address from the PC ( ping to 10.1.10.1 )
3. The ASA is the default gateway for the PC.
4. I have a route inserted at the asa that is:
               route 10.1.10.1 255.255.255.0 10.19.250.254 1
5. I have a nat statement that prevents NAT from occuring but I don't think this is necessary as the 10.1.10.0/24 network isn't otherwise defined on the      ASA.
6. I cannot pull up a web page when I point the browser on the PC to the 10.1.10.1 address
7. I CAN pull up a web page on the PC when I create a static route on the PC iteslf :
               route add 10.1.10.1 mask 255.255.255.0 10.19.250.254
     Is is only with this route that I am able to get to the web GUI on the phone system.
8. The phone system has a loopback interface at 10.1.10.2 that serves as the gateway for the internal CUE server, the internal CUE server is at      10.1.10.1
9. The switch is a 2960 and has a trunk port to the phone system to allow for the voice vlan which is at 10.1.1.0/24, no issues with this vlan and phones      are connecting to the system fine.
Since I can get the GUI to come up when I set a static route on the PC, then I would assume that the routing in the phone system with it's internal server is fine as it wouldn't work otherwise. Since I can successfully ping the CUE server from the PC, that would lead me to believe that the ASA's routing is setup correctly..... TCP traffic doesn't seem to get to/from the CUE server.
Here are the routing tables:
ASA:

Any help appreciated!!!
Thanks!

Hello,
Where you able to solve this problem? It does sound like an issue with TCP state checking on the ASA. The Firewall needs to see both sides of the traffic but the return traffic is going from your UC540 direct to the PC. The firewall essentially kills the traffic.
I would recommend disabling TCP state checking on the ASA and see if it works. Otherwise, you will need to stub route the UC540 as a separate VLAN off the ASA which needs to route through the ASA to reach the PC.
Here is a info page on the TCP State Bypass:
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/security/asa-5500-x-series-next-generation-firewalls/111986-asa-tcp-bypass-00.html
Please let me know how it works out.

Help Needed with ASA 8.3+ NAT

Hi,
I'm having an issue configuring NAT on an ASA running 8.3. Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction.
I've managed to configure NAT from the Inside interface to the DMZ, using PAT, so that the traffic is hidden behind the IP of the DMZ interface. This seems to work ok.
object network obj_any-18
subnet 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0
object network obj_any-18
nat (inside,dmz1.005) dynamic interface
The problem I have is when I try to configure a rule for traffic that originates in the DMZ back to the Inside. I can't seem to get any traffic to flow from the DMZ to the Inside, and sometimes I manage to stop traffic flowing in both directions!
What would be the best way to configure the return traffic from the DMZ to the Inside.
Thanks,
Paul

Hi Varun,
I have removed the nat statement below from the config;
nat (dmz1.005_8.3_nat_test,inside) source static net_dmz1.005 net_dmz1.005 destination static grp_dmz1.005_nonat grp_dmz1.005_nonat unidirectional
And then added;
nat (dmz1.005_8.3_nat_test,inside) 1 source dynamic any interface
Traffic doesn't flow in either direction now.
If I disable the new nat statement, I can ping from the inside to dmz1.005, and the IP is hidden behind the dmz1.005 interface. But I can't ping in the other direction.
Do you want me to PM you the config?
Paul

ACE and static NAT

Hello
I had pix+CSM on 6500. I've changed it to new ACE module on 6500.
I've made loadbalancing which was done on CSM. Now i wanted to connect dmz which was connected to pix and make static DNAT.
I used configuration guide/examples from: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/interfaces_modules/services_modules/ace/v3.00_A1/configuration/security/guide/nat.html
I need to make static DNAT, but i can't figure how it works. There are many errors in this document including incorrect (old?) syntax (for example: nat static 192.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 80 vlan 101)
I analyzed three examples at the and of this document. My questions:
1. how do i choose if it's source or destination NAT ?
2. do i always apply service-policy to vlan interface which receives packets which should be natted ?
3. What is class-map(it's ACL) choosing ? Incoming traffic which destination address should be changed ?
4. is in command: "nat static A netmask netmaskA vlan B" A is outside ip address before translation to inside address ?
5. Could anybody give me a simple example of static DNAT ? (or any links?)
Thanx

Destination nat is equivalent to loadbalancing to one server.
I would therefore configure a vip being the inbound destination address, and a rserver which would be the outbound nated destination ip address.
Then create a policy-map to link the 2 together and apply the policy-map to the incoming vlan, or you can apply it globally.
For the reverse connections, where you then need to nat the source ip back to the 'VIP' you use the static nat config that you have found in the document.
By the way, I don't see anything wrong with it.
Those commands are in A1 and also the new A2 release.
ACE is really a loadbalancer with some firewall features and not the opposite.
This is why pure nating functions are not straightfoward to configure.

Who needs the ACLs and static NAT?

I came apon a job whose network layout is kind of tricky. Here is the skinny:
2 routers (both 1721s). One is SBCs and it plugs into the internet on WIC interface. Nic interface plugs into a PIX 506E Firewall. The firewall does the PAT. The other eth port on the firewall plugs into the switch. The other router's WIC card plugs into the franchise intranet, and the NIC plugs into the switch.
All the PCs, servers, etc have the default gateway set to the ethernet interface of the franchise 1721. That router looks at the destination address and decides if it needs to go out it's WIC (if the dest. address is on the corporate intranet's subnet) or if it needs to go out to the internet (through the firewall and out the other router).
Now heres what I am trying to accomplish:
The customer wants to be able to telnet into one machine in the private network from her house.
Obviously, I need an ACL on the SBC router because thats where the request is comming from. I also have set up static NAT on the router from a public IP (in our valid range that SBC provides) and the private IP of the machine that she wants to access.
Currently, it is not working. I thought it had something to do with the other router so I started contacting the network engineers at the franchise office to get them to open up their router to allow telnet.
I now think however, that the reason it is not working is I have the static NAT on the wrong device!!
Shouldn't it be on the firewall, because the SBC router doesn't know anything about those private addresses (the PAT happens on the firewall).
Is my hunch right? Can you please advise me on what devices will needs changes in their ACLs and which device(s) will need static NAT mapping? I don't want to open any thing I don't have to. Thanks!!

I just came from the clients office. I am a little lost here. I am quite nifty at the CLI of a router or a switch, but every other firewall I have dealt with (Sonicwall, Watchgaurd, etc) has had a web based GUI. I am new in the field and have never configured a PIX before.
Here's what I have right now:
SBC router is configured to allow Telnet traffic in.
The PIX 506E has PAT configured on it. I tried setting up static NAT with no luck on the firewall. Attached is my running config. Perhaps you could instruct me on a some commands I can throw at this box to make this whole mess work!!
Let 207.184.18.10 be the address of the internal machine we want to access and SERVER.PUBLIC.IP be the public address we should point our telnet client to get in.

Dropdown box with query *and* static values?

Hi guys,
If I had a dropdown box with a LOV being generated from a query,
Select distinct PERSON from USER_TABLE
Bill
Fred
Steve
Is it possibe to somehow add static values so that they sit permanently on top of what ever values are produced by the query?
Null
Not Null
Bill
Fred
Steve
Thanks,
Neil.

select 'Null' d, 'Null' r from dual
union all
select 'Not Null' d, 'Not Null' r from dual
union all
select distinct person d, person r from user_table
...like that?

Creating user accounts with OIDDAS and use them from the OS

Hi,
I have a customer that is experiencing an error creating user accounts from OIDDAS, and use that user accounts from the operating system.
My customer is using OID/OAS4OS 10.1.4.2.0, and that version is not longer available to download, then, I will try in my own environment
with OID/OAS4OS 10.1.4.3.0.
And the question is the following: is supported to create user accounts with OIDDAS and expect that users can work with OAS4OS and be
able to authenticate in the operating system?
For the reference, SR# 7222351.993:
Thanks,
Luis Vivero.

Hi Jacco,
I didn't see your post before.
Nop, unfortulately I don't have a document with that. I just received that answer
from development (related to the plugin for AD that is not certified, and DAS is
not intended to work with OAS4OS).
Anyway, about the plugin to work with AD, this is working for me; at least I tested
it by configuring the plugin, I configured synchronization, the mapping file, I did
the bootstrap, and the accounts that were bootstraped now shows the OS attributes
on DAS.

Help! Problems with Automatic and Discretionary Hyphens from FrameMaker

Does anyone know how to prevent RoboHelp from picking up automatic and discretionary hyphens from linked FrameMaker files?
I'm in a situation where I need to use automatic hyphens (and sometimes discretionary hyphens to prevent strange breaks) in my chapter titles and heading 1s. RoboHelp is great about ignoring the auto/disc hyphens in inline text (i.e., the titles and heading do not include the hyphen because they are not needed).
For example:
This Heading in FrameMaker...
Appears as this in RoboHelp...
Which is...
Recording
Service Infor-
mation
Recording Service Information
Correct
RoboHelp fails, however, when it comes to including the auto/disc hyphens in cross references and filenames. Even if the cross-reference text appears correctly in FrameMaker, the hyphens always show up in the cross-reference text in RoboHelp.
For example:
This Cross-Reference in FrameMaker...
Appears as this in RoboHelp...
Which is...
Recording Service Information
Recording Service Infor-mation
Incorrect
Additionally, the filename given is "Recording_Service_Infor-mation.htm" which is not what I want.
Why is RoboHelp smart enough to ignore the automatic and discretionary hyphens in inline text, but not smart enough to ignore them in cross-reference text and file names?
Is there a seeting I can change to fix this? thank you very much for any help you can provide!!
System Info:
Windows XP SP3
Technical Communication Suite 2 (FrameMaker 9.0p255 and RoboHelp 8.0.2.208)

Normally the hyphens are handled fine in RoboHelp. However, there seems to be a specific scenario where you are facing issue as mentioned by you. It will be great if you can share a sample FrameMaker document leading to such an issue when converted in RoboHelp. You can upload the document at acrobat.com or any other location and share the download URL.
Also, please specify any settings/mappings applied for FM document conversion.

ASA 5505 Static NAT

Hi Guys,
Me again asking for some more help, thanks.
I am trying to deploy a Polycom Access Director behind an ASA 5505 firewall and am having some problems configuring inbound NAT for this device.
Currenlty I am able to dial from an endpoint outbound through the ASA with no problem but am unable to dial into the VC endpoint by the IP address (Traffic is not hitting the Access Director)
This blog post shows what I am trying to achieve along with the ACLs that I have applied.

If I move my NAT statement as follows

I am able to dial outbound still with no issues and am also able to intiate a call inbound which partially connects. The call seems to fail at the Capabilities exchange so the RTP media stream does not start up so there is some additional troubleshooting to be done.
However moving this NAT statement has the side effect of breaking the IPSec VPN that I have configured for the Cisco VPN Client, I would like to be able to keep my VPN working and be able to do a port forwards/Static 1:1 NAT towards my RPAD.
Once this is happy and working I can then go and troubleshoot why inbound calls are failing at the cpabilities exchange.

Thanks a lot Jon, for assisted me solve this problem.
The weird thing that i can't undestand, is that the icmp was working without a problem using the above mentioned access-list however accesing the web server using www wasn't working.
How you explain that?

L2L VPN with source and destination NAT

Hello,
i am new with the ASA 8.4 and was wondering how to tackle the following scenario.
The diagram is
Customer ---->>> Firewall --->> L2L VPN --->> Me --->> MPLS ---> Server
The server is accessible by other tunnels in place but there is no NAT needed. For the tunnel we are talking about it is
The Customer connects the following way
Source: 198.1.1.1
Destination: 192.168.1.1
It gets to the outside ASA interface which should translate the packets to:
Source: 10.110.110.1
Destination: 10.120.110.1
On the way back, 10.120.110.1 should be translated to 192.168.1.1 only when going to 198.1.1.1
I did the following configuration which I am not able to test but tomorrow during the migration
object network obj-198.1.1.1
host 198.1.1.1
object network obj-198.1.1.1
nat (outside,inside) dynamic 10.110.110.1
For the inside to outside NAT depending on the destination:
object network Real-IP
host 10.120.110.1
object-group network PE-VPN-src
network-object host 198.1.1.1
object network Destination-NAT
host 192.168.1.1
nat (inside,outside) source static Real-IP Destination-NAT destination static PE-VPN-src PE-VPN-src
Question is if I should create also the following or not for the outside to inside flow NAT? Or the NAT is done from the inside to outside estatement even if the traffic is always initiated from outside interface?
object network obj-192.168.1.1
host 192.168.1.1
object network obj-192.168.1.1
nat (outside,inside) dynamic 10.120.110.1

Let's use a spare ip address in the same subnet as the ASA inside interface for the NAT (assuming that 10.10.10.251 is free (pls kindly double check and use a free IP Address accordingly):
object network obj-10.10.10.243
host 10.10.10.243
object network obj-77.x.x.24
host 77.x.x.24
object network obj-10.10.10.251
host 10.10.10.251
object network obj-pcA
host 86.x.x.253
nat (inside,outside) source static obj-10.10.10.243 obj-77.x.x.24 destination static obj-10.10.10.251 obj-86.x.x.253
Hope that helps.

Problem with WRT54G and DSL NAT router

I have a WRT54G connected to a Westell DSL NAT router. I would like to be able to allow incoming connections to my FreeBSD server.
The Westell router allows me to set IP Passthrough (they call it "Single Static IP"). This gives the WRT54G the outside IP address given to the DSL router. I can then set up the WRT54G for DDNS and port forwarding to forward specific ports I want to my server.
This works, for about 2-3 days. Then, I start to randomly lose outside connectivity. Web pages start coming up with missing elements, or taking a long time to load. This will eventually lead to total loss of outgoing communication.
Normally, I would blame this on the Westell NAT router, but as I'm losing connectivity to the internet, I'm also losing connectivity to the WRT54G. It will try to load configuration pages but will be slow with missing elements, etc.
All communications between computers on my inside network continue to function properly, it's just connectivity to the WRT54G and the internet that seem to start to fail.
Does anyone have any idea what is going on? I just upgraded the firmware on the WRT54G from 1.01.1 to 1.02.0, but I don't imagine this will help.
Thanks,
David Chamberlain
