Port channel issue in ASA

We have two Cisco ASA 55XX Firewalls and both are in HA (Active/Standy). Two ports from each Firewall is connecting two ports of Nexus 5K Switch and running port channel between Firewall & Nexus Switch and port-channel is UP. And Switches having back to back connection with allowed all VLAN trunk port.
FW01 ----------------- SW01 (Two ports with Port channel)
FW02 ----------------- SW02 (Two ports with Port channel)
I have VLAN 10 with IP Subnet 10.10.10.0/28
SW01 : 10.10.10.2
SW02 : 10.10.10.3
HSRP IP : 10.10.10.1
FWs :  10.10.10.4 & 10.10.10.5
Firewall Default Gateway : 10.10.10.1
Problem : I am not able Ping Firewall IPs from Nexus Switches. When I checked ARP table in Nexus Switch; I have observed that Firealls two IPs having same MAC address; when I checked that MAC address in the Firewall; that MAC address is Port channel interface MAC address.
This is issue (two IPs learing same MAC address) from ASA.
How to fix this issue ?
Thanks

Hi,
What version of IOS are you running on the ASAs?
see table-12-3 in this link:
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/security/asa/asa84/configuration/guide/asa_84_cli_config/interface_start.html
Also, since the 4500x are in VSS mode, you need to bundle one link from each switch and use LACP.

  • Port Channel Issue on Cisco 2960s-24ts

    Hi All
    Last week at a customer site we installed a 2nd 2960s 24 port switch to form a stack using flexstack cables, and the switch stack is working as expected as I can see a master switch and 2nd switch as a member.
    For redundancy / resilience we decided to use port 24 on each switch over copper for trunk uplinks to our core switch. The issue that we're having is I can't ping the switch management address. I can however see the address in the arp table and the edge switch is visible when I run show cdp nei. As a work around I've shutdown one of the ports to the downlink from core to edge in order to ping the management address of the switch which is in vlan 1. I'd like to get the port-channel working on both sides for resilience.
    ANY HELP IS APPRECIATED...
    Core switch is a WS-C3750G-24TS-1U running software version  C3750 Boot Loader (C3750-HBOOT-M) Version 12.2(25r)SEE4, C3750 Software (C3750-IPBASE-M)
    Edge switch is a WS-C2960S-24TS-L running software version C2960S Boot Loader (C2960S-HBOOT-M) Version 12.2(53r)SE,C2960S Software (C2960S-UNIVERSALK9-M)
    The config on the edge switch which goes to the core is :
    interface GigabitEthernet1/0/24
     description *****
     switchport mode trunk
     channel-group 6 mode on
    end
    interface GigabitEthernet2/0/24
     description *****
     switchport mode trunk
     channel-group 6 mode on
    end
    interface Port-channel6
     description ******
     switchport mode trunk
    end
    The config on the downlink ports from the core to the edge:
    interface GigabitEthernet1/0/20
     description Edge
     switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
     switchport mode trunk
     channel-group 20 mode on
    end
    interface GigabitEthernet2/0/20
     description Edge
     switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
     switchport mode trunk
     shutdown
     channel-group 20 mode on
    end
    interface Port-channel20
     description Edge
     switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
     switchport mode trunk
    end

    when using channel-group # on mode you must make sure the ports are on same duplex and speed setting
    what happens when you use active mode?

  • Port-channel issue over Ciena DWDM

    Hi all, 
    I'm currently working on an issue encountered on a DC. 
    We currently use 2 3750 stacks (1 in each DC), connected with a Po. 
    We use dark fiber between each DC, so we have a Ciena DWDM transponder on each side. 
    The problem is that, if we have an issue on the inter-DC fiber, the Ciena interface on the 3750 side is still up. Using LACP on the Po, the issue can be detected in about 3 X 30 sec = 90 sec. 
    Before the issue is detected by LACP, the impacted port-channel interface is still used by the Po, which can cause big issues. 
    I thought use an EEM applet in order to monitor the CDP neighbor on each interface, and exclude the interface from the Po till the CDP neighbor is down, but the CDP timers are even bigger (180 sec hold-time). 
    Is there any way to address this problem, other than UDLD ? 
    In our others DC, we have two NX7K on each side, and we are able to use LACP with fast-rate, but this is not available on 3750... 
    Thank you very much ! 

    the best way to use pair of transponders on each side in protection group.

  • Port-Channel Issue: SP-5-CANNOT_BUNDLE_LACP

    I'm having an issue with the port-channel coming up. Right now it's "down down". I'm not really sure why. All other port-channels on the 6500's in VSS work fine. This one seems to be giving me an issue though.
    -Both interfaces that are using this port-channel are "up up".
    -I've done "shut's, no shut's" on all interfaces involved.

    HI Mark,
    1. Can you please check your ethernet card ...where this port channel connected..on the server.
        may be there are 2 different card.

  • Port-channel issue with FI-N7k using rate-mode share

    Hi Dears,
    I'm trying to using port-channel between Fabric Interconnect (FI) and N7K. in N7K use rate-mode share and LACP but the port-channel in N7K was suspended.
    I was trying :
    1. I using non dedicated port in Nexus 7010.
          - rate-mode share
          - channel-group 1 mode active
          - switchport mode trunk
    when i using this option, the port-channel in Nexus 7010 was suspended
    2. I using non dedicated port in Nexus 7010
         - rate-mode share
         - channel group 1 mode on
         - switchport mode trunk
    when i using this option, the port-channel in Nexus 7010 was came up, but in Fabric interconnect was failed.
    3. I using dedicated port in Nexus 7010
         - rate-mode share
         - channel group 1 mode active
         - switchport mode trunk
    when i using this option, the port-channel in Nexus 7010 was suspended
    4. I using dedicated port in Nexus 7010
         - rate-mode dedicated
         - channel group 1 mode active
         - switchport mode trunk
    when i using this option, the port-channel in Nexus 7010 was came up and running well.
    is any other way to configure port-channel in N7K with rate-mode share and LACP ?
    or it's some of limitation in port-channel when using rate-mode share at N7K ?
    nb: fabric interconnect only support LACP and cannot be configurable.

  • Port-channel issues

    We installed a CISCO 6509e with 2 Sup 720 blades in one building that is about 600m from our corporate HQs.  We have a CISC 4507 with 2 Sup 6-E with 10G.  We have them connected with fiber using 10g gbic LMR optics in the 10g ports of the sup blades.  The link comes up.  We moved it to a trunk and set up port channeling.  The link will come up as a trunk but the port channel is not coming up.  We are at a bit of a loss, we have several closets through the 2 buildings and we utilize port channeling on all of our switches.  Below are the interfaces for the 2 interfaces and port channels, we had hoped to add more interfaces to this port channel but we are on hold until we can determine the reason for the port channel not coming up.

  • Disappointed: ASA 8.4 Redundant using Port-channels

    So I finally got all our ASAs upgrade to version 8.4 and was all sorts of excited to configure port-channels to our 6500 + SUP7203B switches.  I was severally disappointed to discover that I cannot configure two port-channels and have them be members of a redundant interface pair.  It would seem like a logical topology.
    Port-channel1 = Gig0/0 & Gig0/1
    Port-channel2 = Gig0/2 & Gig0/3
    Redundant1 = Port-channel1 & Port-channel2
    Port-channel1 would connect to the primary 6500
    Port-channel2 would connect to the backup 6500
    What would it take to make this work?  Am I going to have to wait for 8.5?  Will we finally get BGP then too? (Had to get that in there)

    EtherChannel Guidelines
    •You can configure up to 48 EtherChannels.
    •Each channel group can have eight active interfaces. Note that you can assign up to 16 interfaces to a channel group. While only eight interfaces can be active, the remaining interfaces can act as standby links in case of interface failure.
    •All interfaces in the channel group must be the same type and speed. The first interface added to the channel group determines the correct type and speed.
    •The device to which you connect the ASA 5500 EtherChannel must also support 802.3ad EtherChannels; for example, you can connect to the Catalyst 6500 switch.
    •All ASA configuration refers to the logical EtherChannel interface instead of the member physical interfaces.
    •You cannot use a redundant interface as part of an EtherChannel, nor can you use an EtherChannel as part of a redundant interface. You cannot use the same physical interfaces in a redundant interface and an EtherChannel interface. You can, however, configure both types on the ASA if they do not use the same physical interfaces.

    Hello Yaplej,
    Agree with you but unfortunetly this is not supported yet,
    We migh need to wait some time before this desing can be accomplish,

  • ASA 5585 port-channels

    I want to create a port-channel with 2 10Gbs interfaces on 2 ASA 5585 firewalls, and set them up in a failover pair.
    In order to do this, do I simply put two 10Gbs interfaces into a channel and then configure the IP addressing and failover address on the logical port-channel interface? (aka interface po1).
    Any limitations with this?

    Yes, that is exactly what you do..
    Create portchannel on switch and ASA
    Trunk the vlan on switch side
    Create logical interfaces on ASA

    So I have the following questions about verion 9:
    1. Can I still use port-channels on a sigle ASA?
    2. Should I replace port-channel by lacp command on a sigle ASA?
    3. Does lacp command can be used only on clusters ?
    Att.,
    Rosa

    The following is documented in the config guide for both 8.4 and 9.0:
    •You cannot use interfaces on the 4GE SSM, including the integrated 4GE SSM in slot 1 on the ASA 5550, as part of an EtherChannel. 
    So, even with 8.4 it was probably never meant to work.

  • 7200/7301 MTU issue on Port-Channel

    Hi guys,
    I have an issue with MTU on port-channel :
    When I create a port-channel interface, I can set MTU to 1530 max
    When I configure an interface in this port-channel, I can set port-channel MTU to 9216 max.
    But when I reload, "mtu 9216" command is rejected and port-channel MTU is set to 1500 :
     mtu 9216
            ^
    % Invalid input detected at '^' marker.
    %Interface MTU set to channel-group MTU 1500.

  • ASA EIGRP Port Channel Bug?

    Hi All
    I have EIGRP configured on an ASA5512-X code version 9.1(4). When I do a "show eigrp interfaces" the Port Channel linking to the adjacent router is not listed. It is not a passive interface (even did a "no passive-interface outside" to double check). Other interfaces are listed. Debugging EIGRP shows no hellos arriving on that interface either, even though a debug on the adjacent router confirms they are being sent. Am I missing something or is this a bug?
    Thanks for looking!
    - James

    Hello,
    It does... Thanks for the explanation
    Now if you are behind the inside interface you should be able to ping it.
    Can you share the show run icmp
    Also do the following on the ASA
    cap capin interface inside match icmp any host 172.17.120.254
    cap asp type asp-drop all circular-buffer
    Then try to ping the ASA inside interface and provide me:
    show cap capin
    show cap asp | include 172.17.120.254
