CiscoASAfirewallActive/Standbyfailover

In this article, I will briefly explain the active/standby failover configuration on the cisco ASA. The lab is done in GNS3.

  1. Physical Topology:
    Cisco ASA firewall Active/Standby failover

  2. configuration:
    ciscoasa/act/pri(config)# sh run failover
    failover
    failover lan unit primary
    failover lan interface Failover_Stateless GigabitEthernet0/2
    failover link Failover_Stateful GigabitEthernet0/1
    failover interface ip Failover_Stateless 169.254.0.15 255.255.255.0 standby 169.254.0.16
    failover interface ip Failover_Stateful 169.254.1.15 255.255.255.0 standby 169.254.1.16

  3. pitfall:
    The failover ASA pair should have identical hardware platform, software and license to achieve working failover.
    The failover configuration order is important. It could blank your active configuration if the order is not correct.
    Also, whenever there is an configuration update, it should be done on the primary / active unit, so the change could be synched to the standby.
    Do this:
    config # prompt hostname state priority
  4. the failover could be stateless and stateful, the above configuration configured G0/1 as stateful failover interface.

  5. The "show failover" command will provide the current failover state. If you need to have any interface monitored, do below and add a standby ip address for the interface:
    config # monitor-interface inside | outside | etc.

    ciscoasa/act/pri(config)# sh monitor-interface
    This host: Primary - Active
    Interface management (172.16.212.96): Normal (Waiting)
    Interface inside (10.1.1.1): Normal (Monitored)
    Interface outside (150.1.115.1): Normal (Monitored)
    Other host: Secondary - Standby Ready
    Interface management (0.0.0.0): Normal (Waiting)
    Interface inside (10.1.1.2): Normal (Monitored)
    Interface outside (150.1.115.2): Normal (Monitored)

  6. when doing the test, you could enter "failover active" on the secondary ASA, and there will be no interruption for the telnet tcp connection that already exists. As the connection is on both ASA.
