FWSM firewall context Access-List entry Limitation

We have recently experienced an error on one of the firewall settings that it has reached the maximum access list entry. Anyone know what is the limit of the ACL entry by context or where can I find the documentaton for her. No work around to this issue? Thanks in advance.

Hello

This value changes depending on which version of the FWSM code you run - and Cisco gets not specific on how the FWSM calculates entered ACE to determine the number of entries you have on your own.

If you run the command (syntax may be different in 3.x code):

See the np 3 acl County property

You get a result that looks like this:

-CLS rule current account-

CLS filter rule Count: 0

CLS rule Fixup count: 11

CLS is Ctl rule Count: 0

CLS AAA rule count: 2187

CLS is given rule Count: 0

CLS Console rule count: 7

Political CLS NAT rule Count: 0

County of CLS ACL rule: 3491

Add CLS uncommitted ACL: 0

CLS ACL Del uncommitted: 0

-CLS rule MAX - account

CLS filter MAX: 3584

CLS Fixup MAX: 32

CLS is Ctl rule MAX: 716

CLS is given rule MAX: 716

AAA CLS MAX rule: 5017

CLS Console rule MAX: 2150

Political CLS NAT rule MAX: 3584

CLS ACL rule MAX: 56627

The counts are your real numbers, MAX is the maximum you can have. AAA rules are numbered for how As you can have applied altogether with your orders of "aaa game. For your question, it seems that you should check your 'CLS ACL rule Count' and 'CLS ACL rule MAX' and make sure you get not close to that number. If you are - try to limit the number of host entries (use the networks) where possible and try to use ranges of ports instead of individual ports in your access list statements.

I'll try to find the syntax 7.x and post here later.

  • PIX Firewall 525 access list problem

    Hello.

    I have the following problem. After insertion of an access list, despite seeing the packages associated with the list, they do not "match", that is, it is as if the list wasn't doing his job.

    Who can be the cause of this behavior?

    PIX 525 model

    IOS 6.3 (4)

    Thank you.

    Marulanda Ramiro Z.

    Are all of syslogs sent properly to the remote host? If so, I would say that the udp connection is never closed by the PIX. Let's say that the connection never hit the timeout in the pix config. If the connection remains open and doesnot increments the hit count for your access list. I have a PIX that makes the same behavior.

    The increase in the number of accesses is also based on the connection and not on each packet passing through the PIX.

    You can use a debug command to see the packets through the PIX.

  • bug in iOS? startup-config + command access-list + an invalid entry detected

    I posted this yesterday in the newsgroup usenet comp.dcom.sys.cisco and received no nibbles. If I did something incredibly stupid, please do not hesitate to advise.

    I'm looking to use a host named in a more extended access list. The

    123.123.123.123 IP name-server 123.123.123.124

    ! the following line appears at the bottom of the script

    120 allow host passports - 01.mx.aol.com one ip access-list

    When I reboot the router, I saw the following message:

    Translation of "passports - 01.mx.aol.com"... the domain server (255.255.255.255)

    120 allow host passports - 01.mx.aol.com one ip access-list

    It seems as if the entrance to the server name of the router is not processed

    prior to the access list. I can not even check with

    router02 access lists 120 #sh

    makes the access list entry * not * exist.

    But when I manually type the entry in the router I see the

    Extend the 120 IP access list

    allow the host ip 64.12.137.89 one

    I have to do something incredibly stupid. If necessary I can post the whole startup-config, although it is quite long. (I don't know if the same label/common sense if apply here as apply to newsgroups usenet. i.e. post us actual ip addresses in our configs or must they be edited?)

    Any help is very appreciated.

    Currently IOS does not use DNS - names in the ACL for the saved configuration / running.

    When you type in a list of access with a domain name we he looks up and replaces it with the IP address. I remember seeing a bug No. recently request this feature but I don't remember one bug id # now.

  • Cisco ISE and WLC Access-List Design/scalability

    Hello

    I have a scenario that wireless clients are authenticated by the ISE and different ACL is applied depending on the rules in the ISE. The problem I have seen is due to the limitation on the Cisco WLC that limit only 64 input access list. As the installer has only a few IVR/interfaces and several different access lists are applied to the same base on user groups interface; I was wondering if there may be an evolutionary design / approach according to which the access list entries can evolve next to create a vlan for each group of users and apply the access list on the interface of layer 3 instead? I illustrated the configuration below for reference:

    Group of users 1 - apply ACL 1 - on Vlan 1

    User 2 group - apply ACL 2 - on the Vlan 1

    3 user group - apply ACL 3 - on the Vlan 1

    The problem appears only for wireless users, he does not see on wired users as the ACLs can be applied successfully without restriction as to the switches.

    Any suggestion is appreciated.

    Thank you.

    In fact, you have limitations on the side of the switch as well. Long ACL can deplete resources AAGR of the switch. Take a look at this link:

    http://www.Cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/switches/Catalyst-3750-series-switches/68461-high-CPU-utilization-cat3750.html

    The new WLCs based on IOS XE and not the old OS Wireless/Aironet will provide the best experience in these matters.

    Overall, I see three ways to overcome your current number:

    1. reduce the ACL by making them less specific

    2 use L3 interfaces on a switch L3 or FW and the ACL is applied to them

    3. use the SGT/SGA

    I hope this helps!

  • RVS4000 IP access lists

    Hi all

    I'm trying to block the access of 1 VLAN to another without disable InterVLAN routing.

    In my access list entry, I have the following:

    Deny all protocols, Source LAN interface. Source 192.168.8.0/24 network address (VLAN I want to block); Destination network address of 192.168.1.0.

    It seems like it should work but hosts the 192.168.8.0 network allows access to the 192.168.1.0 network. If I disable InterVLAN routing it blocks traffic between VLANs, as you would expect. In the future I intend to have another VIRTUAL local network that I do not want the route between the VLANS.

    Any help would be appreciated,

    Thank you!

    Brian

    IP based ACL of RVS4000 is designed to limit traffic between LAN and WAN (two-way), but not traffic inter - VLAN. So the scenario is unfortunately not supported.

  • PIX 535 and access lists

    Hello

    We have a Cisco PIX 535. By default, traffic on one more secure interface with a lower security level is allowed, what is?

    OK, I have a doubt, I had to define an access list entry to allow a telnet connection between inside and outside. There is no rule against that traffic, but without this rule the telnet connection cannot be established.

    And my question is: why? It is not supposed to be allowed by default?

    Thanks in advance.

    Higher default-> bottom is allowed... However, once you add instructions permit, it is implicitly deny all at the end. So, if you allow ftp and ssl web... so by default, any other traffic is denied and you need to be precise with your permit.

  • Access-list command not supported in the 2.2 FWSM (1)

    Hi Netpros

    I am facing a strange problem with one of my FWSM installed in my spare box 7609.

    I have a FWSM installed in live production network, in which the caught watch access list supported and I am able to set up their place, but in the alternative box, I am unable to do so when I have? to get the command supported, it doesn't either up the access-list command.

    The two boxes run upward with 2.2 (1) and on different 7609 boxes.

    Basically, I want to do the CLI or the tested features up to in my box of spare before you go and implement the same on the live production network.

    I have attached both the version of the show, but also the supporting documents.

    Pls do not help to find where I m lack somehting here :-(.

    regds

    Your spare module is configured in mode 'multiple context', where you can create up to 100 logical firewall within one FWSM. In this mode, when you the meeting into the FWSM, you enter in what we call the context of the system in which all you can do is set the other contexts. In the context of the system there is no notion of the lists of access or something like that, and that's why you can't see these commands you.

    You want to deliver the FWSM in unique context mode by running the command:

    simple mode

    Reboot and then when he comes back to the top you'll be good to go.

  • Access list ID # on a PIX firewall

    Is anyone know what of the identifier access list on a pix firewall?

    Standard IOS = 1-99

    Extended IOS is 100-199.

    SW = PIX?

    There is no "limit" by Word to say in the Pix. These limits are in IOS because they define what 'type' of acl, it's IE APPLETALK, IPX, IP etc etc. Pix IP is therefore not necessary for this type of identification.

  • card crypto access lists / problem if more than one entry?

    Access list for IPSec enabled traffic.

    I've been recently setting up a VPN between two sites and I came across the following problem:

    I wanted to install a VPN that only 2 posts from site A to site B, a class C network

    So I created a list of access as follows:

    access-list 101 permit IP 192.168.0.1 host 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255

    access-list 101 permit IP 192.168.0.2 host 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255

    When I applied the access list above to map (match address 101) encryption, I quickly realized that only the first host (192.168.0.1) was successfully encrypted beeing while the other could not. I've been geeting on ipsec debugging errors saying that traffic to 192.168.0.2 denyed by the access list.

    When I changed the access list above with the following

    access-list 101 permit IP 192.168.0.1 0.0.0.255 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255

    two items of work could successfully encrypted through IPSec tunnel.

    To look further into it, I realized that only the first entry of the IPsec access list has been really tested for the corresponding traffic!

    Is this a normal behavior or a known Bug? No work around for this problem?

    Kind regards.

    If you have ipsec-manual crypto map in crypto ACL, you can specify that an ACE. Check 12.2 docs:

    Access lists for labelled as ipsec-manual crypto map entries are limited to a single permit entry and the following entries are ignored. In other words, the security associations established by this particular entry card crypto are only for a single data stream. To be able to support several manually created security for different types of traffic associations, define multiple crypto access lists and then apply each a separate entrance card crypto ipsec-manual. Each access list should include a statement to define which traffic to protect.

  • Critical auth and limited access-list

    I play just with ISE 1.1.4 and auth critical, but I have a pretty locked down from the default access on ports list. Is it possible to replace a list of very restrictive access by default in the event of critical auth?

    It seems as if you are relieant on DACLs to provide access for devices (closed or similar mode) auth criticism is not a viable option?

    Or have I misunderstood, and perhaps "action dead event server authentication allows voice" more I waited.

    I guess I'm looking for something like "event action dead access-list less-restrictiveACL server authentication."

    Thank you

    Why not flip it on its head and have your less-restrictive-ACL default and impose more restrictive things through dACL?

  • Routing VPN access list

    Hello

    I have a PIX 525 to my main site and a 1721 router at a remote location. I used the PDM and the SDM to configure site-to-site IPSec VPN connection. In my private network, I use 10.1.0.0/16 for the main site and 10.x.0.0/16 (where x = 2-47) to remote sites.

    The remote site with the VPN connection uses 10.19.0.0/16. When I originally created this VPN, I configured the traffic to flow from the remote site to 10.1.0.0/16 only. This means that the remote site cannot speak to any other remote sites, just the main site.

    I need to modify the access list to solve this problem. The relevant part of the remote site access list is now:

    access-list 103 allow ip 10.1.0.0 0.0.255.255 10.19.0.0 0.0.255.255

    access-list 103 deny ip 10.19.0.0 0.0.255.255 everything

    Can I change the subnet mask in the first line and put the second line first?

    access-list 103 deny ip 10.19.0.0 0.0.255.255 everything

    access-list 103 allow ip 10.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 10.19.0.0 0.0.255.255

    Or should I let the deny at the end statement, and add a line for each of the other remote sites:

    access-list 103 allow ip 10.1.0.0 0.0.255.255 10.19.0.0 0.0.255.255

    access-list 103 allow ip 10.2.0.0 0.0.255.255 10.19.0.0 0.0.255.255

    access-list 103 allow ip 10.3.0.0 0.0.255.255 10.19.0.0 0.0.255.255

    access-list 103 allow ip 10.4.0.0 0.0.255.255 10.19.0.0 0.0.255.255

    ... (others)

    access-list 103 deny ip 10.19.0.0 0.0.255.255 everything

    Thank you.

    Help the additional configuration information that you have posted. There are still a few things which I hope could be clarified. It seems that you have 46 remote sites and only is connected via a VPN. How have the other connectivity? It is all over the links within your private network? Is there than any NAT involved in these other connections?

    In my previous answer, I assumed that there will be multiple VPN connections, revealing your additional information is not the case. So my comment about limitations in PIX for talk of talks is true but not applicable to your situation.

    Other remote sites are also coming via the VPN? If yes access list 100 which the 1721 uses to identify the IPSec traffic (and that was not in your posted material) will probably have to be changed.

    According to access list 103 is concerned, I guess that the deny ip 10.19.0.0 0.0.255.255 is an anti-spoofing measure? If so, I would probably advocate put it as the first entry in the access list. What about if you want to use ip 10.0.0.0 allow 0.255.255.255 10.19.0.0 0.0.255.255 or a series of individual licenses, according to me, a point to consider is that allowed 10.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 will allow any space of 10 addresses. It seems that you use 1 to 47. What happens if something came through 10.122.x.x? I suggest a compromise approach. You can use this:

    IP 10.0.0.0 allow 0.31.255.255 10.19.0.0 0.0.255.255

    ip licensing 10.32.0.0 0.15.255.255 10.19.0.0 0.0.255.255

    This would allow 1 to 47 but not others.

  • allow icmpv6 in ipv4-access list in the tunnel

    Hello

    I have a little problem with an access list ipv4 blocking my ipv6 tunnel.

    My tunnel works and is as follows:

    interface Tunnel0

    no ip address

    IPv6 address

    enable IPv6

    source of tunnel

    ipv6ip tunnel mode

    tunnel destination

    So when I apply the below, access list to the WAN interface on the sense IN, IPV6 stops working (everything works on IPV4 when the access list is applied). I mean, I cannot ping ipv6.google.com or ipv6.google.coms IP. I can still ping the IP ipv6 remote tunnel ().

    Access list that I apply is the following:

    allow tcp any a Workbench

    allowed UDP any eq field all

    allowed any EQ 67 udp no matter what eq 68

    allowed UDP any eq 123 everything

    allowed UDP any eq 3740 everything

    allowed UDP any eq 41 everything

    allowed UDP any eq 5072 everything

    allow icmp a whole

    deny ip any any newspaper

    Here are the requirements to the supplier of tunnel, and one of the entries is ICMPv6. Is it possible to allow icmp v6 on a Cisco access list?

    TCP 3874 TIC.sixxs.net IPv4 ICT (Information Tunnel & Control Protocol) Used to retrieve the information of tunnel (for instance AICCU) Uses the TCP protocol and should work without problems
    UDP 3740 PoP IPv4 Heartbeat Protocol Used for signalling where is the endpoint current IPv4 of the tunnel and he's alive the user only to pop out
    Protocol 41 PoP IPv4 IPv6 over IPv4 (6 in 4 tunnel) Used for tunneling IPv6 over IPv4 (static tunnels + heartbeat) We have to appoint the internal host as the DMZ host that leaves usually passes the NAT
    UDP 5072 PoP IPv4 AYIYA (anything in anything) Used for tunneling IPv6 over IPv4 (AYIYA tunnels) Must cross most NAT and even firewalls without any problem
    ICMPv6 echo response. Tunnel endpoints IPv6 Internet Control Message Protocol for IPv6 Used to test if a tunnel is alive in scathing tunnel endpoint (tunnel: 2) on the side PoP of the tunnel (tunnel: 1) on the tunnel No, because it is happening inside the tunnel

    I missed something?

    sidequestion: I added the "deny ip any any newspaper" in the access list, but it adds no registration entry in the log (show log). I'm sure it hits because when I run "display lists access": 110 deny ip any any newspaper (2210 matches).

    Hope someone can help me.

    Hello

    In the ACL above you are atleast specifying source and destination UDP and 41 SOURCE ports

    If you specify IPv6 over an IPv4 ACL I guess that the format would be to "allow 41 a whole" for example.

    Although I have barely touched IPv6 myself yet. Wouldn't it be possible to configure ACL Ipv4 and IPv6 ACL and attach them to the same interface?

    But looking at my own router it does not support these commands so that other devices to make. Maybe something related model/software I guess.
