RE: FWSM Global Service Policy change tcp connection timeout

Hi,

 

Thanks for the reply, however;

 

This is the default policy;

 

class-map inspection_default

 

 match default-inspection-traffic

 

policy-map global_policy

 

 class inspection_default

 

  inspect dns maximum-length 512

 

  inspect ftp

 

  inspect h323 h225

 

  inspect h323 ras

 

  inspect rsh

 

  inspect smtp

 

  inspect sqlnet

 

  inspect skinny

 

  inspect sunrpc

 

  inspect xdmcp

 

  inspect sip

 

  inspect netbios

 

  inspect tftp

 

service-policy global_policy global

 

The default tcp connection idle timeout applies to this policy-map, so if I
want to have a specific flow with idle timeout 0, then would I just create a
new class-map, match the flow with acl, and specify the connection settings?

 

I think I would also need to remove the default class, add the new one in,
then add the default back in again, so that the new one is hit first.

 

Access-list 101 per tcp host x.x.x.x host y.y.y.y eq z

Class-map class1

Match access-gr 101

 

policy-map global_policy

no class inspection_default

class-map class1

set connection timeout 0
class inspection_default
 
What do think?
 
I am not able to test this out, and will have a tight window when I go to
make the change, hence the reason im trying to clarify!!
 
Thanks
 
LR

I've never seen you have to use class default for the ASA or anything that

run PIXOS.

For example, if I want to allow BGP MD5 authentication for 2 peers, then I

would just create an ACL permit tcp host host eq bgp, match it and allow tcp

option 19 and disable the random-sequence-number. I don't need to do

anything else for the rest of the the bgp peer that pass through the ASA and

not using MD5 authentication.

You are going to apply the service-policy as global, you don't need to do

anything else.

Subject: FWSM Global Service Policy change tcp connection timeout for 1

specific flow

 

Hi,

 

 

 

I have an issue with an old database server that creates tcp connections via

a FWSM, and expects these sessions to never idle out, since the FWSM has a

default timeout of 60 mins for tcp we are having some issues with

connectivity. I want to config a class-map to match this specifc flow and

set the tcp connection timeout to 0.

 

 

 

Can anyone advise how to ensure that the other traffic will use the FWSM

default settings? Would I just config the class-default and set the

connections in there? Or will they automatically pick them up?

 

 

 

I will be applying this service-policy as global and not to a specific

interface.

 

 

 

I've checked on CCO but the config guide doesn't mention this, and I just

need some clarification.

 

 

 

Thanks very much,

 

 

 

LR
