6748s here. The customer was considering VSS but it didn't/doesn't support FWSM and ACE. So, he's stuck for a bit.

Not to hijack this thread, but what modules are you using for server
connectivity in your 6513?  We deployed some 6513s as SF switches long
ago (bad decision), and are now swapping them out with the 6509-E
chassis due to the need for additional performance (6748s in all
slots).

Just upgraded our FWSM to version 3.1.11 after 3 random crashes in a
month. Now we are thinking about buying a second FWSM to do failover in
order to limit downtime and facilitate upgrades : most of our servers
are connected to the 6513 carrying this FWSM.

We use the 2 standard virtual contexts of the FWSM, both in transparent
mode, 8 bridged vlans on one, 2 bridged vlans on the second.



In the release notes of 3.1.11 I however read under Open Caveats

"CSCm73157 : Failover is not working in transparent mode..."



Anyone has experience with FWSM failover in transparent mode ? Does this
really doesn't work ?

Does it work under 3.2 or 4.0 ?



Any info would be appreciated before we invest more than 15K Euros...
