Hi Adam, So, the symptoms are high latency from internal network to Inside of ASA's interface? And during this problem, the switch appears to be re-establishing the OSPF neighbor? It wasn't clear to me if you were also seeing packet loss or not. A suggestion to narrow down some things: If the 29

The ASA can be brought to its knees by small packets with not a very large PPS... its the ring buffer system it uses. Which brings to mind the current flavour du jour of ddos, that of NTP amplification. I'd do a span of your 2950G links to eg a Linux box with tcpdump and get a pretty picture of

Hi, We are having a problem with high latency and OSPF drops on an ASA5520. The portion of our network in question is connected as follows: Internal Network---3750---2950G---ASA5520---2950G---2921---External World The two 2950G's shown above are actually the same device; we are us
