Guidelines and Limitations

This section includes the guidelines and limitations for this feature.

Context Mode Guidelines

Supported in single and multiple context modes.

Firewall Mode Guidelines

Supported in routed and transparent firewall modes.

Failover Guidelines

Does not support sessions in Stateful Failover. The CSC SSM does not maintain connection information,
and therefore cannot provide the failover unit with the required information. The connections that a CSC
SSM is scanning are dropped when the ASA in which the CSC SSM is installed fails. When the standby
ASA becomes active, it forwards the scanned traffic to the CSC SSM and the connections are reset.

IPv6 Guidelines

Does not support IPv6.

Model Guidelines

Supported on the ASA 5510, ASA 5520, and ASA 5540 only.

Additional Guidelines

You cannot change the software type installed on the module; if you purchase a CSC module, you cannot
later install IPS software on it.
