Cisco ASA 5500 Series Configuration Guide using the CLI

Chapter 63 Configuring Active/Active Failover

Configuring Active/Active Failover

hostname/ctx(config)# interface phy_if

hostname/ctx(config-if)# asr-group num

Valid values for num range from 1 to 32. You need to enter the command for each interface that
participates in the asymmetric routing group. You can view the number of ASR packets transmitted,
received, or dropped by an interface using the show interface detail command. You can have more than
one ASR group configured on the ASA, but only one per interface. Only members of the same ASR
group are checked for session information.

Example

Figure 63-1

shows an example of using the asr-group command for asymmetric routing support.
