Solved: PAgP Support on PIX/ASA

zeu7 · ‎08-07-2008

Hello,

can anybody tell me if PAgP is supported on PIX/ASA firewalls and if its possible to use EtherChannelling on firewall ports.

Also, what are the limitations of this is at all possible.

Thanks, Mark

no sorry this is not possible. the pix/asa does not support etherchannel via pagp or lacp.

so why we have ACTIVE/ACTIVE, for such load sharing ;)

As joe pointed out, etherchannel is not support on the ASA/PIX. However starting with 8.x you can configure 'Redundant Interface' pairs in Active/Standby fashion similar to how you would on a Netscreen. Have a look:
