Hi everyone,

When i ssh to ASA and ran the command

show asp table socket i see below

show asp table socket

Protocol Socket    Local Address               Foreign Address         State
SSL       000035c4 192.168.100.3:443            0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN
TCP       00005d5c 192.168.100.3:22             0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN
TCP       00006f5c 192.168.101.3:22             0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN
TCP       00009314 192.168.2.3:22               0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN
TCP       2f9ea0f4 192.168.101.3:22             192.16.3.5:55746        ESTAB

Where under foreign address i can see my pc address 192.168.3.5.

Need to know why other foreign address are showed as 0.0.0.0*??

will by default ASA will always show 4 foreign address as 0.0.0.0*?

Regards

Mahesh

Hi,

It seems that you are opening port 443 and 22 on your ASA. This can be checked by using below commands:

- show run http

- show run ssh

I don't think by default it will show any open port. This is because by default the behaviour on ASA is that all ports are close and you have to open port that you want to open/use. Which on router, it's the opposite, by default all ports are open.

HTH,
