Traffic Redirection tab not visible in PRSM single device mode

[tato386]

I am using a 5515-X in single device mode.  Software is  version 9.2.1.2-69.

I noticed a couple things that I am not sure are a problem or not.  When I go to the configuration overview tab PRSM shows mode of the ASA CX as "unknown".  Also the User Guide says I should see a "traffic redirection" tab under configuration policies/settings but I don't see that.

I guess I can configure traffic redirection with ASDM but just wondering if this is normal, or cosmetic bug or something else?

Thanks,

Diego

If you're running single device mode (on-box PRSM) you cannot manage the ASA configuration like you can with the off-box PRSM. Note this section of the user guide which states:

"Traffic Redirection—(ASA, Multiple Device mode only.) Configure traffic redirection from the ASA to its CX module."

Yes, seems like that is exactly the case for the "traffic redirection" tab.  what about the "unknown" for the mode in the overview screen?  Cosmetic or sign of something wrong?

Thanks,

I'd say it's cosmetic.

I don't have an multiple device mode PRSM to compare but the single device mode one I'm looking at also shows "unknown".

I believe in multiple device mode this would indicate either "managed" or "monitor only".
