You only have one physical outside interface and the 5505 does not support security contexts. If there was a switch upstream from you, you could trunk multiple vlans to it, these vlans could contain the network traffic for your 2 ISPs, but either way. you are going to need another device either a router or a switch upstream.<br />

jfredrick, I guess by creating a second vlan you mean trunk multiple vlans to the interface? I think we are saying the same thing here.<br />

Well, not trunking, just using a second VLAN for a second/different interface on the ASA which can be used for backup.

I see that now, &nbsp;good catch. <br />

Hi - we use a Cisco ASA5505 and have two different ISP's at our office. We would like one to failover to the other as a backup (Cogent T1 has been giving weekly outtages). Can we set both WAN ip's into the router without effecting our internal gateway or internal settings? Basically I want this to be as hands off as possible. Thanks!

Can a Cisco ASA5505 support mutiple WAN IP's?

Hardware-based firewalls provide more sophisticated protection for inbound and outbound traffic than the simple Windows software firewall or the basic NAT firewalls found in routers. These devices implement techniques such as stateful packet inspection, deep packet inspection, and content filtering; and may include built-in antivirus and anti-malware protection.

Hardware Firewalls

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.

Routers

Networking hardware includes the physical devices facilitating the use of a computer network. Typically, networking hardware includes gateways, routers, network bridges, modems, wireless access points, networking cables, line drivers, switches, hubs, and repeaters. But it also includes hybrid network devices such as multilayer switches, protocol converters, bridge routers, proxy servers, firewalls, network address translators, multiplexers, network interface controllers, wireless network interface controllers, ISDN terminal adapters and other related hardware.
