ASA VPN Example

February 25, 2014 by stuartbr

Can we generate ASA Site to Site VPN configuration in this software.

Hi, It certainly can. Please download an example file from http://download.gen-it.net/Gen.IT_ASA-VPN.rar (The example files will be included in releases post 2.4.565)

Extract it into the application folder and add it to Gen.IT by selecting it under the ‘Settings->Select Excel Data Files’

This is an example based on the Cisco doc found here : http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/cloud-systems-management/configuration-professional/112153-ccp-vpn-asa-router-config-00.html

Maximum devices, templates, variables

January 16, 2014 by stuartbr

Can you please elaborate on what the maximum number of devices allowed refers to? Is this the total number of devices I can put in the Excel sheet to generate configurations for? What if I have multiple templates with different devices in each templates. Is it a cumulative number shared between templates, or is it per template at time of generation?

1st off, the license figures refer to a per spreadsheet limit. There is no restriction on the number of spreadsheets that can be referenced.
For a standard licence, Gen.IT will import up to 20 devices, 50 templates and 150 variables when selecting/loading the spreadsheet, there is no restriction on the number of rows per spreadsheet.
Assuming each row of the spreadsheet refers to a site/office/building:
  • Each site can be associated with up to 20 devices
  • Each device can be include up to 50 templates
  • Each template can reference up to 150 unique variables.
 
Example:
 
    • Site 1 (NewYork Office) may have a 2 x 3900 core routers and 2 x 3750 layer 3 switches 
      • Device S1CoreRouterPri, templates:
        • 3x00_Base
          • Variable : Hostname
          • Variable : MgntIP
        • 3900_Interfaces
        • 3x00_Security
        • 3x00_QoS
        • 3900_RouterPri
          • Variable : Router1toSwitch1_IP
          • Variable : Router1toRouter2_IP
      • Device S1CoreRouterSec, templates:
        • 3x00_Base
          • Variable : Hostname
          • Variable : MgntIP
        • 3900_Interfaces
        • 3x00_Security
        • 3x00_QoS
        • 3900_RouterSec
          • Variable : Router2toSwitch2_IP
          • Variable : Router2toRouter1_IP

          • Variable : Hostname
          • Variable : MgntIP
        • 3750_Interfaces
        • 3750_Security
        • 3750_SwitchL3Sec
          • Variable : Switch2toRouter2_IP
          • Variable : Switch2toSwitch1_IP
          • Variable : Vlan1Secondary_IP
          • Variable : Vlan1HSRP_IP
          • Variable : Vlan2Secondary_IP
          • Variable : Vlan2HSRP_IP
 
  • Site 2 (LA Office) may have a 2 x 3800 core routers and 2 x 3750 layer 3 switches 
    • Device S2CoreRouterPri, templates:
      • 3x00_Base
        • Variable : Hostname
        • Variable : MgntIP
      • 3800_Interfaces
      • 3x00_Security
      • 3x00_QoS
      • 3800_RouterPri
        • Variable : Router1toSwitch1_IP
        • Variable : Router1toRouter2_IP
    • Device S2CoreRouterSec, templates:
      • 3x00_Base
        • Variable : Hostname
        • Variable : MgntIP
      • 3800_Interfaces
      • 3x00_Security
      • 3x00_QoS
      • 3800_RouterSec
        • Variable : Router2toSwitch2_IP
        • Variable : Router2toRouter1_IP
    • Device S2SwitchPri, templates:
      • 3750_Base
        • Variable : Hostname
        • Variable : MgntIP
      • 3750_Interfaces
      • 3750_Security
      • 3750_SwitchL3Pri
        • Variable : Switch1toRouter1_IP
        • Variable : Switch1toSwitch2_IP
        • Variable : Vlan1Primary_IP
        • Variable : Vlan1HSRP_IP
        • Variable : Vlan2Primary_IP
        • Variable : Vlan2HSRP_IP
    • Device S2SwitchSec, templates:
      • 3750_Base
        • Variable : Hostname
        • Variable : MgntIP
      • 3750_Interfaces
      • 3750_Security
      • 3750_SwitchL3Sec
        • Variable : Switch2toRouter2_IP
        • Variable : Switch2toSwitch1_IP
        • Variable : Vlan1Secondary_IP
        • Variable : Vlan1HSRP_IP
        • Variable : Vlan2Secondary_IP
        • Variable : Vlan2HSRP_IP
 
    • Site 3 (Boston Office) may have a 1 x 3800 core routers and 1 x 3750 layer 2 switches
      • Device S3CoreRouter, templates:
        • 3x00_Base
          • Variable : Hostname
          • Variable : MgntIP
        • 3800_Interfaces
        • 3x00_Security
        • 3x00_QoS
        • 3800_Router
          • Variable : Router1toSwitch1_IP
      • Device S3Switch, templates:
        • 3750_Base
          • Variable : Hostname
          • Variable : MgntIP
        • 3750_Interfaces
        • 3750_Security
        • 3750_SwitchL2
          • Variable : Switch1toRouter1_IP
          • Variable : Vlan1Primary_IP
          • Variable : Vlan2Primary_IP
So you would need the following devices:
  • CoreRouterPri
  • CoreRouterSec
  • SwitchPri
  • SwitchSec
With the following templates:
  • 3x00_Base
  • 3x00_QoS
  • 3800_Interfaces
  • 3900_Interfaces
  • 3900_RouterPri
  • 3900_RouterSec
  • 3800_RouterPri
  • 3800_RouterSec
  • 3800_Router
  • 3750_Base
  • 3750_Interfaces
  • 3750_Security
  • 3750_SwitchL3Pri
  • 3750_SwitchL3Sec
  • 3750_SwitchL2
With the following Variables:
  • Hostname
  • MgntIP
  • Router1toSwitch1_IP
  • Router1toRouter2_IP
  • Router2toSwitch2_IP
  • Router2toRouter1_IP
  • Switch1toRouter1_IP
  • Switch1toSwitch2_IP
  • Vlan1Primary_IP
  • Vlan1Secondary_IP
  • Vlan1HSRP_IP
  • Vlan2Primary_IP
  • Vlan2Secondary_IP
  • Vlan2HSRP_IP
  • Switch2toRouter2_IP
  • Switch2toSwitch1_IP
So the above setup requires 4 devices, 15 templates, and 16 variables. Additional sites identical to Sites 1,2 or 3 would all use the same devices, templates and variables.

Additional device licenses

January 16, 2014 by stuartbr

What is the cost for additional device licenses? I see it references 30% of the original fee, but not sure exactly what that entails.

Regarding the additional licenses, a license pack would double the original number of devices/templates/variables allowed.
