Configure ASA device in GNS3

This post is about how you can emulate ASA on GNS3

First Download GNS3 and install it on your OS
Then Download below essentials

• Initrd: C:\ASA\asa842-initrd.gz
• Kernel: C:\ASA\asa842-vmlinuz

Then need to create a FLASH file

ASA Failover Configuration

For this configuration I'm going to use GNS3 with QEMU emulator to run a ASA in a virtual environment. 

First get the files downloaded 

GNS3 : https://www.gns3.com/

ASA Images : 

ASA842-Intrid and ASA842vmlinuz

I'm not going to describe how to set the ASA in GNS3

For failover configuration

Node 01 : 

(config)#failover lan unit primary

(config)#failover lan interface FOLINK Gi0/0

(config)#failover interface ip FOLINK 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.0 standby 10.1.1.2 

(config)#failover

Node 02 : 

(config)#failover lan unit secondary

(config)#failover lan interface FOLINK Gi0/0

(config)#failover interface ip FOLINK 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.0 standby 10.1.1.2 

(config)#failover
