Hi everyone,

I am a little bit confused on how to do do an outside shared interface
on an ASA.  This has been asked recently, but I think I am asking
something slightly different here.

Say I have (as mentioned) a shared physical outside, and two separate
physical interfaces for the respective insides.  The outside
interfaces are in separate vlans, and I have configured a trunk on the
respective switchport.

I think that I _probably_ dont need static MACs, as they are in
different vlans anyway and L2 will sort out over the trunk which vlan,
and hence context, to send the frames to, however for the purposes of
this discussion, lets say I want to configure static MAC for my own
sanity.  I think I need to configure the MAC addresses in the
interface config on each respective context, as opposed to from the
system context.  What I have done I have included below.

This is not a particular lab scenario, just something I am playing
with right now as I cant authenticate my IPExpert DRM from my hotel
network for some silly reason.  I am sure the answer is in there
somewhere *sigh*

I also expect what I have done should work if both outside interfaces
were in the same subnet (ie not trunked, two access ports same vlan).

Cheers,
Matt
