Start with "diag debug flow" and see what it shows. You can also  run a diag sniffer packet <interface> "icmp" and  see what other icmp-message might come down the tunnel

Hello,

Use the Amazon EC2 console or command line to ensure that there are no network access control lists (NACLs) in your Amazon VPC that affect the ability of the attached VPN to establish network connectivity.

Verify that there are no firewalls blocking traffic to the Amazon EC2 instances inside the VPC.

Thanks.

hi,

I have a similar problem,  when performing the sniffer and sending a ping to aws I get an echo request no replay and if I send the ping from AWS I just get replay.

Hello, I got this working.  

You have to do two things in AWS as well to make it work.  Add a route the outside IP of your ASA under VPN connection (xx.xx.xx.xx/32) and add an inbound rule in the appropriate security group to allow ICMP from the same source IP of your outside ASA IP. 

Once you do that the ip sla will start working. This will solve your AWS VPN PING ISSUE.

Thanks.

Auto Scaling provides you with an option to enable Auto Scaling for one or more EC2 instances by attaching them to your existing Auto Scaling group. After the instances are attached, they become a part of the Auto Scaling group.

If you are aiming to use Auto Scaling, then certain important points must be acknowledged. This particular section helps you to gain the basic information regarding it. All these can be clearly explained in AWS Training.

Auto Scaling helps you maintain application availability. Auto Scaling launches and terminates Amazon EC2 instances automatically according to user-defined policies, schedules, and alarms. You can use Auto Scaling to maintain a fleet of Amazon EC2 instances that can adjust to any presented load. You can also use Auto Scaling to bring up multiple instances in a group at one time.
