Automatic update AIP-SSM-10 and ASA 5510 (Beginner)

I see that it is possible to automate the updates of the ASA 5510 and AIP SSM via FTP on my own server. Is it possible to automate the download directly from Cisco.com?

Thank you!

Jeremy

Jeremy, the answer to your question is correct, as far as the Cisco products are concerned. So I wrote a PERL app that does exactly that, and I published an article about it in the June 2007 issue of Sys Admin magazine. Here's the article online: http://www.samag.com/documents/s=10128/sam0706a/0706a.htm

And it is also on my site, with a tar of scripts to:

Good luck.

  • Updated AIP-SSM-10 on ASA 5510

    Hello

    I want to upgrade the IPS module in an ASA 5510, and I have a few questions. The AIP - SSM is running E3 479.0 1.0000 and I have a valid account of the ORC etc for this.

    1. What is the version of the software on the question of the ASA?
    2. When I look in the software downloads< ips="" there="" are="" .pkg="" and="" .img="" files.="" i="" want="" to="" upgrade="" to="" 6.3(3)e4.="" do="" i="" have="" to="" re-image="" the="" ips="">
    3. AFAIK redefinition to wipe the device so I just reload the config after, right?
    4. I guess I can apply any update after going to E4?
    5. Can you give me links for this upgrade?

    see you soon

    Let me give some clarification on a few points:

    2. There is no need to recreate the image on the device using the .img file.  You can improve the mechanism of maintenance of your existing configuration using the .pkg file.  It is the recommended method for upgrading to Cisco IPS devices/modules.  The .img file to recreate the image should only be used to restore the default device.

    5 here are links for the upgrade of the probe using a .pkg file.  For updates through the IDM user interface:

    http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/docs/security/IPS/6.2/configuration/guide/IDM/idm_sensor_management.html#wp2126670

    For upgrades via the CLI:

    http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/docs/security/IPS/6.2/configuration/guide/CLI/cli_system_images.html#wp1142504

    Another point of clarification; current releases of IPS software supported on the AIP-SSM-10 are (taking into account you are currently running 6.2 (1) E3):

    6.2 (3) E4

    7.0 (4) E4

    You can go directly to each output.

  • AIP-SSM-10 and syslog

    I ASA5520 with AIP-SSM-10, and I want to send messages from IPS sensor to the external syslog server. I'm not able to find, how to configure it.

    Thank you for any suspicion.

    From now on, SSM modules cannot be configured to send events as syslogs to a syslog server. You can send these events to the spectators of the event or security monitor.

    Hello

    This State is reached when the policies of the phase 1 do not correspond to the two ends.

    Please confirm that you have the same settings of phase 1 on both sides with the following commands:

    See the isakmp crypto race

    See the race ikev1 crypto

    Also make sure that port UDP 500 and 4500 are open for communication between your device and the remote peer.

    Finally, make sure you have a route suitable for the remote VPN endpoint device.

    Hope that helps.

  • The AIP - SSM to unused ASA connection interface

    Hi people,

    Perhaps, someone has already raised this issue, but I was unable to find anything relevant. We have an ASA with an unused interface (gig0/3). The sensor of the AIP - SSM is physically connected to this interface with the following IP settings:

    Sensor (192.168.2.2/30,192.168.2.1)---interface ASA (192.168.2.1/30)

    It's basically point to point connectivity, and I can reach the ASA of the sensor and the other way around.

    This design is dictated by the lack of a free port on the switch.

    Technically, it should work without any problems, but I can't seem to be able to reach the sensor. There is a switch between my PC and the sensor and the switch has the corresponding static route added. I can reach the switch sensor.

    Is there a security feature hidden I don't know that prevent communication with the sensor.

    And ACL of the sensor allows the traffic to all networks (0.0.0.0/0)

    With the sensor acl set to 0.0.0.0/0, the sensor must be allowing connectivity.

    You can use the 'View of package' command on the sensor to look at packets on the interface command and control to see if the packets are what makes the sensor.

    You say that you have a static route on your switch for the switch reach your sensor. Do you know if your PC is configured to use the switch as the computer's default router. If the PC is to use a different default router, then the other router should also the static route.

    The other possibility is that the SAA itself can be deny traffic.

    Since this is an ASA connected to the MSS interface, the traffic must be routed through the ASA. Standard firewall rules apply to this traffic. The security level of the interfaces can prevent traffic, and an ACL may be necessary in order to allow the circulation of your PC be routed to the SSM.

    NOTE: If you don't want to have to worry about roads, the other alternative is to make the network between the ASA and SSM to be an isolated network that only 2 machines know.

    You can then use PAT static to map a port on the inside of the ASA interface with the address of the SSM 443 https port and map a second port of the SAA within the interfaces to the address of the SSM SSH port.

    How your home PC would simply plug the ASA IP using these specific ports and the ASA would do the translation of port and transmit on the MSS.

    The SSM address could also be dynamically PAT would have on the SAA within the address, so SSM could start the connection to other machines on the inside network.

    Another alternative if you have addresses available on your inside network IP is to use static NAT instead of PAT. And just go forward and has the ASA statically map an IP network on IP of the SSM on the network that only the ASA and the SSM inside could know.

    In both cases the network between the ASA and SSM would not routable at, and you wouldn't have to worry of reproducing static routes anywhere.

    SIDE NOTE: A separate network for the SSM you Becase you will also need to NAT or PAT address of the SSM for the ASA to outside interface. In this way the SSM will be able to connect to Internet to download cisco.com auto updates, and/or pull overall correlation of servers cisco information. It's probably the same configuration that you would already other internal addresses, and just to be sure, you cover the SSM since you have it on a separate subnet.

  • AIP - SSM upgrade for ASA active / active

    Hello world!

    I need help on improving the aip - ssm modules to E4 on two s asa who are active/active state. I'll be able to do this without downtime? What are the considerations?

    AIPs are independent of the resumption of the SAA, however, the SAA can consider the status of the AIP in passage of failover, which means it can failover

    If it detects a module AIP descending on the active device.

    The best method for upgrading in this situation will be the status of active failover Setup for all groups on the SAA primary, then upgrade the AIP of the ASA high school.

    Once the agreement in principle of the school is completely updated and functional, then set all groups to be active with the ASA failover secondary.

    Then the primary AIP.

    Once the primary AIP is completely level and working, you can then restore the status of the ASAs failover, by setting the active failover for the Group on the ASAs specific you want them to be active on...

    Kind regards

    I have a laptop HP HDX16. Recently, the hard drive has not then I replaced and the restore CD to return to factory settings. It's windows vista edition Home premium 64-bit with service pack one.

    I use a usb huawei modem to connect to the internet, however, the drivers would not install properly.

    I used another computer to download a version of service pack 2. However, 3/4 of the way through the installation I have error E_unexpected 0c8000ffff handler. I installed fixit 50202 I had seen on the forum, but this has not fixed the problem.

    I then tried to run the installation program stand-alone windows update (KB947821-v4) However, this resulted in the 0xc8000247 error code.

    I then tried to install the mobile fix it program to see is there something that could contribute. However there is no whenever he tried to install powershell.

    I was able to use the usb modem by starting in safe mode and allowing unsigned drivers. From here, I tried to run the automatic update, but which gave the error code A 8024, 000. The usb modem wouldn't always work outside of safe mode.

    I also tried a complete reinstall with the recovery discs, but I still get the same errors.

    Norton antivirus is pre-installed. This was also replaced, but the same errors occurred. However, I was able to successfully install other software not microsoft.

  • Interfaces of AIM - SSM and ASA 5510

    All, someone can explain if and how routing works between the ASA and the map of the IPS?

    (1) is the single NIC in the card IPS management purposes only?

    (2) is the IP address configured in the process of installing the card for that one NIC?

    (3) should it have no routing between for example the management of the ASA or any other interface and card management interface or can they reside on completely separate networks?

    Thank you

    Jonathan

    Map of the IPS has 3 interfaces.

    The management interface is an external interface that you plug a network cable in. The IP address is configured by the user during installation.

    Sniffing is the internal interface of data backplane ASA. No IP address is never assigned to this interface.

    Interface control plan is an internal control ASA management interface, so that the SAA can communicate internally to the SSM (the session command runs through this interface). The IP address of the control plan is controlled by the ASA and not user configurable,

    The management interface's management only.

    The IP address that is configured during installation is only for this management interface.

    Regarding the routing between the ASA and the SSM, it's completely up to the user.

    All communications from the ASA to the SSM are made internally through interface control plan and therefore the SAA itself has no need to know how to communicate on the SSM management IP.

    The SSM, however, must communicate from IP management is one of the ASA interfaces to Shunning/blocking on the SAA. Shunning/blocking is not through the control plan.

    When you use IDM or ASDM for configuration as java Web applet access to DFS management IP so the computer that runs the IDM or ASDM must be on the local network of the MSS management port, or routable network.

    Some scenarios:

    (1) only one machine (IDS MC/s LUN) communicating with the SSM. In this scenario, you could take a crossover cable and connect directly one machine to the MSS.

    The SSM can communicate only on this computer into one.

    (2) a secure network to manage security devices that is NOT routable from the other networks.

    In this scenario the box management, DFS management port and the management of the ASA port would be all placed in a network.

    The SSM would be able to communicat with the box management and the ASA management port.

    The ASA management port is configured as a management only for the ASA port will not route input/output of the management network.

    While management on this local network zone can communicate with the SSM, and no distance box cannot connect directly to the SSM.

    (NOTE: blocking/Shunning will work here because the SSM can speak to the ASA)

    (3) a secure network which IS routable from the other networks.

    Similar to option 2 above, but in this case the ASA management port is configured to NOT be a 'single management' port and is instead treated as any other port on the firewall. In this configuration, the management port of the ASA CAN road entrance/exit to the management network.

    NOTE: In most cases the ASA will need to configure a NAT for the SSM management IP address if users want to connect on the SSM management IP remotely from the Internet (such as running ASDM of the main network of the company on the internet to set up the SAA and the SSM on a remote site)

    (4) SSM management IP on one of the normal networks behind the ASA. In this screenplay DFS management port would be connected to a switch or a hub where other internal machines are connected (like jumping in the DMZ switch / vlan). The ASA point of view of the management port SSM would be treated as any other web and ssh server behind the firewall.

  • Suddenly are not install updates to Windows XP. Question started with 7 automatic updates on 7/12 and every day since, without success.

    I have tried to download Fix - It Microsoft .NET Framework but had msg: this product not supported by X 86 operating system.  What?   Can anyone suggest what is the problem, why suddenly updates do not occur.  Thank you!

    I guess that we are talking about updates .NET Frameworks then since you did not say which ones fail, etc.?

    A common problem with .NET updates. To do this...

    If it's updates of .NET 1.1 you speak:
    Uninstall the .NET Framework 1.1. Then download the .NET Framework Cleanup Tool
    In the drop-down list box, select 1.1 and clean.
    Reinstall .NET Framework 1.1
    Download and install. NET Framework 1.1 Service Pack 1
    Visit Windows Update or Microsoft Update and let it install the rest of the 1.1 updates.

    If it's updates to .NET 2.0 you speak:
    Uninstall the .NET Framework 2.0. Then download the .NET Framework Cleanup Tool
    In the drop-down list box, select 2.0 and clean.
    Reinstall .NET Framework 2.0
    Visit Windows Update or Microsoft Update and let it install the rest of the 2.0 updates.

    Check if they install and report.

    I don't think updates for 3.5 where released this last patch Tuesday, but not 100% sure. If so, do the same for them.
