JOINT-2 upgrade

Hello

I level JOINT-2 image from v5 to v6 (IPS - K9 - 6.0 - 4A - E1.pkg), after this upgrade should we go for the improvement of the recovery Partition?

Thank you

Dinesh

The recovery partition is automatically promoted to IPS - K9 - 6.0 - 4A - E1. The maintenance partition will not I think. This is a release of an improved IPS earlier:

Application partition:

Cisco Intrusion Prevention System, Version 6.0 (4A) E1

......

......

Maintenance of Partition Version 2.1 (2)

Recovery Partition Version 1.1 - 6.0 (4A) E1

  • The JOINT-2 upgrade

    I'm trying to upgrade Cisco Intrusion Prevention System, Version 6.0 (3) E1 to E1 Version 6.04 (a). The site downloads The Software download Resource is in .pkg format. Configuration for SPI guide says to install the image with a. bin.gz format. How to reconcile this discrepancy?

    There are 2 types of files, and you see the information on both types.

    The first type are "Upgrades". These files can be used to upgrade an earlier version to a newer version and automatically convert your configuration to work with the new version.

    These files end .pkg and are installed in one of the following methods:

    (1) the upgrade of sensor CLI command.

    (2) automatic updates

    (3) by IDM

    (4) by the CSM

    Here are the directions for "redevelopment" of the sensor:

    http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/docs/security/IPS/6.0/Configuration/Guide/CLI/cliImage.html#wp1142504

    I would recommend installation E2 6.0 (5) instead of 6.0 E1 (4A). You can skip from 3,0000 E1 to E2 5,0000 using this file:

    IPS - K9 - 6.0 - 5 - E2.pkg

    http://www.Cisco.com/cgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/ips6

    (You might even consider going to 6.1 (1) E2)

    NOTE: The same update file works on all platforms of sensor (including the JOINT-2) with the exception of the AIM Module - router IPS IPS (he has a special record of upgrade).

    The other type of file is an Image of the system.

    An Image of the system does not actually at level, instead it reformats the disk and installs everything to make loko as a new sensor to this version.

    I recommend that you only use Images from the system when you want to config should be removed completely, or if you need to recovery after disaster because of a damaged sensor.

    System Images are those that end in. bin.gz.

    Here are the installation instructions for the system for JOINT-2 Images:

    http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/docs/security/IPS/6.0/Configuration/Guide/CLI/cliImage.html#wp1031426

    The file is:

    IPS-IDSM2-K9-sys-1.1-a-6.0-5-E2.bin.gz

    http://www.Cisco.com/cgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/ips6-cat6500-IDSM2-sys

    (There is a separate system for each type of sensor Image)

    I recommend that you only install an 'upgrade' and not a file system Image.

  • The process of JOINT-2 upgrade issues.

    Hello

    I started a new job and have been responsible for research in what we can do with the JOINT-2 module that we have in our 6509. The company has not used the module so it has not been updated in a few years. I don't have a current license, so I know not I can't install new updates of signature, but what I want to do is to upgrade the software to release 7.0 (5 a) E4. Once I've upgraded, I want to set it up in our environment and then see to obtain a license from signature.

    I have a few questions about the upgrade process and could use some assistance.

    First METHOD is running version 3,0000 S256.0. What I've read I don't think I can go directly to 7,0 E4 (5A), so my planned upgrade path is: 5.1 (3) S256.0-> 8,0000 E3-> 7.0 E4 (5A).

    I am able to update in this way, or is there another recommended method, I have to do this upgrade?

    Files I have for this are lower, will they be enough or have I missed one?

    I apply in the listed order?

    Can I apply all of these files from the IDM interface?

    IPS - K9 - 5.1 - 8 - E3.pkg

    IPS-engine-E3-req-5.1-8.pkg<--- is="" this="" included="" in="" the="" above="">

    IPS-K9-r-1.1-a-5.1-8-E3.pkg

    IPS-K9-7, 0-5 a - E4.pkg

    IPS-K9-r-1.1-a-7.0-5A-E4.pkg

    I intend to save first my setup just in case, but it should have no effect on the configuration?

    I have also seen that the upgrade will convert the configuration, so should I save a second time between 8,0000 E3 and 7.0 (5 a) E4 step?

    Will there be effects on traffic network or downtime during this process?

    Is there something else I need to know or miss me?

    Thanks in advance,

    Will be

    Hi Will. As you have indicated that this sensor has not been in use, it would be faster/more easier to simply recreate the image directly on the desired version (7.0(5a) E4). Additional benefits to achieve are the file system of the probe will be created clean, BONE / binary properly installed, without the potential problems of conversion of config, etc..

    Instructions step by step to achieve this can be found here.

    And the system recovery Image file, you will need ("IPS-IDSM2-K9-sys-1.1-a-7.0-5a-E4.bin.gz") can be downloaded here.

    Will there be any effect on network traffic or downtime during this process?

    It depends on if the sensor is configured in Promiscuous Mode or Inline [VLAN pair]. You can determine this from the catalyst config. If the sensor is installed in Inline Mode [VLAN pair], certainly recreate it the image (and even simply upgrade) could be traffic-one impact (if there is no backup/alternative for traffic to take path), as in both scenarios, the sensor is rebooted and unavailable for 10 minutes (during this time, he wouldn't be transfer traffic (if it was installed in line)). In addition, given that the redefinition of the results in a clean configuration / by default, if the sensor was configured online, this part of the configuration should be reintroduce post-reimage the sensor know to forward traffic accordingly again. Details on the modes can be found here.

  • the upgrading joint approx 3.5 to vSphere?

    Someone at - it updates these already? Mixed, I mean different QDS as w2k3, w2k8, linux Centos, redhat, debian, freebsd. Run you only upgrade 2.5 VC - & gt; 4.0, or you did clean install? Do you update the hosts through ESX HUU? were there any problems that you encounter during this operation?

    What I have read the general consensus, including our company is:

    Wait for the update 1 is published.

    Upgrade to vcenter 4.  To update some of the guests to vsphere 4.  Upgrade hosts to individual cases.

    I found zero problems my virtual hardware version 4 to version 7 of switching. I've got a great mix of the OS.

    Windows 2000, XP, 2003, Vista, Windows 7, Server 2008, Server 2008 r2, redhat 8, centos 5.3 x 64, rhel 3, rhel4, ubuntu 8.04, 8.10, 9.04.

    Same windows 2008 r2 works flawhless.

    I would upgrade in a way that allows me to restore until I am sure that the work of upgrading.

    The general consensus is to do a new installation instead of upgrading, for version changes increases.

    I intend to reinstall on the systems I upgraded because management agents are not satisfied with the upgrade.

  • Well, it happened again. 40.0 upgrade disabled a bunch of Add-ons including Dashlane. I'll be out of Chrome at least until these problems are resolved.

    Upgrading 40.0 off an unusual number of Add-ons. On my browser, they are
    Bing
    Faster search
    NoScript
    Desktop Launcher
    Qualsys browser Check
    Readability
    Skype Click-to-Call
    WebRank SEO Toolbar
    Extension of filtering Webroot

    If I understand correctly, I have to communicate with each of the producers asking them to restore their check Firefox Add-on.
    Instead, I'll do what I've done in the past and go to Chrome. This deactivation has strongly influenced my browsing experience,
    especially for businesses. Firefox is the only browser I have encountered which disables modules and extensions almost all
    time, it is updated. I love Firefox but this is getting old. I will seriously consider staying on Chrome.

    Two potential problems with 40 Firefox and Add-ons are disabled.

    The first is the 'normal' recurring issue where the developer of the defined extension the maxVersion for the commercial version, and Beta is a superior version. IOW, this developer doesn't "support" pre-commercial versions and not a pre-release version such as Beta. Nothing that can be done about it except to use the Release version [currently Firefox 39.0] when using modules that invoke you.
    A very limited number of extensions have beta versions available for pre-release versions as beta. and a few even in 'charge' night, WD/Aurora and beta channels.
    In addition, if an extension is created with binary components, it must be "transferred" correctly or it is automatically disabled and requires an update to install. Mozilla is very strict with binary components into modules, which some browsers do not allow to be installed at all. Binary components may pose a risk to security, so Mozilla rigor.

    The 2nd question can involve the signing of the Extension.
    https://blog.Mozilla.org/addons/2015/02/10/extension-signing-safer-experience/
    This could well have been postponed to 41 of Firefox.
    https://wiki.Mozilla.org/addons/Extension_Signing
    Currently I'm not under a Beta version on this PC, so I have no first-hand knowledge of what is happening on the beta channel.

    Take a look at all: addons and see if any of these disabled extensions see the -signed which is how you can tell if a p [joint extension is signed or not.
    For some reason any NoScript seems to be one of a few very popular extensions that are hosted on the Addons.Mozilla.org website which is still "-signed", which surprises me. The only one I on 21 total of extensions which is hosted at AMO which is has not been "updated" for the signature of the Extension for now. Other extensions you mentioned, I do not think are available from AMO and I didn't need them, so I don't know if any of those who have been 'signed' yet or not.

  • Omen of HP: HP OMEN 15 Gaming Notebook upgrade

    Hello. I want to ask about the OMEN of HP 15 Playbook.
    I understand that the only upgradable in OMEN is the SSD storage. So the question is, can I put 1 TB SSD in HP OMEN? is it compitable or not?

    Yes, you can install a module of ISS 1 TB SATA M.2 in there, BUT the access panel is identified with a 'joint' rubber which needs to be removed and will most likely get destroyed in the process, and replacements are impossible to find on the market. I had the 256 GB version of the Omen and I have usually no Ben to open a laptop, but I did not touch the omen because I knew that I could not find the joint for sale anywhere.

    You can not do

    the old hard disk contains the drivers for the motherboard that is old and in all likelihood will not start when it is installed with the new motherboard

    a clean install is normally required when changing motherboards

    I need to upgrade the JOINT-2 Modules in my 6513 switches worm. 4.x to 5.0.1. (a significant modernization). The procedures show that "the system will restart at the end of the upgrade... ». My question is which system will restart? Will just restart JOINT-2 module or the whole switch?

  • Questions about the upgrade to the 4.0 unit

    Hi all

    I have a few questions before the server upgrade to 4.0 to 3.1.3 and install a new Server 4.0. We currently have 7 servers unit all current 3.1.3 running with digital networks. We are planning to upgrade a Server 4.0 and install a new server with 4.0 costs. This is the beginning of the upgrade of the entire company and my questions are the following:

    1 will update the AD schema during the installation/upgrade to 4.0 problems with the 3.1.3 other servers?

    2 since there isn't that one account of the unit currently with the 3.1.3 configuration, creating 4 new accounts unit cause any problem or should I / can I use the current to the unityadmin the unit account or one of the other 3 new accounts? I would like to start over again with 4 new accounts and not use the current service account and migrate to new accounts during the upgrade other servers.

    3. is there a problem to have 3.1.3 servers running jointly with 4.0 servers in general?

    My impression is that this is very well that I would no problem to start the 3.1.3 servers alongside with 4.0 servers, there should be no problem to use new accounts of the unit and this update of the AD schema should not be a problem for the old servers, but I want to make sure before doing the update/install.

    Oh, it's all run with Exchange 2000.

    Thanks for your time!

    Keith

    (1) it is backward compatible

    (2) creation of 4 new accounts will be fine.

    (3) you can run 3.1 (x) alongside with 4.x

  • JOINT-2 do not update 6500 ACL

    I have a 6500 JOINT-2 blade that is configured to create an ACL blocking in the 6500 to a few signatures. We work for a few years but recently stopped. The JOINT detects attacks and think it refreshes the 6500, but the 6500's ACL is not updated and the 6500 shows no connection IDs. I see no error msgs anywhere. When I manually insert an IP address block through the client of IDM, it appears in the sensor without error, but the 6500 is not updated. This seems to have started all of the time I installed S324 (26/03/08). The sensor is now S329. I restarted the IDS with no effect in behavior.

    Can anyone suggest what I could look to narrow the problem? Thank you.

    Are you running version 6.0 (4)?

    There is a known problem during upgrade from version prior to 6.0 (4). Passwords of blocking on routers, firewalls, and switches, as well as passwords for automatic updates were not converted correctly.

    CSCso31217 encrypted password not decrypted after upgrade

    For users already loading 6.0 (4), to solve the problem, the user must re-enter these passwords.

    For users still on older versions and want to upgrade to 6.0 (4), they should rather be upgraded to 6.0(4a). The 6.0(4a) allows to convert passwords correctly.

    NOTE: Users already at 6.0 (4) cannot be upgraded to 6.0(4a) and will have to reenter the passwords on the sensors.

    This problem has been seen with the 6.0 upgrade package (4) that when upgrading from old versions 5.1 and 6.0.

    NOTE: The system image and recovery for 6.0 (4) are all very well.

    If you are running a version of 6.0 (4), then that is probably your problem rather than an update of the signature.

    IF you are running version 6.0 (4), there is a small possibility that you might have discovered a new bug which ignores Cisco.

  • What happens when JOINT-2 performance is exceeded

    Hello

    We have JOINT-2 with about 20 pairs of vlan inline in the test environment. What happens to online traffic ourselves, said a flow of 500 Mbps? Falls of traffic or is it transmitted without IPS inspection.

    If you exceed the capacity of the sensor monitoring, then the packets that cannot be monitored will be abandoned by the sensor.

    NOTE: 500Mbps isn't a number of absolute performance for the sensor. It's a level of performance that the sensor has been testeed to be able to manage for certain types of traffic used in the performance test. We don't know exactly how much traffic the sensor will be able to manage to your network. The JOINT-2 will probably handle around 500 Mbps is a lot and even most customer networks. However, the networks vary, and in some networks, it can handle quite a bit less traffic and other networks can handle even more.

    So the question is not what will happen if you send more than 500 Mbps, but rather what will happen if you send more traffic than what the sensor is able to monitor. And the answer is that all traffic that cannot be monitored because of the limitations of performance will be dropped by the sensor.

    The only time where the packets are forwarded without inspection is if sensorApp has ceased to monitor all packets (a reconfiguration or an upgrade is in progress, or the process of sensorApp crashed) AND the functionality of the software workaround August kicks. Which case all packets will be forwarded without analysis.

  • The issue of JOINT - 2 Activation of license?

    Hello everyone, I want to know that can I install joint-2 module and get it operational without installing the license? Suppose I can get updates of signature with ACO account.so in other joint-2 can work with considerations of upgrading without license installed on it? Thank you

    The JOINT-2 will occur. However you will not be able to install signature updates. Once you install them... they will install > uninstall displaying an error message.

    I would * very * recommend to buy a license of signature (even if it's IPS signatures only without hardware support... If possible).

  • installation of update of signature for JOINT-2 AIP - SSM

    Hi every one, im not sure about this issue but I think its beter ask you experts.i want to know that if I update the signature for example for my JOINT-2 can I install this update of GIS on my AIP - SSM--> assume that software IPS on both devices are same and I also installed the license key valid on AIP - SSM.now can I do this or not? and I know that if you do not license installed on JOINT-2 you cannot install any point of GIS on JOINT-2 but this topic AIP - SSM? I want to say I can install updated GIS on AIP - SSM without installed the license key valid on AIP - SSM? Thank you

    There are 3 main types of Signature updates.

    (1) IPS sensor Signature Update

    (2) updates of Signature CSM for IPS sensors

    (3) signing IOS IPS updates

    The IPS Signature Update file name is in the form: IPS-GIS-Sxxx-req - Ey.pkg

    That's probably what you are referrnig to in your message. This file can be installed on ANY device IDS/IPS or Module.

    Here, the requirement is not the platform but rather the level of the engine. The part "req - Ey" in the file name indicates that the sensor has already run the 'y' the software engine level.

    If a file IPS-GIS-S436-req - E3.pkg can be installed on any IDS/IPS device or Module as long as the software on this sensor is a version of the 'E3 '.

    The CSM updates are updates of signature for the Cisco Security Manager. They contain special files that SCM uses to update, and then also included in the JLC update is the update of real sensor described above. CSM unpackages the CSM update, updates and then uses this file embedded to upgrade the actual sensor.

    The third type of file is for routers IOS loaded with the special IOS software that has the distinction of IOS IPS where the router itself (instead of a separate module of the IDS/IPS) keeps track of the signature.

    These updates to the signing IOS IPS settle on the real router and are not installed on the Modules or the sensor IDS/IPS devices.

    So to answer your question, yes the same Signature Update for your JOINT-2 is the exact same Signature Update for your SSM modules.

    The same exact file is available through several different paths on cisco.com. But no matter which way cisco.com you have downloaded the file, you can always install it on all the Modules and the IDS/IPS Appliances.

    With respect to licensing, the license works the same on all Modules and the IDS/IPS Appliances. A license must be on the sensor for the Signature Update to apply.

    NOTE: A trial license is available at cisco.com for new sensors to allow you to get everything set up properly for your sensor to be covered by a service contract and get the standard license for the service contract.
