• Support for hardware and signature to the AIP SSM-10

  We have a 5510 which we bought a map AIP SSM-10 for the SAA, which is already the subject of a support contract. We now want to add the hardware maintenance for the new card AIP SSM-10 as signature updates. Our Cisco provider is confirmed we will receive that updates of signature with hardware support (we tried to get a response from them since June or July now).

  Could someone let us know what is the correct part number, and so we can ask the specific option that will allow both the material cover and signature updates.

• How to tune the signatures of the AIP-SSM-20

  Hi all

  When I connect my ASA IPS module, I see a lot of signatures with risk of HEIGHT, but they are not activated (ENABLED). I dould so it is recommended to activate all these signatures risk of UPWARD in the IPS. I think that if these signatures risk rating of the TOP, then they should all be activate to combat the threat to security. It will cause performance degradation if all are activate? or it crashes a part of legitimate traffic if all are enabled to combat the thrreat?

  I'll be very grateful for your help.

  Kind regards.

  No, it's definitely not recommended to enable all the signatures on IP addresses. It will certainly be performance degradation because it is not intended to be all activated.

  The team of Cisco IPS préactivés current signatures and twist the signatures on each update of the signature, if it is considered at high risk for security. Those who have been turned off are likely to be old signatures that are more current, at this stage unless you don't not patch your hosts to end. IPS will monitor and/or block threats however, it is always the responsibility of the administrator of the host to patch hosts. IPS will only prevent and guide you to patch the end hosts.

• 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.

• Signature updates

  Hello

  I very much back to IPS I want to update my AIP - SSM 10 Mr. signatures as if now on cisco site there are updates the signature file, the most recent is S495, I m in my EPI S300, which is so is to update all small parcel until S495 signature that I have to download maually 1 by 1 or any link to download bulk signing up the last while.

  Thank you

  Haya;

  You should make sure you are running a version of IPS software that contains the E4 analytical engine (6.0 (6) E4 E4 6.2 (2) or 7.0 (2) E4).  You can then download the latest signature update package (S491) and apply this update.  You don't need to apply each update of signature package.

• AIP - SSM 10 Signature Update license?

  Hi every one.we had an AIP - SSM 10 for our asa5520.actually it is bundle asa5520 + AIP-SSM10. (part number ASA5520-AIP10-K9 =)

  (1) I want to know that if we want to improve our signature aip - ssm we get the Services Cisco IPS download signatures or not with this number of pürt we get it too!

  (2) in the case and we must get the Cisco IPS services separately so where can I find a reference number for the services of this?

  (3) what license that must be installed on the sensor activation? If we get the Cisco Services for FPS then we receive license activation for installation on sensor too? or not if not, can we install signatures on a sensor that it has not been activated yet? guess we can get a few signatures how! (I know JOINT-2 we cannot install any license until the license is installed on the sensor.) Thank you

  CON-SU1-AS2A10K9 would be the correct contract to put all the pieces of the boot under the maintenance contract.

  CON-SU1-ASIP10K9, this is what is used when the AIP-SSM-10 are purchased as spare.

  I don't know if yes or no this Service Cisco IPS contract can be used to cover only the AIP-SSM-10 if it was purchased as part of a package instead of a spare part. You will need to ask your reseller or Cisco sales representative.

• 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, failure to update the cisco Web site

  Hi all

  I want to know the reason why my AIP - SSM fails to update its signatures automatically from cisco website. I put the module do cisco automatic signature update, but it doesn't matter when he tries to update, it displays an error message that reads "= error: exception Autoupdate: HTTP failed to connect (1 111) ' find the exact error message attached. The interface of my AIP - SSM is behind the proxy of the company and I put the proxy to allow Module AIP - SSM establish a connection to the internet.  What could be wrong?

  Your help will be very appreciated.

  Concerning

  Automatic update to the signature of the IPS is not supported through proxy server.

  The configuration of the proxy server on the IPS is only for the overall correlation.

  You must allow direct access for the automatic update of signature to IPS.

• AIP-SSM-10 update

  Hello

  I have a client who has the run of the ASA 2 that each filled with AIP - SSM. The IPS has 6.1 (1) E3 software and I would like to upgrade to the latest.

  I'm looking through the sections to download and read the minimum requirements of 7.0 (7) E4 but cannot find the file to download to AIP - SSM.

  NOTE: The IPS-AIM-K9-7.0-7-E4.pkg upgrade file can only be used to upgrade AIM-IPS sensors. The IPS-NME-K9-7.0-7-E4.pkg upgrade file can only be used to upgrade NME-IPS sensors. For all other supported sensors, use the IPS-K9-7.0-7-E4.pkg upgrade file.

  Each updated image that I look for E4 has only IPS-K9-version and the description says all supported except AIM - IPS and NME - IPS platforms. Can someone help me to find the right image for upgrade?

• 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:

  Can someone briefly tell me the details of database signature (number of Signature) among the following devices

  --> ASA IPS/IOS IPS/IPS 42xx/AIP-SSM.

  Thank you

  IPS on ASA/PIX = signatures only 50 or so common

  Module AIP - SSM is same signatures as the Cisco 4200 series sensors. Few minor differences exist (such as signature support IPv6 etc.)

  Please rate if useful.

• Signature - updated antivirus definition

  All,

  I worry a bit with the version of update of virus that I see when I run a 'see the version' on our IPS (AIP-SSM-10)

  I get the following output...

  Definition of signature:

  Update of the signature S369.0 2008-12-06

  Virus update V1.4 2007-03-02

  I thought the update of virus was included in the definitions of signature, and as a result, I would have expected the date should be the same on both (i.e. 2008-12-06).

  Can someone explain if that's OK? where I can get the latest virus update...

  Thanks in advance for your help

  Steve

  Steve-

  This isn't something you have to worry. This surfaces topic on a regular basis, so I'll quote two of the best answers of marcabal and mhellman.

  Posted by: marcabal - October 18, 2007, 11:30 am PST

  This is the latest version.

  V signatures are created by Trend Micro Systems when a major virus/worm outbreak occurs and an update of emergency is necessary.

  The V update can then be deployed via a Cisco ICS Management Server.

  But it was not a great emergnecy epidemic in the last 2 years that required a special signature update V.

  Instead the signatures of viruses/worms the last two years have come to be included in the procedure of updating signature standard and figuratively in our standard S signature levels without the need of special emergency updates.

  Often the vulnerability was already detected by an update of standard signature S before the virus/worm started to spread.

• AIP-SSM-10 upgrade question

  I have an AIP-SSM-10 (IPS - K9 - 6.0 - 5 - E2) running inside an ASA (active failover mode / standby). I tried to put a signature update today (version S447, first time) and he said I need engine lvl 3 to update the signature and I am currently at lvl 2.

  Here's my question, what are the versions can I go to? I'm stuck with the versions of level 2 of the engine when using the AIP - SSM or can I put on until the next major release of 2.0000 E3. And is it really a good idea or not. What would you suggest?

  Also, I guess I would need to install the release .pkg file. Is this good?

  Thanks in advance!

  You can switch to the 5,0000 E3, 6,0000 E3 or one of the E3 7.0 images (x). You want the .pkg file.

  Mount the sensor in the CLI:

  conf t

  Update ftp://user:password@/ upgradefilename.pkg

  When the sensor complaines on the upgrade, just say 'yes' to go ahead in any case. This is a known bug, do not believe that the CLI.

• AIP - SSM upgrade procedure

  Hello world!

  I have version 8.2 ASA5520 (1) with module AIP-SSM-20

  The IPS E4 engine update

  I'm a little confused by the number of files and you want to ask what the procedure/sequence I should follow to upgrade?

  This is the file that you want to use to upgrade:

  Improved Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) systems

  IPS-K9-7, 0-2 - E4.pkg

  Upgrade:

  (1) download the file 'IPS-K9-7, 0-2 - E4.pkg' through IDM

  (2) IDM--> Configuration--> sensor--> sensor update management--> choose update is located on the client--> choose file 'IPS-K9-7, 0-2 - E4.pkg'--> hit the button "Update".

  It will take some time (about 20 minutes) to upgrade the sensor, so don't panic if it does not return to the top 'UP' status immediately.

  Hope that helps.
