Update of signature IDS - MC

Hello

I am trying to upgrade my 4250 ID using ID - MC Version 2.01. I downloaded the signature file and placed in the following directory on the server IDS - MC:

"c:\program files\cscopx\mdc\etc\ids\update.

I got following error on the progress Viewer when I try to apply this update using ID - MC.

Local MC: upgrade

This package seems to be corrupted, or refused permission to read the file. Please check the update package and try the operation again.

So, I thought maybe corrupted signature file. I have re-download the same signature s146 and I got the same error. I downloaded the same file using different PCs, but I got the same error.

I checked the file permissions and everything seems OK. I don't know what else to check.

Hello Altaf,

try to update with the zip file and not the file pkg. through the mc ID, you must do so only with the zip file... the file pkg can be directly used when you ftp update of the signature to the IDS.

I hope this helps... all the best...

  • Machines virtual 1.1 how update you the Signatures IDS MC?

    Help!

    Got CW VMS 1.1 and a couple of 4250 IDS boxes, they perform signatures to 3.1.3 (s42), when I try to add them to the MC in SMV (so I can then update sigs) he advises that GIS version is unknown and that I should update the signatures of MC.

    I downloaded IDSk9-GIS - 3.1 - 3 - S49 and placed in the directory of the ID updates within MC, I chose this file to update the MC, but it does not appear to do.

    Once the file is selected and I get th text box informing them that it will be applied, I select continue and he returned to the page "select the file.

    Check the audit log it shows the update is started and finished in the same second period and I still can't import/add the ID of the probes.

    Pointers would be most appreciated.

    Ian,

    I know this sounds illogical, but you must download and apply the update to 3.1.3 (s42) .zip to your Inbox to IDS MC. Problems with updates of the IDS MC, it's that there is no way for the MC to say what GIS have been added as part of S42, S45, S49, etc... Thus, avoid us confusion in the minds of the MC by not letting you add a sensor that has a version of GIS that is unknown to the MC. Once you apply update S43 to MC, add sensors. Then, go back and re-apply the update S49 and you should be the option Update sensors as well this time. Good luck and I hope this helps.

  • 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.

  • How to update a signature

    Hi all

    I'm new to ips ASA-SSM-10

    First time connected to an ips module.

    Can someone give idea how to update the signatures.

    REDA

    Without a license, you have fully functioning IPS sensor but his programm antivirus running similar without updates - without the latest signatures - it protects you from many attacks (using the generation of signatures, heuristic analyzies, Protocol knowledge), but it doesn't protect you from the last attactks...

  • Get a Smartnet contract also gives you updated signature IDS/IPS?

    One of my clients is looking into getting an ASA5510 with module AIP - SSM. I realize that with IDS/IPS systems, it is * essential * to keep files up-to-date signatures. Buying me the Smartnet contract for the bundle gives updates signature files, or is there another package that I need to buy?

    I see references to the "Cisco Services for IPS", but this seems to be mainly for routers/IOS firewall/IDS packages.

    There is not a Smartnet contract for the ASA/AIP-SSM bundle.

    The only contract SmartNET SSM packages with the CSC - SSM and not the AIP - SSM.

    When buying a bundle ASA/AIP-SSM, you'll need to buy a package maintenance contract. Package maintenance contracts are Cisco Service for the IPS markets and include the support of signature for the AIP - SSM and the software and hardware in support of ASA and AIP - SSM (software and hardware support, is what it is normally part of SmartNET).

    Packages you will need to purchase a maintenance contract Service Cisco IPS using one of the formats following part numbers:

    CON-SUw-ASxAyKz

    The 'w' will be 1,2,3 or 4 depending on the level of service.

    The 'x' will be either 1 for the 5510, 2 for the 5520 or 4 for the 5540.

    'Y' will be 10 for the AIP-SSM-10 or 20 for the AIP-SSM-20.

    The z will be 8 or 9 depending on the level of encryption.

    Thus, for example:

    CON-SU2-AS2A20K9 - would be 8 X 5 X 4 support for the ASA 5520 bundled with the AIP-SSM-20 with the top encryption.

    NOTE: There is also SP contracts for purchase by service providers who follow a slightly different format.

    There are a few users who have purchased the ASA and the AIP - SSM separately.

    When purcahsed separately you would need to purchase a contract SmartNET for the ASA and a separate Department of Cisco for IPS for the AIP - SSM maintenance contract.

    Maintenane AIP - SSM contract will be in the following format:

    CON-SUw-ASIPyK9

    The 'w' will be 1,2,3 or 4 depending on the level of service.

    'Y' will be 10 for the AIP-SSM-10 or 20 for the AIP-SSM-20.

    Thus, for example:

    CON-SU2-ASIP20K9 would be 8 X 5 X 4 support for the AIP-SSM-20.

    What you find is that buying a separate SmartNET for the ASA and Service Cisco IPS for the AIP - SSM will be more expensive than buying a single Cisco IPS's Service to the ASA/AIP-SSM bundle. This is because there is a discount when buying by the beam.

  • How to update the Signature of IPS

    Can someone help me with the steps in the upgrade of the signature of the IPS for ASA SSM - 20, IDS 4215 platform, WV-SVC-JOINT-2 via IDM and EMI. All sensors are already upgraded with signature S480 with engine E4.

    Can I upgrade the signature directly from S480 S507? Please let me know the file I need to download. Is there an impact by updating the signture as reboot?

    The steps to upgrade signatures via IDM/IME are listed in this document:

    https://supportforums.Cisco.com/docs/doc-12212

    Yes, you can upgrade to S507 S480

    Links to the correct files are also in the above document.  The IPS should not restart the upgrade.

    I applied the s91.zip file to the IDS MC version 1.2.3. It went well with no problem. The problem is all the attempts to transfer ftp of the s91.rpm.pkg by loogging to the individualsensors with the account admin CLI and issue the terminal 'configure' and upgraded ftp://user@IPadd//directory/ISD...rpm.pkg"returns with a message out"time ".

    Thank you

    When you log on to the service account, you use a unix bash shell (not the CIDS cli). Also, if you have an ssh server running on you high tower of the page (from your description, I think you do) then you have what you need to perform the upgrade of the scp. I will show two options:

    Option 1)

    (update directly from cell phone)

    -you will need to know the path to your file of package on your top of the Tower, in this example lets assume that you have a user defined as "sshU" ssh and the IDS*.pkg file is located in the directory sshU. Suppose also that your IP of your laptop is 10.1.2.3

    -connect the sensor with the admin account (you will use CIDS cli)

    -conf t

    -ssh host 10.1.2.3

    -Yes

    -scp on the rise:[email protected]/ * *//IDS-K9-sp-4.1-4-s91.rpm.pkg

    Option 2 (only if option 1 failed)

    -Connect with sensor as a service (you will use unix bash shell)

    cd/tmp

    -ftp 10.1.2.3

    -User:

    -Password:

    -cd

    -get an IDS-K9-sp-4.1-4-s91.rpm.pkg

    -quit smoking

    -output

    -connect the sensor with the admin account (guess sensor IP is 10.1.2.99 and service account name is 'service')

  • Security alerts on attacks of Signature IDS

    I received alerts of attacks IDS on my controllers such as reported by my WCS wireless. How can I stop these attacks?

    Really nothing more. Follow best practices and secure your wireless as best you can. If that creates the ACL in your infrastructure, then what you have to do. What we need to ask is how secure is your LAN. Can someone plug into a port in the lobby a get on your network? There are several ways to hack a network, simply attach as much as you can.

  • Installation of IDS OS on hard disc

    I have an IDS 4230 FE and downloaded the software following cisco IDS-42XX-K9-r-1.2-a-4.1-1-S47.tar.pkg, but I am unable to install this on my IDS sensor. Does anyone know how?

    This package will not install on a blank hard drive. It can be used only to convert existing recovery partition a race application partition.

    You will need a recovery CD and will have to start from the CD.

    To get a CD you would need an active Service Cisco for IPS contract of maintenance on the sensor, and then you can order the CD from recovery of $0.

    Understand that the IDS-4230 is not supported with version 5.0 and higher versions of IPS. It is supported only in respect of the IDS 4.1. And is no longer supported for new updates of Signature IDS 4.1.

    I'm not sure it's worth spending your time to get a picture of version 4.1 ID running on your sensor IDS-4230.

    Just make sure it is an IDS-4230 and not an IDS-4235. The IDS-4235 is a more recent and updated signing day always cared for and received.

    You would still, however, need a Cisco Service to date for the maintenance contract of IPS for the sensor to obtain the latest updates for the sensor.

    Have you applied the signatures of the CLI before using the IDs MC? If so, you will have to perhaps update via the CLI for S113, remove the probe from the MC and then add it again. This will get the update of the signature in sync.

  • RE: update IDS4210 to Signature S289

    Hello

    With respect to improving the network of the device IDS above, just read through the "Cisco IPS Active update Bulletin: 05/06/2007" which was sent to me he States:

    "The update of the signature S289 DO can apply to 5,0000 E1 version or later sensors as follows:

    "This update of the signature is taken in charge on the IDS 4210, IDS-4215, IDS-4235, IPS-4240, 4250-IDS, IPS-4255 and sensor devices IPS-4260 series.

    But to read the Readme file on the site it says:

    "The upgrade of IPS-GIS-S289-req file - E1.pkg can be applied to.

    the following sensor platforms:

    -Sensors, IPS-42xx Cisco Intrusion Prevention System (IPS)

    "- Intrusion (IDS) of Cisco IDS-42xx detection system sensors (except the IDS-4210, 4220-ID and ID-4230).

    What is the good?

    A little confused.

    It is a grey area.

    The IDS 4210 found end of sale December 6, 2003:

    http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/products/HW/vpndevc/PS4077/prod_eol_notice09186a008032d508.html

    By the strategy of Cisco, it will support updates the signature on a near-end sensor sales for at least 3 years from the end of sale. So update of Signature support was guaranteed by the policy only up to the last 3 dec 3006.

    http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/products/HW/vpndevc/PS4077/prod_bulletin0900aecd80358daa.html

    However, nothing has been done to intentionally prevent signature extract newer than Dec 2006 to be installed on an IDS 4210.

    I'm not aware of any project at this stage to intentionally prevent installation of updates of peg on a 4210 IDS.

    In addition, understand that politics is a minimum of 3 years, but I don't know how much longer, 3 years he would be officially supported.

    5.1 IPS software will continue to receive updates of signature for a period of 18 months, and it is possible that these GIS 5.1 updates will continue to be installable on a 4210 IDS.

    This confusion is probably why the 2 documents are not synchronized.

    In addition the signature update readme E1 was written for updates of 6.0 and IDS-4210 is not supported in 6.0. 5.1 versions did not pass to E1 only later. When the readme file has been updated to cover the two 5.1 and 6.0, it is possible that the change of platform support list (to add IDS-4210) was just gone unnoticed. So, I'm not sure if she was intentionally set no support for IDS-4210 or if it was a mistake of editing.

    Personally, I would recommend go ahead and install it (except off your config before moving just in case).

    If it installs OK (no bugs don't pop up during installation), then you should be fine works on your ID-4210.

    But if problems arise in the installation of an update future signature, then you click on this grey area. And I don't know what the answer would be if that were to happen.

    I'll send an email to our in-house team and see what the word "official" is on ID-4210 sig update support.

    However, I recommend that you go ahead and see about upgrading to a new model of sensor.
