Update of the signature

• IPS module will not download updates to the signature.

  Hi all

  I have a Cisco ASA 5512 - X with the IPS/CPU module. I'll try to get the device to download updates of the signature but am encountering problems. I have a valid cisco.com user account concluded the GUI to activate this feature, but the download updates never really.

  Is there a way to manually apply the updates of the signature?

  Why updates will not download automatically? The device can ping from public servers for example 8.8.8.8

  Please let me know if there is smoehting I am doing wrong, or if you want the order details/see configuration etc. Everything else seems to work very well, traffic is spent actively through the probe.

  Thank you very much

  The IP address of management must be able to access the internet. So make sure routing is in place. There is not a way to make use of other interfaces, I know.

  Thank you

• DPS 2015 Build releases - must update us the signature tool?

  Every 3 weeks, a new build is released to 2015 DPS with new features and bug fixes.  When these new versions are released, should update us our signature tool and any other active provided Adobe DPS 2015 we can use?

  No need to update the signature only tool, it rarely changes. If/when he does it's usually just to provide better error messages for the signature of the errors we see in nature, no not to change the kernel that underlie the signature mechanism.

  If an update of the signature tool is necessary it would be listed in our notes.

• 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.

• Why all the signatures of retirees?

  In a few upgrade (es) fairly new signature, Cisco withdrew hundreds of signatures. Updated GIS removes these signatures? Is there a list of them somewhere?

  There are 2 sets of the system configuration:

  (1) the default configuration - the update of the signature update

  (2) user tunings - "sig0" - that replaces what is in the default configuration

  If a configuration option is included in both the default and "sig0", then everything that is "sig0" is which will come into force.

  (NOTE: to see what works in "sig0" just 'see the conf')

  If a signature is "retired true" in default, then the user can change the signature "false retired" in "sig0" in order for active/Kimbo.

  Once the user puts in 'fake retirement' then it will always be 'no removed' without worrying about what Cisco puts in the default configuration.

  You can even prevent a future retirement of signatures.

  If a signature is currently 'fake retirement' and is active, you can always go forward and add 'former false' in 'sig0 ". The configuration in "sig0" and by default, both list the signature as "fake retirement."

  BUT if later on Cisco changes 'true' signature retreat you will always have 'retired false' in "sig0" and your 'fake retirement' will cause the signature to stay active.

  In this way, you can force a signature is always active regardless of what a signature update is.

  As for your question of ' don't they be retired after each update of the signature?

  The answer is no.

  By default will contain 'true retirement', but if you put "false to retirement" in "sig0", then it replaces the 'true retirement' in the current default value as well as the new default values for new signature updates.

• Automatic update of the NM-CIDS

  Salvation;

  We have a 2811 with module NM-CIDS. How can I automatically update the IPS signatures. There is a menu through which he asked username, password and an IP address. Username and password are OK, but what is the ip address. How can I configure it to auto update...

  And is there anyone know how often does cisco renew IPS signatures...

  The sensor (NM-CIDS in your case) is not able to automatically pull new updates of signature of cisco.com.

  The automatic update function is to allow the sensor (NM-CIDS) to automatically pull new updates of signature of one of your own internal ftp or servers of the scp. You will need to download the new files from cisco.com and place them on your ftp or scp server manually. Your own ftp or scp server ip address is the IP address in the configuration.

  Now the CSM (Cisco Security Manager) IS able to automatically pull new updates of signature of cisco.com. CSM can then automatically put your probes to them. So if you want automatic downloads of cisco.com, then you'll need to buy the CSM to manage your sensors.

  How many times the new signatures are released?

  The longest time between updates of signature will be approximately 2 weeks. It depends on how the latest vulnerabilities are. If a new vulnerability of bad news comes out, then the update of the signature is sent to report promptly to this vulnerability. Otherwise signatures for several flaws are coalition and get sent on a more regular basis between 1 and 2 weeks since the last regular update.

• 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.

  Kind regards

  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.

  Your error message indicates "HTTP connection failed."

• 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.

  You must upgrade the IPS module to the latest version first before that you can update the signature. The current version of 7.0000 E1 software is very old, and the latest available version is now 7.0.5a (E4). E1 engine is very old and is not compatible with the signature that runs on the E4 engine.

  Here are the release notes for 7.0.5a (E4):

  http://www.Cisco.com/Web/software/282549758/50172/IPS-7_0-5A-E4_readme.txt

  You need to upgrade the module running at least version 5.1 (6) E3 before you can upgrade to 7.0.5a (E4).

  Once the IPS module has been upgraded to version 7.0.5a (E4), you can update to the latest signature.

  I hope this helps.

• 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.

  Good luck!
