VCS CPL rule filtering of IP addresses

Hi all

I have a CPL script which change each alias entering Internet alias AutoAttendant MCU.

But I would like to allow known, identified by their IP address, websites to call directly to the internal endpoints.

I found, I can check with a

but I coulnd find how to test IP Address. Only aliases are checked.

Do you know it is possible to filter endpoints with CPL, based on IP address?

Regards,

Guillaume

As far as I am aware, there is no way to filter by IP address in the reduced CPL that is implemented on the VCS/Expressway.

Is there a reason why you can't filter by alias instead of IP address? When it comes to hacking, spoofing IP addresses is just as easy as aliases, so that really does not provide any additional layer of security.

I would probably just add additional rules for each alias you want to have the ability to call inside, or if they are coming from a specific domain, the (.*)@domain will be a catch all to those from another expressway or equivalent.

Otherwise, if you must use IP address filtering, you would have to do it in the firewall, by making a set of rules to block all IP addresses, then making another rule for the desired IP address, set it to allow, and make it higher priority than the first rule. Then delete your CPL.

I would probably not go that direction, as it would be very limiting, and the firewall rules in the expressway are a pain to configure. (also would still leave you vulnerable to IP address spoofing)

  • CPL in VCS - E rules

    Hello!

    I tried to help a customer implement some CPL rules to allow some users to accounts jabber.com to call and reject others.  I use the rules of Configuration call political policy rule to call add, and call POLICYMODE is set to Local CPL.  I think the rules are quite simple, but the VCS is by allowing calls get through.  At some point, I just had the following rule;

    Schema of the source - (. *) @jabber.com model of Destination. * Action - Reject

    My account jabber.com calls were always connect.  I made a mistake with regular expressions?  Is there a problem with the implementation of CPL on the VCS?  Here are the features concerned;

    Thank you!

    Hello Bob.

    If I understand the exact problem, you're using the web interface in the VCS and CPL not creating a CPL script yourself?  If so, the web interface only really works authenticated sources, not external non-authenticated sources, such as Jabber.com.  You must create a custom script of CPL to accomplish this, the web interface uses 'origin' where she must use "non-authenticated-source", because originally is intended for authenticated sources.

    Attached is a CPL script according to your example, I threw as well, it will work with VCS X 8 or higher.  If you are running VCS X7.x, that the language in the script must be changed.

  • VCS - CPL to block call routing to and from the same area of neighbor

    Hi all

    Is there a CPL rule that can be written to block calls from a neighbouring area to the same area of neighbor?

    We have problems with CUCM sent appeals to the our VCS VCS then routes the call return CUCM, causing thus "too many jumps."

    In the example

    MOVI user control VCS try to compose endpoint registered RTC CUCM, but incorrectly dials

    Appeal does not have to search for the terms of local area

    Call does not match search for VCS Expressway rules

    Call corresponds to captures all of CUCM (. *) @domain.com

    CUCM does not form DN or URI for the wrong phone number and the call is routed to the VCS control due to the SIP routing model of *. * on CUCM

    We have to capture all CUCM at the end, since we offer PSTN, as well as our users and phones have the alphanumeric URIs assigned to the DNs for Jabber, etc.

    I fear that he is not really an easy way to do it, I know because the call charged CPL first, CPL don't know what area it was intended for.

    It's probably more easily accomomplished with a slight modification to your rules of research rather than spraying anthing "@domaine" everywhere - something like:

    Anything incoming directly at @domaine in the nearby area of the local area (as is inside your organization, such as if the CUCM not found and sent it to the VCS he won't be on the CUCM, so must be local (or nonexistent) - and stop.

    And the opposite of the above - route whatever it is for @domaine of the localZone.GetDaylightChanges (because it was not found locally) to stop and the CUCM neighbour-

    And do similar for what is coming from other areas outside to route to wheverver that will be endpoints.  In this way, your call should not be bouncing back between the CUCM and VCS and create the loop that you are currently experiencing.

    Of course, if your environmetn is a little more complex than the simple CUCM and VCSes, this can be a bit oversimiplified, but could lead you in the right direction.

    Another thing to consider too - if you put in your endpoints in a directory, users can use - that will help you to prevent wrong type stuff :)

  • Cisco VCS and composition to an IP address

    I have a question about the composition of address Ip and VCS. In the Administrator's guide, he says that VCS determines that an IP address that will be called if it is:

    -is the IP of a locally registered endpoint

    -Beach one of the subzone of address membership rules is the responsibility of intellectual property

    The second point is that of interest. As part of the way in which it is presented, I take this means that if a subarea membership rule has a range of IP addresses that includes the address of a non-registered endpoint then VCS will still attempt to place the call to the endpoint not registered regardless of the setting "Calls for unknown IP addresses" (under the numbering plan). For example,.

    Assume the end point has (EP - A) is enrolled in a VCS control that is configured to use the mode indirectly for "calls to unknown IP addresses. The idea here is that there is a highway of VCS. Suppose that there is an end point (EP - B) on the internal network that EP - A wants to call. EP - B is behind the firewall, but it does is not registered in the VCS - C. Finally, suppose the SCV - C has a subarea (let's call it "Internal-Unregistered") with a membership of 10.10.10.0/24 rule.

    Now, if the address IP of EP - B is 10.10.10.10 and EP - A dials by IP, will be the call successfully established? Based on the Administrator's guide, the VCS will see the EP - B IP as "known." The Administrator's guide does, really, that the call would be placed. I'm stuck sorta messaging RAS, since EP - B would not be exchanging messages with the VCS - C RAS.

    I also wonder about calls from unregistered endpoint. EP - B could call EP - A directly. I don't want to support this behavior in the design (I recommend rather using the numbering of the URI. I am considering set up the Alias of relief on the VCS - C to channel calls from unknown devices to an attendant on the MCU. Regardless, what I was asking is the following:

    If I have a membership rule subarea as above and EP - B sends a message of call setup to the VCS - C, the VCS - C would still see the call as coming from the default Zone of the local area? The reason I wonder is because of the way the Administrator's guide defines "known IP addresses.

    Thanks in advance.

    Kind regards

    Hi Bill,

    to answer your question about the first scenario (where EP at dials the address IP of the EP B), VCS would attempt to place the call if there is a rule of type search 'AnyIPAddress' for the local area on the VCS - C (and assuming that the previously mentioned subzone containing 10.10.10.0/24 exists). VCS would be in this case send a message of CONFIGURATION H225 EP B.

    For the second scenario, where EP B contains the IP of the EP, EP B would send that an INSTALLATION H225 EP EP a. message would then for the message INSTALLATION with an INSTALLATION containing a reason 'routeCallToGatekeeper", instructing EP B to dial the address IP of VCS instead, since the VCS want to be included in the call, signaling path.

    To answer your last question, with regard to the area in which a call of an endpoint not registered (when the IP address of endpoint belongs to a subnet-type subfield) comes on, the answer is that the appeal turns on the default Zone. Calls will be local area if the call comes from a real end point recorded.

    I hope this helps.

  • VCS CPL block call between subareas

    Hello

    I'm looking for, it is possible to create a script to block calls between the sub-areas, I mean, I don't want to, for example, that sales of subarea may call for subzone Marketing.

    I do not have different Alias prefix, the prefix aliases are the same in the two Subzones, is possible to block call due to the IP address or the name of the subfield?

    In the CPL extensions xsd file and the XSD of CPL file I have found no topic block by IP address or between subzones.

    I could find the following example script:

    *****************************************************************************************+

    "xmlns:TAA ="http://www.tandberg.net/cpl-extensions"

    "" xmlns: xsi = "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

    xsi: schemaLocation = "urn: ietf:params:xml:ns:cpl cpl.xsd" >

    *******************************************************************************************

    But only to block calls between DefaultZone and DefaultSubZone.

    Thakns in advance.

    Best regards.

    Hello

    at the time where the CPL is treated, the location of the destination device is not yet known, and we cannot therefore CPL decisions based on the zone of destination or of the subzone.

    To work around this problem, you can for example use a prefix/syntax unique to each subarea, so that you can identify implicit destination/subzone area according to this prefix/syntax.

    It would be also possible to 'outsource' this decision-making process with the use of political Service, which is a service area that can be highly customized. The external policy server could for example have a SQL database containing information on all your devices and their associated area/sub-area and base its decisions on the information which includes the VCS on the pseudonyms of source and destination for a given call, as well as a variety of other measures.

    http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/docs/Telepresence/infrastructure/VCs/config_guide/Cisco_VCS_External_Policy_Deployment_Guide_X7.PDF would be a great starting point if you want to deepen the policy Service.

    Hope this helps,

  • Tandberg VCS Expressway - rules of appeal policy

    Dear all,

    We are currently deploying DNS resolution on the highway to VCS, and it works as expected.

    However, we would like to block an outside party to call our VIP users, so we are set up the rule of the appeals policy.

    According to the help page of VCS, both the Source and Destination are supported by regular expressions.

    But we found that the strategy of appeal rule is not as planned.

    For example, we have configured

    Schema of the source: [email protected] / * /

    The destination model: [email protected] / * /

    Action: allow

    As a result, the user [email protected] / * / is not able to call the endpoint ex60domain.com.

    Does anyone face the similar problem? Or someone has the recommendation on this matter?

    Best regards

    Ben

    As Andreas mention, you can use the CPL to control call of endpoint not registered by CPL following (just quick example)

    ===============================================================

    "xmlns:TAA ="http://www.tandberg.net/cpl-extensions"

    "" xmlns: xsi = "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

    xsi: schemaLocation = "urn: ietf:params:xml:ns:cpl cpl.xsd" >

    ===============================================================

    Another solution is to use the new dial plan search rules introduced in X7.2 release.

    Registration of endpoint of VIP in separate subfield and create specific search rules.

    With X7.2, you can configure the search rule detail as called Protocol and source subfield level targeting specific subfield level.

    Please see page 35 of https://supportforums.cisco.com/docs/DOC-26316.

    (But this little yet complicate when call comes e - VCS to VCS - C where VIP registered endpoint).

  • Turn off filtering by MAC address

    Hi, I recently got WIFI for my house. I want to use wifi on my ipod touch but even when I add and connect to my network with the password. I can't use wifi and applications that require a connection. Most people say that I have to turn off my MAC address filter to make my ipod touch can access the internet. Thank you.

    MAC address filtering is enabled or disabled in your wireless router.  It is disabled by default and would be activated only if you have explicitly configured the router like this.  See the user manual of your router for more information, or tell us the router brand and model number.

  • Configure filtering of MAC address on WRT54G - nothing links

    I created MAC address filtering on the wireless router.  5 MAC addresses added to the ALLOWED list, by selecting from the available devices.   Saved the changes.  Now, none of the machines can connect to the access point.  This includes the PC that I use to connect and administer the access point.  I plugged the network cable directly to my PC to manage the router/access point.  Still not able to connect.  That's happened?  How can I go and turn off this nonsense.  I know that MAC filtering is moot wrt efficiency, but I decide to try it.

  • Filtering of MAC addresses

    I'm currently setting up a new 1240ag access point and I would like to do MAC address filtering on them, but I seem so difficult to get the machines to connect. I can activate the filter and some computers will connect and then some will not be. I do reboots take the filter out of the internface and reapply but no dice. I have it if I can get two clients to connect, but when I add third No... But if I power down the two originals and restart the third I can connect but if I bring the two original back up, they do not connect. I enclose a copy of my config. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. The access point is located right next to the laptop.

    Two things

    one: MAC filtering is not supported with WPA authentication. I couldn't find the reference that it is one of the notes of 12.3.

    two: it is in the notes of version authentication WPA is not supported with energy saving enabled in the client wireless from this link.

    http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/docs/wireless/access_point/iOS/release/notes/b38jarn.html#wp47132

    Three: Authentication MAC is more work that it is worthwhile for most WIFI cards support MAC local address.

  • Filtering of IP addresses on an IDS/IPS signature

    Forgive me, I'm pretty green when it comes to signatures manipulting IDS/IPS.

    Is there a way to filter an IP or a subnet of a signature of IDS/IPS?

    Senario:

    We have 2 ASAs with IPS and IDS 2 4260 modules, we use IPS Manager Express 6.1 to manage. I get a mail server is triggering signature 5748-x because its sending a helo instead of a noop verb. It is very good for this paticular mail server. So I would remove its IP address or its signature of the filter IP address therefore in this case does not the signature.

    I wonder if VCS Expressay made a sort of control in the nearby areas.

    For example: I want to restrict the neighboring area to perform not more than 2 simultaneous calls.

    Best regards

    You can restrict the overall bandwidth used for these calls, but not strictly the number of calls.

    For example, if your bandwidth standard appeal for your organization is 768 Kbps and you want only 2 calls is nearby at the same time, you create a pipe which has a limit of 1536 kbps total bandwidth and ask the hose for the link to this neighbor.  Links and tips is all two found in a VCS Configuration--> menu of bandwidth.

  • How to turn off filtering to connect to a printer by MAC address?

    original title: MAC address filtering?

    I'm trying to connect an hp photosmart wireless on my new computer printer, a print says that if I have active filtering by MAC address I should add to my list of devices allowed for wireless router. I am a beginner and do not MAC how to turn off the printer.?

    All devices in the world that can connect to a network has an address unique identification enter the MAC address.  (This has NOTHING to do with Apple products - although they will also have mac addresses.)

    Your printer will be on documentation and probably on the box.

    Most routers have the ability to allow only the addresses specified MAC communicate through the router.  If you do not have this filtering enabled in your router then you need do nothing.  If you have enabled mac filtering, then you must type the address of the printer in the appropriate in the router configuration page.

    There is nothing on the printer '' disable'. (sic)

  • Address MAC WUMC710 problems when using MAC filtering

    I recently bought the point WUMC710-HQ AC wireless to connect to my router EA6500.  Generally, the WUMC710 seems to work.  I was able to connect to the router wirelessly on the 5 GHz band and flow EA6500 a NetFlix video with no problems.

    However, there is a major problem that comes makes no logical sense for me:

    When I turn on the wireless MAC address filtering of the EA6500, the WUMC710 does not connect to the EA6500router.

    Yet, I 8 eight other wireless devices on my network which connect very well to the EA6500 when the MAC address filtering is enabled.  Thus, the question seems to outright to WUMC710.

    The address printed on the product shipment to the ends of the box with numbers XX:1 d.

    This address matches the address printed at the bottom of the WUMC710 MAC. (normal)

    My EA6500 router recognizes this MAC address as the correct MAC associated with the WUMC710 (when MAC filtering is enabled).  But as soon as the MAC filtering is turned on, the WUMC710 does not recover to the router. (I checked the MAC address, that I walked into the filter at least a dozen times, and she entered correct - but all my other wireless devices connect OK).

    This is a point that seems strange on the MAC address associated to the WUMC710:

    When I am able to connect to the WUMC710, State--> tab Device illustrated the right address MAC I use to filter.  But when I check the status--> network wireless tab, it displays the MAC address wireless like: XX:1E.

    So, now, I try to get into this 'new' MAC address in the MAC of the router EA6500 filter just to see if it will work with this MAC address "without papers" of the wireless device.  At first, it seems to work.  The WUMC710 of blue light will come on indicating that a wireless connection has been established with the router.  BUT nowhere in the web interface of EA6500 says that the WUMC710 has a DHCP connection with the router.  And, if I connect my laptop directly to one of the WUMC710 Ethernet ports, there is no connection to the Internet via the router (as long as the MAC filtering is enabled).

    I did Factory Reset a few times now and no difference.

    Firmware is the factory default - it is there no update of the firmware available, yet.

    I spent several hours trying to understand what is happening with this device and go round and round in circles in trying different things.  I can only conclude WUMC710-AC is defective, or requires a firmware fix - but none are available.

    Am I missing something here?  Or Cisco does suggest a fix for the firmware for the WUMC710-AC?

    (I don't really like to run my network wireless MAC address filtering active wireless.)

    Kind regards

    Jeff

    Cisco-Linksys 2 support with me today confirmed what I thought it was a possible firmware bug, is actually undocumented features of the WUMC710, by design.  And they agreed that they will update the documentation for WUMC710 to take account of these features and system requirements.

    Just like a reference to new users of the WUMC710 AC wireless bridge, I will summarize here the requirements for WUMC710 wireless bridge to work properly with the router, Cisco-Linksys AC6500 Wireless, when MAC filtering is enabled.  If all goes well, this information will save some other people the many hours I spent to dig through the documentation and the FAQ to try to understand what it takes to connect successfully devices behind the bridge of WUMC710 to the AC6500 router - when the MAC address filtering is enabled:

    The following MAC address must be entered in the AC6500 router table filtering of MAC addresses to connect devices behind the bridge WUMC710 wireless to the Internet:

    1. The MAC address of the bridge wireless WUMC710 wireless.
    2. The address MAC LAN of the WUMC710 bridge.
    3. Addresses MAC LAN of each LAN device connected to the LAN Ports of the WUMC710 bridge.

    That in a few words.

    With this information, devices behind the WUMC710 of Internet connection (with the active MAC filtering) is a breeze.
