Chapter 9 Configuring the AIP SSM

AIP SSM Configuration

The inline and promiscuous keywords control the operating mode of the AIP SSM. The fail-closeand fail-openkeywords control how the adaptive security appliance treats traffic when the AIP SSM is unavailable. For more information about the operating modes and failure behavior, see the “AIP SSM Configuration” section on page 9-1.

Step 7 Use the service-policycommand to apply the policy map globally or to a specific interface, as follows:

hostname(config-pmap-c)# service-policypolicy_map_name [global

interface interface_ID]

hostname(config)#

where policy_map_name is the policy map you configured in Step 4. If you want to apply the policy map to traffic on all the interfaces, use the global keyword. If you want to apply the policy map to traffic on a specific interface, use the interface interface_ID option, where interface_ID is the name assigned to the interface with the nameif command.

Only one global policy is allowed. You can override the global policy on an interface by applying a service policy to that interface. You can only apply one policy map to each interface.

The adaptive security appliance begins diverting traffic to the AIP SSM as specified.

The following example diverts all IP traffic to the AIP SSM in promiscuous mode, and blocks all IP traffic should the AIP SSM card fail for any reason:

hostname(config)# access-list IPS permit ip any any hostname(config)# class-mapmy-ips-classhostname(config-cmap)# match access-list IPS hostname(config-cmap)# policy-mapmy-ids-policyhostname(config-pmap)# class my-ips-classhostname(config-pmap-c)# ips promiscuous fail-closehostname(config-pmap-c)# service-policymy-ips-policy global
