Chassis Features

IME

The Intrusion Prevention System Manager Express (IME) 7.2.3 and later also support the IPS 4510 and IPS 4520. IME is a network management application that provides system health, events, and collaboration monitoring in addition to reporting and configuration for up to ten sensors. IME monitors sensor health using customizable dashboards and provides security alerts through RSS feed integration from the Cisco Security Intelligence Operations site. It monitors global correlation data, which you can view in events and reports. It monitors events and lets you sort views by filtering, grouping, and colorization. IME also supports tools such, as ping, trace route, DNS lookup, and whois lookup for selected events. It contains a flexible reporting network. It embeds the IDM configuration component to allow for a seamless integration between the monitoring and configuration of IPS devices. Within IME you can set up your sensors, configure policies, monitor IPS events, and generate reports. IME works in single application mode—the entire application is installed on one system and you manage everything from that system.
