Chapter 7 Defining Signatures

Working With Signature Definition Policies

Use the service signature-definitionname command in service signature definition mode to create a signature definition policy. The values of this signature definition policy are the same as the default signature definition policy, sig0, until you edit them.

Or you can use the copy signature-definition to make a copy of an existing policy and then

source_destination command in privileged EXEC mode edit the values of the new policy as needed.

Use the list signature-definition-configurationscommand in privileged EXEC mode to list the signature definition policies.

Use the no service signature-definitionname command in global configuration mode to delete a signature definition policy. Use the default service signature-definitionname command in global configuration mode to reset the signature definition policy to factory settings.

Creating, Copying, Editing, and Deleting Signature Definition Policies

To create, copy, edit, and delete signature definition policies, follow these steps:

Step 1 Log in to the CLI using an account with administrator privileges.

Step 2 Create a signature definition policy.

sensor# configure terminal

sensor(config)# service signature-definition MySig

Editing new instance MySig. sensor(config-sig)# exit

Apply Changes?[yes]: yes sensor(config)# exit

Step 3 Or copy an existing signature definition policy to a new signature definition policy.

sensor# copy signature-definition sig0 sig1

sensor#

Note You receive an error if the policy already exists or if there is not enough space available for the new policy.

Step 4 Accept the default signature definition policy values or edit the following parameters:

a.Add signature definition variables.

b.Configure the general signature options.

Step 5 Display a list of signature definition policies on the sensor.

sensor# list signature-definition-configurations

Signature Definition
Instance	Size	Virtual Sensor
sig0	255	vs0
temp	707	N/A
MySig	255	N/A
sig1	141	vs1
sensor#

Step 6 Delete a signature definition policy.

sensor# configure terminal

sensor(config)# no service signature-definition MySig

sensor(config)# exit
