Chapter 17 Administrative Tasks for the Sensor

Terminating CLI Sessions

Step 5 Remove the banner login. The banner no longer appears at login.

sensor(config)# no banner login

Terminating CLI Sessions

Caution You can only clear CLI login sessions with the clear line command. You cannot clear service logins with this command.

Use the clear line cli_id [message] command to terminate another CLI session. If you use the message keyword, you can send a message along with the termination request to the receiving user. The maximum message length is 2500 characters.

The following options apply:

cli_id—Specifies the CLI ID number associated with the login session. Use the show users command to find the CLI ID number.

message—Specifies the message to send to the receiving user.

If an administrator tries to log in when the maximum sessions have been reached, the following message appears:

Error: The maximum allowed CLI sessions are currently open, would you like to terminate one of the open sessions? [no]

If an operator or viewer tries to log in when the maximum sessions are open, the following message appears:

Error: The maximum allowed CLI sessions are currently open, please try again later.

To terminate a CLI session, follow these steps:

Step 1

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

 

 

 

 

 

 

Note

 

Operator and viewer can only clear lines with the same username as the current login.

 

 

 

Step 2

Find the CLI ID number associated with the login session.

 

sensor# show

IPS4510K9 specifications

Cisco Systems has long been a leading player in network security, and its IPS (Intrusion Prevention System) series is a testament to its commitment to safeguarding digital environments. Among its notable offerings are the IPS4510K9 and IPS4520K9 models, both designed to provide advanced threat protection for mid-sized to large enterprise networks.

The Cisco IPS4510K9 and IPS4520K9 are distinguished by their cutting-edge features that help organizations defend against a myriad of cyber threats. These systems utilize a multi-layered approach to security, integrating intrusion prevention, advanced malware protection, and comprehensive visibility across the network.

One of the primary characteristics of the IPS4510K9 is its high performance. It boasts a throughput of up to 1 Gbps, making it suitable for environments that demand rapid data processing and real-time responses to threats. The IPS4520K9, on the other hand, enhances that capability with improved throughput of up to 2 Gbps, accommodating larger enterprises with heavier network traffic. These models are equipped with powerful processors that support complex signature matching and can intelligently distinguish between legitimate traffic and potential threats.

In addition to performance, both models are designed with scalability in mind. They can be easily integrated into existing Cisco infrastructures. This facilitates a seamless enhancement of security without causing significant interruptions to ongoing operations. Moreover, they offer flexible deployment options, allowing organizations to operate them inline or out of band depending on their specific needs.

The Cisco IPS4510K9 and IPS4520K9 leverage advanced detection technologies, utilizing a variety of signature types and heuristic analysis to detect known and unknown threats effectively. They are equipped with real-time alerting and reporting capabilities, giving security teams immediate visibility into potential breaches and enabling them to respond swiftly.

Furthermore, both models support a range of management options through the Cisco Security Manager, allowing for centralized administration, streamlined policy management, and enhanced monitoring capabilities. Automated updates ensure the systems remain current with the latest threat intelligence, vital for staying ahead of evolving cyber threats.

In summary, the Cisco Systems IPS4510K9 and IPS4520K9 represent powerful solutions for organizations seeking robust intrusion prevention capabilities. With their high performance, scalability, and advanced detection technologies, these systems are essential tools in the ever-changing landscape of cybersecurity, providing enterprises with the peace of mind needed to operate securely in today's digital world.
