RTT

round-trip time. A measure of the time delay imposed by a network on a host from the sending of a packet until acknowledgement of the receipt.

rack unit. A rack is measured in rack units. An RU is equal to 44 mm or 1.75 inches.

Secure Shell Protocol

security context

Switch Configuration Protocol. Cisco control protocol that runs directly over the Ethernet.

Simple Certificate Enrollment Protocol. The Cisco Systems PKI communication protocol that leverages existing technology by using PKCS#7 and PKCS#10. SCEP is the evolution of the enrollment protocol.

Security Device Event Exchange. A product-independent standard for communicating security device events. It adds extensibility features that are needed for communicating events generated by various types of security devices.

Accepts requests for events from remote clients.

Protocol that provides a secure remote connection to a router through a Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) application.

You can partition a single adaptive security appliance into multiple virtual devices, known as security contexts. Each context is an independent device, with its own security policy, interfaces, and administrators. Multiple contexts are similar to having multiple standalone devices. Many features are supported in multiple context mode, including routing tables, firewall features, IPS, and management.

Security Monitor	Monitoring Center for Security. Provides event collection, viewing, and reporting capability for
	network devices. Used with the IDS MC.
sensing interface	The interface on the sensor that monitors the desired network segment. The sensing interface is in
	promiscuous mode; it has no IP address and is not visible on the monitored segment.
sensor	The sensor is the intrusion detection engine. It analyzes network traffic searching for signs of
	unauthorized activity.
SensorApp	A component of the IPS. Performs packet capture and analysis. SensorApp analyzes network traffic for
	malicious content. Packets flow through a pipeline of processors fed by a producer designed to collect
	packets from the network interfaces on the sensor. SensorApp is the standalone executable that runs
	Analysis Engine.

Service engine

service pack

session command

SFP

Deals with specific protocols, such as DNS, FTP, H255, HTTP, IDENT, MS RPC, MS SQL, NTP, P2P, RPC, SMB, SNMP, SSH, and TNS.

Used for the release of defect fixes and for the support of new signature engines. Service packs contain all of the defect fixes since the last base version (minor or major) and any new defects fixes.

Command used on routers and switches to provide either Telnet or console access to a module in the router or switch.

Small Form-factor Pluggable. Often refers to a fiber optic transceiver that adapts optical cabling to fiber interfaces. See GBIC for more information.

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.
