Appendix E Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting the Appliance

Step 4 Initiate a manual block to a bogus host IP address to make sure the master blocking sensor is initiating blocks.

sensor# configure terminal

sensor(config)# service network-access

sensor(config-net)# general sensor(config-net-gen)# block-hosts 10.16.0.0

Step 5 Exit network access general submode.

sensor(config-net-gen)# exit

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

Step 6 Press Enter to apply the changes or type no to discard them.

Step 7 Verify that the block shows up in the ARC statistics.

sensor# show statistics network-accessCurrent Configuration

AllowSensorShun = false

ShunMaxEntries = 100

State

ShunEnable = true

ShunnedAddr

Host

IP = 10.16.0.0

ShunMinutes =

Step 8 Log in to the CLI of the master blocking sensor host, and using the show statistics network-accesscommand, verify that the block also shows up in the master blocking sensor ARC statistics.

sensor# show statistics network-accessCurrent Configuration

AllowSensorShun = false

ShunMaxEntries = 250

MasterBlockingSensor

SensorIp = 10.89.149.46

SensorPort = 443

UseTls = 1

State

ShunEnable = true

ShunnedAddr

Host

IP = 10.16.0.0

ShunMinutes = 60

MinutesRemaining = 59

Step 9 If the remote master blocking sensor is using TLS for web access, make sure the forwarding sensor is configured as a TLS host.

sensor# configure terminal

sensor(config)# tls trust ip master_blocking_sensor_ip_address

For More Information

For the procedure to configure the sensor to be a master blocking sensor, refer to Configuring the Sensor to be a Master Blocking Sensor.

IPS4520K9 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.
