Clustering options for FirePOWER SSP-40

What are the option for clustering Firepower SSP-40?
ASA 5585X with 2 node cluster, is it possible to have a single cluster for IPS service also ?
Concers are , how is the IPS module handling the Asymmetric situation...?
Cisco ASA 5585-X with FirePOWER SSP-40..

What Cisco was missing imo was the NG Firewall features that everyone has had for years.  I recently upgraded my 5585 SSP60 based firewalls with the SSP-SFR60 modules.  So far I'm fairly impressed, the package does what everyone else does, currently still testing a number of items however what I could do with a Palo or something from SonicWall I can now do with my ASAs.
First Accessible from Same GUI: Not on the 5585s, if I open ASDM for the 5585s, there are no configurations that I can see available, essentially under my admin context I see three tabs, one of which is ASA Firepower Status, there is a link I can click on and it takes me to DC URL.  I do hear you can configure for the smaller firewalls though.  Possibly because I use MC and A/A I might be missing it. Honestly though DC seems to be a very powerful tool so I'm fine with two management systems as they both serve a different purpose, ASA controls ports allowed to pass, and the traffic that passes gets filtered.
Logging and Events: DC has an immense amount of information, urls being visited, ips, responding countries, pretty much everything is here.
Am I satisfied?  Yes, items that bothered me was built in URL filtering, file analysis, Geo Location Filtering and numerous other bells and whistles that I noticed $1000 sonicwalls had, the CX platform never caught my eye for some reason, and I'm glad I never bit the bullet, EOL10154, so if I implemented CX I'd be in a situation where I would need to replace it.  Sourcefire was a fairly successful company that Cisco bought, and I don't see cisco throwing away 2.7 Billion Dollars so I can see this being around for awhile.
I'm still exploring but so far what everyone else has had for years, I finally have with my ASA and I'm happy.  It does work, and it works well.

  • Oracle White Paper- Storage Option for RAC. on Linux

    hi..
    This in reference with White Paper.. Stotage Option for RAC on LINUX. Author- Umadevi Byrappa.
    Which states on page 10: To Use NAS for RAC database file storage select the file system storage option in OUI. or the Clustered file system storage option in DBCA.
    With which i disagree. File storage option of oracle 10g RAC only shows.
    1. Clustered File system.
    2. ASM
    3. Raw Devices.
    When i try to select Cfs and select the shared directory on NFS it says. < Directory_Name> is not a clustered file system or Shared on Both <Server_1> < Server_2>. and at this point of time i m stuck.
    1. I dont want to use OCFS as its not supporting NAS.
    2. Selecting CFS doesnt recognise mounted shared volume as valid storage device option can only store OCRfile and CSS file.
    3. So, I have to use ASM.. with zero padded files..which i dont want to because no other option. ( PART NO. B10766-02 PAGE C-6)
    Also, I would like oracle to provide Back up Recovery Option or Document which tells me how could i Recover Database when i use Zero Padded Files.
    What would be the best Option in the above scenario ?
    I hope by applying patch or with workaround somehow it shows Filesystem ONLY.I'll be the happiest man in this Case.
    Any suggestions and corrections are most welcome. I wish i m wrong.

    NFS isn't a clustered file system at all - by RFC it is an exported file system with access controls
    If your vendor offers an NFS solution over and beyond that - more power to them. However that isn't "NFS"..
    http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc3010.html
    You can use NFS in a clustered server environment (to mount apps, read only data and for synchronous access to files), however it doesn't support the concurrency out of the box for RDBMS transactions - if a vendor is supporting this promise then that is for you to decide.
    However i stand by my statement that NFS is a file system exported across your network and not a full clustered file system.

  • Mail clustering options greyed

    On a clean/default Lion Server install, I see this, when I press the Change... buton next to the Clustering option in Server Admin:
    Anyone know why the bottom two options would be greyed out?
    Rusty

    Hi
    AFAIK in previous versions of OS X Server Mail Clustering was not supported unless you had a SAN product. I could be wrong but I don't think it would work with anything other than XSAN?
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/MailServicesAdmin_v10.6.pdf
    Page 82.
    For lack of any thing else coming from Apple themselves it looks like this is still the case with Lion Server? I think the best advice I could give you is to either wait and see if forthcoming updates changes available functionality, or revert back to Snow Leopard Server and wait until Lion Server becomes operational in the way it is hoped it will be. As well as waiting for any further documentation to be made available.
    You may also want to consider other Mail Server products instead?

  • I cannot see the option for face time of open and close in iphone 4s

    Plzzz tell me no facetime option for on and off is nott comming in settings help me plzzz

    There is no FaceTime app for the iPhone if that's what you're asking.  FaceTime is accessible through your Contacts as one of the options in how to contact a person -- there is no standalone FaceTime app for iPhone.
    If you mean how to disable FaceTime, you can do that in Restrictions (Settings/General/Restrictions).

  • Needing a multi-month and year-in-view option for ical!

    Hello all!
    I could really use a multi-month and year-in-view format in ical... I've seen some dated posts - is anyone aware of any new developments/options for this?
    thanks and peace-
    DW

    I turn off all calendars but the birthdays. Select [Print]. Choose all the months you want to see. Deselect all calendars but birthdays. Click [Continue]. On the next menu, go to "Layout", select how many pages to print on the paper. I usually print a border around each calendar then you're good to go!
    By only printing the birthdays calenar, you won't get too many appointments to get in the way of brain storming and future planning, yet the computer still thinks its printing a useful calendar.

  • BODS : Datastore options for SAP R/3 - need clarity for use

    Hi All.
    Another request to understand the datastore optiono n BOXI 3.1 BODS existing installation.
    We are trying to pull a new table from SAP R/3 into BODS and we find that ABAP program is not getting generated as expected. And terminates. When we tested a simple workflow.
    While creating a new datastore for SAP R/3 Source :
    When we look at the datastore we find the following options for R3 Source ;
    ABAP Execution option :
    Execute preloaded
    Generate and execute
    Under data transfer method we find ;
    Shared directory
    Direct download
    FTP
    Custom transfer
    Then we have working directory on sap server
    local directory
    generated ABAP Directory
    Am testing a simple workflow of pulling data from SAP R/3 in a dev machine.
    But am not understanding.
    which option of ABAP Execution, and data transfer , path would work in co-ordination.
    Because when i say direct download and say generate and execute it throws error.
    Can anyone help me with combinations of the options to choose for a R/3 source. And the implications thereof.
    I had created a folder under local bods server D:\Bodi. And given the path for data transfer.
    But the files are not getting generated for whatsoever reasons.
    Any advise on this would be helpful.
    Also found a bit unusual, that there was no button to test the connection to be correct or not, a TEST connection button is not there. Which i felt, could be included.
    Note : on the existing production system, we have chosen execute preloaded; shared directory on sap server. and shared that folder path for the user and given full rights. But while we try to do the same on the dev machine a test before transporting on production, a simple workflow does not work.
    would like to know what settings on sap server, really affect the data store options on the BODS
    thanks

    Indeed, BODS <> SAP connectivity can be tricky.
    For a development environment, I suggest you select the option "Generate and execute" for your "ABAP Execution Option." What this means is that DS will create, on the fly, small-ish ABAP programs. These ABAP programs will be written, in plain text, to a local directory on the DS job server, in the folder specified in "Generated ABAP Directory".  You can see them in there after an attempted job execution, assuming the job involves the creation of an ABAP program.  The ABAP program name is specified in the properties of an ABAP data flow, under Options > ABAP Program Name.  If you can't, perhaps the DS job server process doesn't have full rights to that folder - ?  After being generated on-the-fly, they'll be transferred to SAP to execute.  The SAP user you use to connect to SAP must have sufficient rights to upload-and-execute these ABAP programs, and that's a fairly substantial set of rights. What's required is documented in the BODS supplement for SAP. Often, to get things running, your friendly local Basis admin will grant SAP_ALL to the DS user, to see what rights are being invoked.
    Once all that jazz is working, you need to get the data back. There are a number of ways to do this. The method of data transfer is specified in "Data transfer method," where, ignoring "Custom transfer," you have three choices:
    1) Direct Download: easiest and slowest.  This method tells SAP to attempt to stick data in the client-side folder specified in "Local directory." Try this first.
    2) Shared folder: This is recommended when you have SAP being hosted on a Windows box. Basically: you set "Working directory on SAP Server" and "Data Services path to the shared directory" to point to the same folder.  SAP uses the "Working directory on SAP Server" to find this folder, and DS uses the other setting. So, for instance, if you were going to use the Shared folder method, you could set "Working directory on SAP Server" to "E:\BODS_Transfer", and, assuming E:\BODS_Transfer was shared-out as "BODS_Transfer", you could set "Data Services path to the shared directory" to
    dev12.somecompany.com\BODS_Transfer .  Then, you'd need to setup all the relevant security, as both SAP and DS need rights to read and write files in this folder.
    3) FTP (this is the method I usually use): SAP writes the "transport files" you're after (i.e., the data) in the folder specified in "Working directory on SAP Server". Then, you need to establish ftp connectivity to that folder from the DS job server's perspective, which you do by entering the ftp host name and the path to that folder in "FTP host name" and "FTP relative path to the SAP working directory".  In my opinion, the "relative" business is a little confusing, and I just typically enter the full ftp path, beginning the path w/ a forward slash, like "/usr/sap/tmp/BOBJ" or something like that.  You also need to obtain a separate username and password for the ftp connectivity. Note that this name and password has NOTHING to do with the SAP username and password; you're just setting-up DS to act as an ftp client. I strongly encourage you to test ftp connectivity by using a regular ftp client from the DS job server and attempt to connect to your ftp host using the username and password you were given, and attempting to fetch some sample test file. If you can't do this, manually, then DS won't be able to do it, either.
    Best wishes,

  • Can't see pricing options for Creative Cloud. :'(

    Two things, Adobe:

When I try to click the "See All Plans" button on this page (Cloud-based software and services for creatives | Adobe Creative Cloud) I'm taken to a blank page (except for the unhelpful footer).

  • How do I use my iPad with Retina Display model MD514LL/A with apple tv? I see no option for airplay and I have the latest update.

    I am having trouble mirroring my ipad with my new apple tv. I don't see any options for airplay. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    Is your apple tv also up to date?
    Are they both on the wireless network, or is the apple tv using an ethernet cable?
    Reboot your wireless router, your apple tv, and your ipad, in that order.

  • Is there a key on the MacBook Pro to toggle display options for a projector

    I have had some difficulty getting my InFocus projector to consistently work correctly with my MacBook Pro. Is there a key on the MacBook Pro that toggles the options for projector display? There was one on my last MacBook and my previous PowerBook.
    Thanks -
    Dudley Warner

    No, there is no longer a key to control external display modes (it's F7 on my 1st gen MBP, but the option was removed along with the embedded numeric keypad in the Early 2008 models). There's not a substitute keyboard shortcut (with the exception of installing a macro player like Keyboard Maestro). Your main option is System Preferences > Displays (as stated, ticking the box to show Displays in the menu bar provides a helpful shortcut).

  • Set maximum size in Text Form Field Options for a field in bi publisher RTF

    Hi All,
    How to set maximum size in Text Form Field Options for a field in bi publisher RTF.
    I have a RTF whch is having a field in that i need to add some validation condition but after adding certain condition in Add help text tab ,it is not accepting after certain length, how i can increase the length to unlimited,please help me on this
    Thnaks

    Form fields have some restrictions if your are using version lower than 11g.
    They can accommodate only 393 chars. You can add the text in both status bar and help key, which can in total consume 393 chars.
    If your code logic is more than that, it can be split into multiple form fields as Avinash suggested or you can use sub template logic and handle coding over there. Again in sub template code can be within/outside form fields.
    So there is no option for user to increase the size of form field.

    If DU reports errors it cannot repair you will need touse autility like TechTool Pro,Drive Geniusor DiskWarrior
    First we need to determine if the issue you are experiencing with the computer is software or hardware based. Once we have gotten things sorted out there should be time enough to make you decision about keeping or returning it.

  • How do I remove a credit/debit card from my account? I ask because I currently have a VISA gift/debit card with 50 dollars on it, but the money has run out so I want to usea new card. Also, there is no 'None' check option for payment type on my account.

    Depending on how you created your account, "None" may or may not be an option. I believe it has something to do with whether the account was made through an App Store request or the regular iTunes Store. For example, my account allows no card but my father's doesn't allow there to be no card.
    To change the card, go to your account settings and change the information to your new card, and hit save.

  • Default option for password in UME

    Hi,
    Is there a way that when we create new users in UME, that the default option for password management is set to "Disabled Password" in stead of "Define Initial Password".
    We are using SPML SOAP message to create the users and if there is no password in the SPML messgae, the user is created, but no logon is possible as the system expects that you should have a  password.
    We will like to avoid sending in the password as part of user creation process, as these users will have to be created with no password. These users will never do a basis authentication, but  are needed for SSO using HTTP header variable..
    Thanks,
    Vikrant sud

    Is this a portal or what?
    On the ABAP side this is possible, so I would expect the Java APIs to offer the same.
    Looking in the PASSWORD structure is the wrong place, try the LOGONDATA (if it is done the same way). If you activate it in the call it should delete the PASSWORD regardless.
    Sorry, I have an ABAP mentality... but consistent APIs make it easier (to have to understand less concepts) and SAP increasingly does this.
    Cheers,

    Yeah, I'm having the same exact problem - It seems that the thunderbolt minidisplay port is only able to output the analog VGA signal, not the digital signal to support DVI and HDMI. This is a bug that came up after installing 10.7.1. I bought my macbook air with 10.7 on it, upgraded it to 10.7.1 as soon as I got it, so I have never been able to use hdmi or dvi with my macbook air. This is an extremely frustrating problem for me, I used HDMI on a daily basis with my PC. I have spent many hours at the genius bar running diagnostic tests so Apple can get as much information as possible to create a fix for this problem. I have been emailing tech support for 3 or so weeks now, they keep saying that they are working on a fix and it should be out soon, but 10.7.2 has come and gone and I still have no HDMI functionality with my MacBook Air!
