Ironport C170 Email Security Appliance - No Upgrades Available Error

Hi All,
I have a pair of IronPort ESA C170  with Async OS version 7.6.2-014. one of them displayed two versions that are available for upgrade:
7.6.3 & 8.0.1; however , the other appliance displays "Error - no available upgrades". 
So we tried to open the link : http://updates.ironport.com/fetch_manifest.html 
updated the serial number information for the first one and it displayed the two versions ( 7.6.3 & 8.0.6 ) successfully and it didn't display anything when i put the serial number of the second appliance.
The Problem clearly that we cant upgrade the second appliance.
So Appreciate to share your experience on this.
Thanks,

You will need to open a support case so that we can get your serial number of the appliance, review to make sure it is in the correct upgrade provisioning group, and then also work with you direct to assure that you have the correct network settings to reach the updater servers.  
You should be able to open a telnet session from the CLI on the appliance(s) to downloads.ironport.com on port 80, update-manifests.ironport.com on port 443...
8.0.1 is the latest GA release - and will be the last available hop in upgrade paths.  So, if the appliance is on 8.0.1, then there will be no further upgrade availability currently for the appliance.  If you are needing to get to 8.5, which is FCS, you'll need to request provisioning through a support request.

  • About CPU utilization value of ironport C370 email-security-appliance

    Hello all,
    What is the normal / abnormal value for the following parameters of ironport C370 email-security-appliance ?
    total active recipients
    active messages in work queue
    CPU utilization

    Each appliance would be a little different based on the expected mail processing, throughput for your environment/domains... and then throw in which processes you have turned up (IPAS, AV, VOF, etc.)...
    Typical C370 (running 8.0.1) should be able to handle:
    1. ~18 +/- recipients/sec
    2. average workqueue ~ 462 
    3. average CPU utilization of ~ 91%
    The #s vary, again, based on what you have enabled and licensed.  You would be well suited to open a dialog with your Sales Ops/Account team, as they have means to determine the proper numbers and outcomes for your environment.
    I hope this helps!

  • Cisco Email Security Appliance (ESA) - Reporting

    In previous versions on ESA you could export data and reports in CSV formats using an API. Is that still available?
    >From the following document :
    IRONPORT ASYNCOS 6.4 REPORTING API FOR IRONPORT APPLIANCES
    REPORTING API OVERVIEW
    The Reporting API feature allows you to download the same data collected by the Email Security Monitor component of the IronPort Email Security appliance or Security Management appliance in a comma separated value (CSV) format. This format allows users to integrate the IronPort appliance's data gathering capabilities into other IT and business reporting systems. 
    DOWNLOADING REPORTING DATA
    You can retrieve the data used to build the charts and graphs in the Email Security Monitor feature via HTTP. This is useful if you plan to perform further analysis on the data via other tools. The data is available in standard comma separated value (CSV) format. The easiest way to get the HTTP query you will need is to configure one of the Email Security Monitor pages to display the type of data you want. You can then simply click the Export... link to initiate the download process.

    It went away, there's a new one (RESTful) in 9.0/9.1

  • 2 ironports email security appliance redundancy

    Hi,
    I have two IronPort ESA C160 devices and would like to cluster them for redundancy. My question is:
    When the devices are clustered, is there a cluster IP address (not an interface on either device) which is created which emails from Exchange can be routed to? Since only 1 of the 2 devices will be active at any given time, how can Exchange distingiush which Ironport device to route to?
    Any assistance would be greatly appriciated.

    I see your IP is listed as 200.40.148.74
    Checking Senderbase, not seeing any issues relating back to your side:
    http://www.senderbase.org/lookup/?search_string=200.40.148.74
    Changes recently to DNS?  Hostnames resolve, reverse DNS?  Domains correct and resolvable?  SPF in use... any changes, is it correct?  DKIM, same - any changes, is it correct?
    Originating MX?  Any changes of late to local mail or ISP?
    Normally the 421 error is a temporary block due to issues seen coming from your address/originating IP.  Issue still persist?

  • BUG #CSCur27131 - Evaluation of CVE-2014-3566 on Cisco Email Security Appliance

    I have raised a support case with TAC to try and get more information on the preferred config as well as what Ciphers then become available. Points raised in the support case are as follows:
    Current config based from existing artilce pre-POODLE > MEDIUM:HIGH:-SSLv2:-aNULL:@STRENGTH
    Should the new config be > MEDIUM:HIGH:-SSLv2:-SSLv3:-aNULL:@STRENGTH
    Use of strength meaning that the Ciphers are ordered and presented strongest to weakest as negotiation should occur at the first mutually accepted cipher.
    What are the TLSv1 Ciphers used by Ironport (verify under sslconfig CLI appears only to list SSL ciphers)
    Finally, does the Ironport support or plan to support in the future TLSv1.1 and TLSv1.2 ciphers?
    Response from TAC so far is the same as the referenced article - https://tools.cisco.com/bugsearch/bug/CSCur27131 which doesn't address all my points
    Paul

    Negating SSLv2 and SSLv3 in the cipher suite has no effect as long as only enabled TLSv1 is enabled.
    And reordering ciphers by strength won't bring anything since the client's ciphers order will always be preferred.
    Also, MD5 should be disabled as it's widely considered too weak for the job.
    My recommendation would be to use the following suite > HIGH:MEDIUM:!aNULL:!MD5

  • Cisco Ironport Email Security inline with Microsoft Forefont

    Hi,
    We are going to deploy Cisco C370 Email security appliance as new email relay in our DMZ. Currently Microsoft Forefont is already doing the same functionality and new Ironport email security appliance will be added as 1st layer of email security. 
    I would like to know what are the changes that we should consider in this deployment in order to forward mail to Forefont, is there any specific configuration on both products and what is the best method of deployment etc.
    Also I would appreciate if there is any Cisco/Microsoft documentation available for such deployment senario.
    thanks in advance.

    Hello pemasirid,
    as far as I can see from your description is that you add the ESA C370 as an additional gateway, so I would say there is little you need to change in your current network design. As this is all about SMTP getting forwarded, you basically just need to take care of the following things:
    On Forefront: Allow injections from the ESA(s) and forward all outbound messages to the ESA
    On the ESA(s): Insert the Forefront IPs into the RELAYLIST of the private listener to allow outbound messages. Also set up an SMTP route to forward inbound messages to the Forefront server.
    Also change public DNS to point to the public IPs of the ESAs, in case they are different from what you have used before
    A good starting point for deploying would be the Quickstart Guide for C370, that you can find in the support section for email security on Cisco.com. Also, the user guide, which is also available on the GUI of every email appliance (GUI: Help and Support -> Online Help).
    Hope that helps,
    Andreas

  • Email Security Plug-in - Doesn't seem to work with right click or save and send

    I've searched the knowledge base but have not located the answer yet.
    We have the Encrypt Message plug-in installed to flag the email [SEND SECURE].  This works very well when in Outlook.  It does not seem to work when right clicking a file to send outside of Outlook or performing Save and Send from within Microsoft Office.  The add-in still shows and users are clicking it and the Send button but the emails are not going securely.  We are on Microsoft2010 on mostly XP machines.
    How can I get Encrypt Message to work in all instances?
    Thank you.

  • Used a Subject Alternative Names certificate with an ESA IronPort C170

    Hi all,
    Is  someone know if it is possible to use a "Subject Alternative Names" Certificate (SAN / UCC SSL) for an Email Security Appliance C170.
    Is it possible to do this, with an IronPort ?
    Thank you very much, for your reply.

    Hello RYAN,
    Thank you for your reply, It is a very good new for us.

  • IRONPORT e-mail security, encrypted e-mails problem

    Hi there,
    we have recently purchased CISCO Ironport E-mail and web security devices.
    I have configured e-mail security, and I want to encrypt an outgoing e-mail. When I send that e-mail I receive a reply:
    #< #5.0.0 smtp; 5.x.3 - PXE Encryption failure. (Message could not be encrypted due to a system configuration issue. Please contact your administrator.) (delivery attempts: 0)> #SMTP#
    I checked internet but couldn't find anything useful. Can someone point me in a good direction please? I don't know where to look now.
    Regards,

    Do you have a valid CRES account created for your company/domain, and the appliance SN tied to that CRES account?
    If not -
    In order to provision encryption profile(s), please initiate an email request to [email protected] with the following information:
    1. Name of account: [Please specify the exact company name, as you require this to be listed.]
    *If this is for a Hosted customer account, please notate the account name to end as ["<Account Name> HOSTED"]
    2. Email address(es) to be used for the Account Admin: [Please specify the corresponding admin email address]
    3. The complete serial number of ESA appliance(s): [ANY/ALL SERIAL NUMBER(s)]
    4. Any/all domains for the customer account that should be mapped to the CRES account for administration purposes.
    *If there is an already provisioned CRES account, please provide the company name or CRES account number previously used. This will assure that any new appliance serial numbers are added to the correct account, and avoid any duplication of company information and provisioning.
    Appliance serial numbers can be located from the GUI 'System Administration -> Feature Keys', or appliance CLI by running the command 'version'.
    Requests sent to [email protected] will be handled within normal business hours. A confirmation email will be sent once the serial numbers are registered or new CRES account provisioning is completed.
    Once completed - from the GUI, revisit 'Security Services -> Cisco IronPort Email Encryption -> Email Encryption Profiles', and re-click "Re-provision". This will then complete as "Provisioned".
    Also - have you stepped through the following?

  • Encryption is now part of the Email Security forum

    With the release of AsyncOS 5.5.0 for Email, the encryption feature is integrated into the Email Security Appliance. We've integrated the Encryption forum into the Email Security forum to reflect this change.

    Setting up encryption to be applied to outbound email that gets relayed through the Ironport appliance is quick and straight-forward. In a matter of minutes, you can get this feature up and running. Contact Ironport technical support if you have any questions or comments on how to use the encryption feature.

  • Email security and AMP ( Sourcefire ) integration

    Hi,
    According to public release from cisco :
    http://newsroom.cisco.com/release/1354516/Cisco-Adds-Advanced-Malware-Protection-to-Web-and-Email-Security-Appliances-and-Cloud-Web-Security?utm_medium=rss
    There is now integration of AMP into the email and web appliance. I cannot find any information regarding versions or licenses needed to take advantage of this functionality. If customer is sitting on a Sophos license today for example, will AMP be an addon or replacement of this license ?
    Any info is appreciated.

    Hi Daniel,
    We announced the software integration at RSA last week. It will be available as a feature in the next 2 to 4 weeks as FCS code (First Customer Ship.) It will be a separate software license for the cloud inspection and a separate license for the cloud sandboxing. It will not be included in any existing licenses. This is the upcoming 8.5.5 version of AsyncOS.
    In the mail pipeline it will come after Anti-Spam and Anti-Virus engines and before Content Filters and Outbreak Filters. You will be able to do Content Filter inspections and actions based on AMP results.
    Also at RSA we announced the integration of Web Categorization and Web Reputation technology from the WSA into the ESA. This will be included as part of the Outbreak Filters license. Web Reputation is embedded into the anti-spam engine and Outbreak Filters. Web Categorization is available as a condition and as an action in Content Filters. You can do actions such as defang, re-write to Proxy, or replace URL with text or any other Content Filter action such as drop or quarantine messages with Adult or Pornographic category URLs. This is the 8.5.0 version of AsyncOS and is available today as FCS code.
    Please work with Cisco TAC to have your devices provisioned for 8.5.0 FCS code if you wish to test.

  • Ironport C170 hard disk orange light problem

    hi,
    I have a new C170, there're 2*250G hard disk ,RAID 1, I had see the specification ,C170 support hot-swappable.At first, both hard disk is green. but when I remove one of them, and then install back soon, The hard disk light change to orange, but the system still can operate.
    May I know this hard disk is bad? In fact, C170 isnot support hot-swappable hard disk?
    Thanks a lot!!

    Found on Cisco Website..to insert the drive the unit needs to be off. The light is amber while the RAID array is being rebuilt. Read below.
    The Raid on the Cisco Web Security Applicance S170 or Cisco Email Security Appliance C170 is software based, it is hot removable but it is not hot insertable.
    The drive can be removed while the power is turned on, so as to be certain which drive LED indicates failure.
    The replacement drive should not be inserted, while the power is turned on.
    Procedure:
    1. Confirm which drive that has failed, by looking at the front panel drive LED that is amber/red.
    LED
    besides
    0
    refer to the
    bottom drive
    failure and needing replacement.
    LED
    besides

    refer to the
    top drive
    failure and needing replacement.
    2. While the power is turned on, press the button for the drive cage, to release the faulty drive.
    3. Shutdown the Security Appliance
    4. Insert the replacement drive into the drive cage.
    5. Power on the Security Appliance
    The Replacement drive will have amber light on it, while the raid is being rebuilt.

  • Ironport c160 email encryption

    I understand and support the automatic encryption of our outbound emails.  In an attempt to possibly make it better, is there any method using our existing C160 email security appliance that can warn the sender that a message will be automatically encrypted prior to it going out?  Doing so could allow the user to choose to have it encrypted or not.  We have a subject tag "!m" that the user can type to force unsecured... but many times they have to do this after the fact they get an email from the C160 saying that the email was encrypted.

    Yes - 7.3 version of the plug-in supports Outlook 2013:
    (c/o: http://www.cisco.com/c/dam/en/us/td/docs/security/iea/Compatibility_Matrix/IEA_Compatibility_Matrix.pdf)
    Click here for the Plug-in downloads.  You will need a CCO login to access the downloads.
    As for the complaint against "encrypts a message without warning" --- that just really starts to get into end-user education of what is active in the environment.  If you have DLP in play on the appliance, and one of the set defined policy is Privacy Protection -> ABA Routing Numbers, then the appliance is only doing it's job, as you have configured.  If the end-users should be sending through a relay/outbound mail flow policy, and you don't want that group/end-users to be susceptible to the DLP  scanning, you'll need to configure them into an outgoing mail policy that doesn't have DLP enabled... or, has DLP enabled but not ABA Routing Numbers.
    Using the plug-in and allowing the end-users to decide if they want to encrypt/not encrypt is only going to be the initial reaction of that end-user.  With the plug-in, you may be removing the need to use the subject line encryption flag in order to provoke encryption, but any/all mail from that end-user through the ESA will still be susceptible to the configuration and encryption actions set.  
    You should leave the subject line trigger in place (either via message filter or content filter) - but, be sure to re-educate the end-users that may be using the plug-in to fully understand the right/wrong as you intend encryption to be handled.

  • Ironport C170 Relay outgoing Email to External Server

    We have a new Ironport C170 and am only using the appliance for Encryption/DLP.  We wish to have incoming and outgoing Email to flow through this appliance.  All incoming Email will be relayed to our Exchange Server and all outgoing Email will be relayed to our SAAS Email Filtering System for processing and delivery.  The incoming part I believe is configured correctly but am having issues figuring out how to relay all outgoing to a specific domain in the cloud.
    Any assistance would be greatly welcomed,
    Stephen

    Hi Stephen,
    You can control all the outgoing mail from SMTP Route configuration, if is in GUI menu > Netowork > SMTP Route.
    You can define the route to next hop based on destination domain, as for default - all other domains (this is the one that goes to SaaS) you can enter your cloud SMTP address and the port number there.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks,
    Donny
