Ironport Email - VRF(Routers) ou Context(ASA) equivalent

We have 5 costumers that filter their e-mails in our IronPort.
Everything is OK, Ironport and senderbase are beautiful!
But we are having some problems with bandwidth control.
Today the MX of their domain is the same ip address of IronPort, and we are only able to control bandwidth by IP address.
The solution that we used is a shared bandwidth limitation for this propose.
But we and the costumer don't like very much of that.
So we are looking for a way to force IronPort use different sources for each domain.
With that I can control the bandwith based on IP address.
Another, and better, solution would be something like VRF on routers world, or Context in ASA world.
Something like a virtual mini-ironport to each costumer.
Each one with their on Vlan, their on default gateway, rules and every thing else.
Any suggestion?

I'm feeling the stupidest in the world.
Reading IronPort 7.5 Advanced Guide I found the Virtual Gateway Feature.
Which solves partially our problem delivering and receiving e-mails with specific source addresses.
That will allowme to control the bandwith based on the IP addresses.
But allying "Virtual Gateway" with "Internal Vlans", I see that the solution that we really need is almost formed.
The only missing piece would by a per "Virtual Gateway" "Default Router(IP Gateway)".
With that I can put one InternalVlan into the respective servers vlan of each costumer, and Each Virtual Gateway will use the specific costumer gateway that is associated with their on VRF and FirewallContext(ASA).

Ironport Email Encryption及RSA Email Data Loss Prevention在Ironport中分别起哪些作用?

What are the functions do in both Ironport Email Encryption and RSA Email Data Loss Prevention in Ironport?

As noted there is no good solution. If it has never been backed up, then when you restore through iTunes on a computer, all of the information on it will be erased. Restoring it is the only way to get it working again.

IronPort email encryption config precedence

Hi,
I'm reading thru the IronPort Email Config Guide for Email encryption. I have noticed up to three different ways of requesting certain encryption parameters. I'd like to make sure I understand the order of precedence for these different methods, when multiple options are encountered for a given message.
For example, to configure Read Receipts on an outbound secure message:
a) I can configure Read Receipt in the Encryption Profile
b) I can configure a Content Filter to add an encryption header "X-PostX-Send-Return-Receipt" to the message
c) At the time of sending the message, from BCE app, I can select Read Receipt (or for certain attribuutes, I can use the CRES admin console and ask for the actions such as message expiration, etc)
So given the above methods for requesting a certain action, my understanding is that the order of precedence is:
c -> b -> a
That is, (c) overrides (b); and (b) overrides (a).
Is the above correct?
And as for (c), is it also correct to expect that the upcoming Outlook plugin release 7.3 will enable a desktop user to set the same flags on an outbound message as supported today in BCE app (such as requesting ReadReceipt, etc.)?
Thaks for any help.

Configure subinterfaces on a multiple context ASA.

hello,
i was just confuse. When do we need to configure subinterfaces on a multiple context ASA.
thanks

whenever you need to trunk to a switch and be able to have more than the limit of physical interfaces. For instance an ASA 5510 allows you to have 100 VLAN interfaces.
Whenever you need to setup more than on DMZ.

Add multi context asa to mars

when I try to add a multi context asa to MARS, I get error
Error occured during PIX multicontext discovery. More detailed info may be available under View Error button of individual context devices.
If you can not find detailed error info, please make sure 'hostname.domain-name' for each context device is unique"
So this mean I should change host name of each context in the ASA differrent to add to MARS ?
thank you,
Duyen

Hi duyendaica,
I try to answer, maybe you just need to add domain-name configuration in every context, not to change the hostname.
Thanks

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

Configure Encryption Notifcation Templates for IronPort Email Encryption

We are running a Cisco C100V Email Security Virtual Appliance and are going to start using the IronPort Email Encryption capabilities to send secure email to recipients outside of our organization.
I see under Mail Polices --> Text Resources that you can create an "Encryption Notification Template" HTML or text based that gives a general message to a recipient on what to do when they receive this secure email using this process.
Is there a way that I can customize that template a little more? I would like to add at least our corporate logo to that template just to make things more visible to the recipient who the message is coming from.
Ive tried to copy and paste the HTML code out and edit it throwing a <IMG> tag in with a URL as the source back to a logo I put in a folder on our public website however it didn't work.
Can this be done or am I just stuck with the dull as dishwasher framework of that template..?
Thanks.

Yes - you can edit the template to include the logo, or anything you wish --- standard HTML encoding applies...
Here - I have added in the Pittsburgh Pirates "P" logo --->

Wwan 3G/4G 4G LTE HWIC VPN (with dynamic ip)Configuration assistance to multi context asa

Hello All
I have a customer that has several sites all over the world and they want to use 3G and possibly 4G (where available) as a backup vpn solution.
I need some assistance/ guidance in configuring the cellular radio and configuring the vpn (dynamic ip)to work over the wwan.
Countries involved are France, Spain, Australia, Thailand and Malaysia.
I understand that I will need the APN credentials from the service provider. Is this normally the same for 3g and 4g?
Do I get chat scripts from them too?
My vpn gateway in the HQ is a Cisco multi-context asa so I can't configure remote access as its not supported yet. Can I possibly use the 1921 router(4lte hwic installed) at the sites as a hardware client?
I have seen the following urls. One has the 3g router as a "remote access" vpn but I guess this won't work in my scenario.
The other is between ios router and asa which I think will work. I don't need nat on the 3g/4g router as all traffic will be using the vpn.
http://www.networking-forum.com/blog/?p=708 . Will I need this for all the sub-interfaces I configure on the router
interface Vlan1

Ironport - email becomes garbled

Hello,
we are using Ironport (virtual appliance) and one email gets changed by the email gateway. The problematic message is a HTML email that is sent from a qmail MTA system. When the email flows through the Ironport gateway the HTML content isn't displayed correctly - raw HTML code is displayed.
I've tried to disable all the email Policies that could potenally influence the email but the problem persists. Additionally I've checked the source of the email and the only difference between the two emails is in the header - the email that goes through Ironport has one additional hop under "Received" part.
Do you have any suggestions what should be additionally checked on the Ironport virtual appliance ?
BR,
Jan

Hi,
I've created a TEST Mail Flow Policy that has all the security features disabled (Spam Detection, Virus Protection etc.). I checked with message tracking and the MFP is successfully used when the problematic email hits the appliance. Other stuff under message tracking also seem to be ok.
I've tried to send the email to gmail and also to the same MTA but this time bypassing Ironport, both times the email was displayed correctly.

BVI doesn't show up in multi context ASA

I have an ASA 5585 in transparent mode, multi-context. It seems that the option to configure a BVI in one of the traffic contexts isn't there. In other words, while I see the option to configure a bridge group interface in the admin context, no such option comes up in the traffic context.
ciscoasa/admin(config)# interface ?
configure mode commands/options:
BVI Bridge-Group Virtual Interface
Management Prefix of interface Management0/0
ciscoasa/admin(config)#
ciscoasa/admin(config)# changeto context dmz
ciscoasa/dmz(config)#
ciscoasa/dmz(config)# interface ?
configure mode commands/options:
Port-channel Prefix of interface Port-channel30.411, 30.412, 30.413, 30.414
ciscoasa/dmz(config)#
I thought that maybe I need to first allocate BVI interface(s) in the system context (in order to seem them in the traffic context) but that doesn't seem to be an option either.
ciscoasa/dmz(config)# ch system
ciscoasa(config)# interface ?
configure mode commands/options:
GigabitEthernet GigabitEthernet IEEE 802.3z
Management Management interface
Port-channel Ethernet Channel of interfaces
Redundant Redundant Interface
TenGigabitEthernet Ten GigabitEthernet
<cr>
ciscoasa(config)#
Has anyone seen this or know what the issue is? Thanks.

I think I figured it out. It seems that when you create a context, it is created in routed mode by default. So you have to explicitly go in and change it to transparent mode. Then the BVI interface shows up of course.

Emailing PDF attachment. Context is lost...

Hi Folks
In a previous post a asked about how to attach and send a dynamic PDF form.
In the following code I determine the Form Name, get the FORMOUTPUT and add it to an email attachment.
My problem now is that when I look in transaction SOST the attachment doesn't display any of the dynamic info supplied from the context.
Could someone please help to tell me how I need to include this.
 
Thanks

/1BCDWB/DOCPARAMS and /1BCDWB/DOCXML are both generated by default when I create a form from within SE80 in a Web Dynpro View. The Interface gets generated automatically when linking the form to my context on the Web Dynpro View.
fp_docparams-... gets filled:
fp_docparams-langu = 'E'.
fp_docparams-country = 'ZA'.
fp_docxml is of type xstring and is now being filled by the PDFSource binary in my context. (Although this isn't yet producing results)
I still don't see where I can add more parameters to the Interface in Tx SFP. I am in Change Mode, but find no option to add Parameters.
If I do manage to add more parameters, how will I link these in my Form because I can't see the Parameters when in the Layout view of the form in Tx SFP..
Thanks again. Do you have any other suggestions?

Ironport email appliance : can i use a wildcard cert for TLS ?

Hi all,
We have 2 ironport C170 email appliance. I would like to use a wildcard SSL Cert from Digicert for TLS communication. I have 2 questions about it :
1/ Is it possible to use wildcard certificat on ironport ?
2/ Is there any known problem with wildcard certificat for TLS use ?
I found 2 (old) post about that :
https://supportforums.cisco.com/discussion/10479161/tls-support-wildcard-cert
http://www.symantec.com/connect/forums/someone-wants-enforce-tls-us-and-use-wildcard-cert
Does someone has experience about it ?
Thanks.

My experience is that it works fine.
If you have multiple domains, you have to make sure that the MX records point to the A record of the box you have certs for.
eg. something like this:
mx domain1.com smtp.domain2.com
mx domain2.com smtp.domain2.com
a smtp.domain2.com x.x.x.x

Odisendmail - Different email address for different context. Flexfields?

Hi
I am using odisendmail to send error alerts in packages.
I want to set up odisendmail to send to one email address in DEV environment and another email address in Production.
I would like to set up odisendmail to take email address from a user defined variable of some kind, so that when I run the packages under DEV context I get one address and when I run under PROD context I get another address.
I think I need to use flexfields for this, but I can find very little infor on this in documentation.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can achieve this?
Thanks in advance
Tradtshirt

That is OK too... and quite easy once you wanted to do at design time...
Just create a query like:
Select case when '<%=getContext("CTX_NAME")%>' = 'YOUR_DEVELOPMENT_CONTEXT'
====== then '[email protected]'
=== case when '<%=getContext("CTX_NAME")%>' = 'YOUR_PRODUCTION_CONTEXT'
====== then '[email protected]'
from dual
quit the '==' used just to indent the command
And put this variable in refresh mode inside the package. (as the select is "from dual" you can set any logical schema - oracle in this example)
Does it help you?

Command line installation options for Ironport Email Security Plug-in

We're getting ready to implement email encryption with our C160. I want to deploy the Outlook plug-in to my users using SCCM. According to the administrator guide I should be able to do this however I have downloaded the current version of the plug-in and it doesn't seem to support the command line options described in the administrator guide. Specifically the /f1 switch (page 3-17 of admin guide) used to pass the setup.iss file doesn't work. This command is then referenced to be used for the distribution package in SCCM. I'm trying to use CiscoEmailSecurity-7-1-1-002.exe.
Am I missing something? Or has something changed in the deployment method? Thanks for your help.

Hi Scott,
Can you include the exact syntax your using?
it should look like this,
Start /w CiscoEmailSecurity_7-1-1-002.exe /s /v /qn /f1"J:\install_711002.iss

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?
