Ironport S170 (7.5.0): Where is SOCKS proxy configuration?

Dear all
We are just just deploying our first two S170 appliances and I am not able to figure out where to set up SOCKS proxy configuration.
I am really afraid that this feature doesn't exist, although http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/vpndevc/ps10142/ps10164/aag_c45-716641.pdf states "It can proxy HTTP, HTTPs, SOCKS and native FTP traffic [...]".
So where do I have to look for the SOCKS proxy or is it really not there?
BTW, the box came with software version 7.1 and during my search for the socks feature I have tried the update-button and ended up with a software version 7.5.0-833 now.
Any hints welcome.
Grischa

OK, I have just read the announcement of version 7.7 which is supposed to include the SOCKS proxy (so prior versions does not, right?).
BUT, either the webGUI and the CLI are telling me that there are "No available upgrades".
Thus, my actual question might be this one:
Where do I find the upgrade to version 7.7?

  • Ironport S170 and Microsoft RADIUS

    I'm trying to setup management logins for the IronPort S170 using RADIUS.  I have the Windows server configured and the server information is in the S170, but I'm having trouble with the Group Mapping.  Under the RADIUS Class Attribute, what is an example of something that would go there?  Is it an AD group?  If not, is it some attribute number that I need to configure on the AD user object?  If so, where?  TAC has no idea how to do this. 

    This error occurs when the user’s account is not stored in reversible encryption.
    CHAP requires that the secret be available in plaintext form. CHAP cannot use irreversibly encrypted password databases that are commonly available. If the RADIUS server does not have access to the plaintext password, it cannot perform the one-way hash to verify the user and the authentication will fail. By default, Microsoft Active Directory does not store user accounts with reversible encryption.
    Reversible encryption is a user class attribute and is not enabled by default in the Active Directory. You must enable this setting manually on each account or through Group Policy Objects when dealing with multiple users.

  • IronPort S170 WSA - Max file download size

    Hello,
    we're using an IronPort S170 WSA. Downloading big .iso (maybe other files, too) files fails. As far as I can find out, files of 2300MB or less can be downloaded, files of 3300MB or bigger fail to download (I haven't been able to try files with sizes between 2300MB - 3300MB). Using the same client without using the IronPort as a proxy, the download of the big files succeed.
    The web page error message indicates:
    Blocked by [companyname] Web Proxy
    Category = Allowed%20URL%208080
    WBRS Value = -
    DVS Verdict = -
    DVS Threat = -
    So, I assume there is a setting in the IronPort that prevents the download of files exceeding a size limit. But I cannot find any config item that controls this. Does anyone know where this setting can be found?

    Do you get an instant block for large files?  Or does it try to download for a while, and then fails?
    If it is an instant block, it should be under Web Security Manager > Access Policies.  Look in the object types section.
    If you are downloading for about an hour and the downloads stop, it may be authentication related.

    Hi,
    You can upgrade to 7.7+ but if you require a root cause analysis I suggest you to open a TAC case.

  • Cisco IronPort S170 Access Logs are filling up the HDD

    We have a Cisco IronPort S170.
    The access logs have filled the HDD to 91%
    The device is taking a serious performance hit.
    It now takes 5 minutes per click if I'm lucky.
    I have accessed the device via FTP and am about to copy off all of our AccessLogs.
    Once this is completed is there a way to wipe only the accesslogs from the device?
    Via FTP the transactions seemed to be read only
    I was looking through the CLI, but wasn't sure which command to use.
    Thanks,
    Brian

    When you FTP to the device, and CD to the appropriate directory path - are you not able to mdel the files?  Are you accessing the appliance via FTP as an admin level user?

  • Bug? Socks Proxy not taking effect for SocketChannel

    I find there's something not working when setting socks proxy in my java application.
    In java api there's such introduction about socks proxy setting:
    (from http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/net/properties.html)
    SOCKS protocol support settings
    The SOCKS username and password are acquired in the following way. First, if the application has registered a java.net.Authenticator default instance, then this will be queried with the protocol set to the string "SOCKS5", and the prompt set to to the string "SOCKS authentication". If the authenticator does not return a username/password or if no authenticator is registered then the system checks for the user preferences "java.net.socks.username" and "java.net.socks.password". If these preferences do not exist, then the system property "user.name" is checked for a username. In this case, no password is supplied.
    socksProxyHost
    socksProxyPort (default: 1080)
    Indicates the name of the SOCKS proxy server and the port number that will be used by the SOCKS protocol layer. If socksProxyHost is specified then all TCP sockets will use the SOCKS proxy server to establish a connection or accept one. The SOCKS proxy server can either be a SOCKS v4 or v5 server and it has to allow for unauthenticated connections.
    I am using java.nio.channels.SocketChannel to do packets trasferring, and I've caught all the packets with Ethereal, but I find there's no packets to the socks proxy.
    What I use in the application is as below:
    System.getProperties().setProperty("socksProxySet", "true");
    System.getProperties().setProperty("socksProxyHost", socksProxyHost);
    System.getProperties().setProperty("socksProxyPort", socksProxyPort);I do this above before the connection issues. The connection lines are belows:
    SocketChannel s = SocketChannel.open();
    InetSocketAddress addr = new InetSocketAddress("daisho.waaaghtv.com",  10383);
    if (s.connect(addr)) {
      System.out.println("Socks Proxy Complete!");
    }else {
      System.out.println("Socks Proxy Failed!");
    }But every time it prints me "failed" message. I am sure that I can use the socks proxy to connect to daisho.waaaghtv.com:10383.
    My shortened program is:
    import java.net.InetSocketAddress;
    import java.nio.channels.SocketChannel;
    public class socketTest {
      public static void main(String[] args) {
        try{
          System.getProperties().setProperty("socksProxySet", "true");
          System.getProperties().setProperty("socksProxyHost", "166.111.70.13");
          System.getProperties().setProperty("socksProxyPort", "1080");
          SocketChannel s = SocketChannel.open();
          InetSocketAddress addr = new InetSocketAddress("daisho.waaaghtv.com",  10383);
          if (s.connect(addr)) {
            System.out.println("Socks Proxy Complete!");
          }else {
            System.out.println("Socks Proxy Failed!");
        }catch(Exception e) {
          e.printStackTrace();
    }The printed message is:
    java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out: connect
         at sun.nio.ch.Net.connect(Native Method)
         at sun.nio.ch.SocketChannelImpl.connect(Unknown Source)
         at socketTest.main(socketTest.java:12)I can find very limited help from internet, hope you could help me.

    But it's stated surely both in the 1.4 API and 1.5 API that it supports socks proxy by simply setting the system properties.
    I set socksProxySet to be true because I've found it from internet, but, yup, it seems useless.
    You mean the only way is to implement the socks proxy in my code? I know there is (or was, whatever) some open source project that is on this kinda topic, but ain't there a simple way?

  • Authenticating to Socks proxy using different accounts in a given JVM

    I have a J2EE application that runs some background jobs. Each of these background jobs need to connect to an external FTP server. However, all connections must go through a central SOCKS proxy server. The SOCKS proxy server is set up to require authentication using user names and passwords. Everything works fine if I've to use this SOCKS proxy with "a set" of credentials across all background jobs. However, if I want Job1 to use "user1" for SOCKS login, and Job2 to use "user2" for SOCKS login, I can't seem to find a way to do this. I need this functionality for accounting purposes. Any help on how this can be accomplished is greatly appreciated.

    Looking at the test class, it creates 3 threads T1, T2 and T3. T1 is setup to connect to 192.168.1.53 using a proxy user User-001 and T2 is setup to connect to 192.168.1.54 using proxy user User-002 and T3 connects to 192.168.1.55 using proxy user User-003.
    Each thread then loops 5 times to connect to their target servers and disconnect each time. All the debug (System.out) statements indicate that the getPasswordAuthentication is returning the correct credentials for each thread. However, when I look at the logs on the proxy server, the results are different and arbitrary.
    Below is the proxy log:

    As you can see from the first line in the log, the proxy says User-001 connected to 192.168.1.54, but the code should always connect to 192.168.1.53 with user User-001.
    Any idea on what might be going

  • Using Content Engine for SOCKS Proxy

    We have a CE566 integrated with an ICAP server in a proxy role for our network.
    we are experiencing issues with a Java applet that many of our users use with an outside vendor.

    The trace log shows SOCKET connections via ports 80 and 443
    failed.

    Does anyone have any information in regards to using the CE as a proxy in this regards? I have obviously found command language for http; https; and ftp - but nothing for other methods

    The site he's accessing required SOCKS proxy. The ACNS does not support SOCKS.

  • Arch as a router... through a socks proxy

    I have my arch box acting as a gateway on my local network, is it possible to tunnel all the traffic that goes through the box through a socks proxy?
    I want to be able to proxy things like my phone and xbox
    Thanks!

    You want to utilize an upstream SOCKS proxy? I doubt it, you'd be better off setting up a VPN and routing your outbound traffic through that.

  • Mail.app in 10.4.7: SOCKS proxy issues again...

    Hi,
    Today I've updated my PowerBook to MacOS X 10.4.7. All the process was fine, but Mail didn't connect to any server. After reading some posts in this forum I've unmarked the SOCKS proxy settings in the Network pref. pane, and I've recovered the 10.4.6 functionallity. So at least I can work.
    When I'm at office, we have an Exchange server with direct access in the network ( is because this that proxy is not needed ). Also a proxy server controls the Internet access.
    What is not working in Mail ( or I don't know how to use it ) now is the following:
    - Local access to Exchange server is only possible using a POP account. An Exchange account doesn't work because is always asking the password.
    - I need to disable the SOCKS proxy to be able to access the local mail server. So the 'Bypass proxy settings' in the Network preference pane seems to not work ( I've tried all kind of syntaxs: *.domain, server.domain, IP address, etc. )
    - With the SOCKS proxy settings active in my corporate network, I cannot access external mail accounts in external servers. I've tried IMAP and POP accounts with the same result: nothing. This is the same issue than in previous version of Mail.app.
    So waiting again for a Mail patch...

  • In general, Where is AddOn local configuration stored?

    Hi Experts,
    In general, Where is AddOn local configuration stored?
    I am using an AddOn, I have a local network and Windows 2008 Terminal Server (TS). I installed this AddOn in three companies from a LAN PC, and its working fine there from local computer but not in the TS. In Terminal Server just works in two companies but not in the third one.  In the third one appears under AddOn Administration, it is assigned to the company and to the user but when I go to the AddOn Manager It does not appear in pending AddOns neither in installed AddOns, so I am not able to start it.
    Any ideas, Is there a file that holds the local AddOn configuration that I can I just can modify in order to establish the same parameters that SAP is using for the other companies?
    Which files, registry keys and tables are involved in AddOn configuration?
    Thanks

    It would store in C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One\ AddOnsLocalRegistration for a particular client machine.
    Delete the file following <AddOn Exe and ends with AddOn></ADDONS> which you have installed previously.
    Reinstall your add-on definitely it will work.

  • Socks proxy call  from a weblogic server across the firewall to an external program

    Hi,
    From our weblogic server, we are trying to connect to an external
    program outside our firewall through SSL. The SSL connection is being
    tunneled through a socks proxy in the DMZ. (We have not yet made it
    work so far. Currently, we are trying to make it work)
    From the weblogic bean, we are doing the following
    System.setProperty("socksProxySet", "true");
    System.setProperty("socksProxyHost", "w.x.y.z");
    System.setProperty("socksProxyPort", "1080");
    Not that weblogic bean is the initiator of the connection and it talks
    to a program outside our firewall.
    My question is, will this kind of system level setting in the weblogic
    server have any negative impact? This is because, RMI is over sockets
    and weblogic might be talking to its internal components through
    sockets.
    Is it advisable to have such socks related setting the weblogic bean
    level?
    thanks,

    Hi,
    From our weblogic server, we are trying to connect to an external
    program outside our firewall through SSL. The SSL connection is being
    tunneled through a socks proxy in the DMZ. (We have not yet made it
    work so far. Currently, we are trying to make it work)
    From the weblogic bean, we are doing the following
    System.setProperty("socksProxySet", "true");
    System.setProperty("socksProxyHost", "w.x.y.z");
    System.setProperty("socksProxyPort", "1080");
    Not that weblogic bean is the initiator of the connection and it talks
    to a program outside our firewall.
    My question is, will this kind of system level setting in the weblogic
    server have any negative impact? This is because, RMI is over sockets
    and weblogic might be talking to its internal components through
    sockets.
    Is it advisable to have such socks related setting the weblogic bean
    level?
    thanks,
    jas.

  • Socks Proxy with Gtalk?

    Is it possible to use a socks proxy with a Google Talk iChat account? I see the option for the AIM account but it's missing for Google Talk. I'm using iChat 4.0.7.

    Hi,
    What I posted above is the extent of my knowledge on Proxies.
    The GoogleTalk Site might be the best place to look up any info on a Proxy Login to their Server.
