  • ISA500 is vulnerable to Heartbleed!

    Hi,
    We have a Cisco ISA570 running the latest firmware version of 1.2.19.
    However, after running several Heartbleed tests, we found that it is vulnerable to this threat.  It's not even listed as an affected product on the Cisco Security Advisory page.  
    We had to disable SSL VPN services as a workaround, but that disables remote access for our users which isn't an acceptable option for long term.
    What do we need to do to get our ISA570 updated to fix this active threat?
    Thanks in advanced!

    Yep, and the release notes didn't take ages to come out:

  • Trying to configure an ISA500

    I am trying to configure an ISA500 (base model without built-in wireless). The customer has a Comcast cable modem, and a Linksys wireless router for his client machines. I have it set up to go from the modem to the ISA WAN port, and then one of the LAN ports is serving up the wireless router. However, this is not working for me. I can see the ISP IP address on port 1, but cannot talk to the wireless router on the LAN port at all. Can someone offer some direction on this? Everything I have looked at online talks only about configuring the 500W model that has its own wireless radio, nothing about 3rd party.

    Hi Jeremiah, you should be able to make a LAN port to LAN port connection to the other wireless router so long as the wireless router has DHCP disabled and an IP address on the same subnet as the ISA.

  • ISA500 tagged WAN port

    Hello,
    I'm currently evaluating an ISA570W firewall.
    The use case is to deploy it as an entry level firewall on FTTH internet access lines.
    The ISP provides a CPE that requires internet trafic to be tagged on a specific VLAN.
    I was a bit suprise when, after trying this configuration, finding out that the WAN port on the ISA500 can only be put in access mode.
    Which effectively makes this device unusable.
    Is there another way to set one of the ethernet interface in trunk mode and put it in the WAN zone with DHCP client enabled?
    Thanks,

    so I digged a bit further and found a document from Cisco's knowledgebase that describes steps by steps instructions for the WAN port: http://sbkb.cisco.com/CiscoSB/Loginr.aspx?login=1&pid=2&app=search&vw=1&articleid=3719
    searching for vlan tag showed me a screen that allowed the setting of a tagged vlan on the WAN port but only available for PPPoE IP address assignement.
    the VLAN tag option is not available with "DHCP Client" IP address assignement.
    Is this something we could see in a future firmware release?
    From what I've seen tagged vlan on the WAN port is a typical configuration requirement for FTTH services here in Switzerland.
    Thanks,

  • VLAN ISA500

    Is the following possible (to save the cost of 1 switch?)
    [modem of ISP]
    |--> [ISA 500]
               |--> WAN port - vlan 1: dhcp
                                    - vlan 2: mac passthrough (the device has to ask the ISP an IP which can be only done via the correct MAC address)
    = 2 vlan on the WAN port
    The goal is to have 2 vlan on the wan port of the ISA500 so 1 LAN port can be used for the internal network and 1 LAN port will be used to connect the device of vlan 2 so it can ask an IP address
    Is this possible?

    Ok.  I'm a little confused so let me see if I can get my arms back around this.  To begin with, I'd recommend leaving DHCP Off on the SG and using the DHCP on the ISA.
    You mentioned "I did the following on the ISA" twice
    Did you try the first one and then tried the second one and neither worked?
    Did you do both on the ISA?
    Is this just a typo and the other should have been "I did the following on the SG"?
    If this is the correct one, you mentioned that you created a VLAN5 on the SG.  You shouldn't need to do that as it should detect it from the Trunk once you complete step 3 below and allow you to assign VLAN5 to a switch port.  If it doesn't, try changing port 27 on the SG to a Trunk Port as well, after completing step 3 below.  Either way, before proceeding, please delete the VLAN 5  you created on the SG.
    After configuring WAN 2 (IP via MAC), did WAN 2 get the correct IP Assigned to it?
    You mentioned adjusting GE2 and GE3 to be Trunk Ports, put VLAN1 in GE2 and VLAN5 in GE3 and connected both ports to the SG
    You only need 1 Trunk Port and only one cable connecting that Trunk Port to the SG.  Please do the following.
    Disconnect the cable between GE3 on the ISA and port 28 on the SG
    Change GE3 in the ISA back to an Access Port and put it back in VLAN1
    Add VLAN5 to GE2 so that GE2 is still a Trunk Port and contains both VLAN1 and VLAN5
    On the SG, you mentioned that you tagged port 28 to be VLAN5 and forbidden VLAN1.
    If VLAN5 was deleted from the SG as I mentioned in step 1 above, please apply the auto-detected VLAN5 that should now exist in the SG to port 28.  Otherwise, please leave the current configuration as is.  Either way, please attach the DIGIBOX to port 28 on the SG.
    Ensure the DIGIBOX gets an IP from the VLAN5 IP Pool.
    If you are going to need to allow unsolicited traffic from the internet to the DIGIBOX, please configure the DIGIBOX with static IP, Gateway, DNS info for the VLAN5 IP Pool.
    You'll also need to configure a Static NAT entry in the ISA to use the WAN2 IP for the Private Static IP you assign to the DIGIBOX.
    You'll also need to create Access Rules in the ISA for any services that need to be allowed unsolicited to the DIGIBOX.
    If the DIGIBOX just needs internet access, only needs to use the IP on WAN2, and supports DHCP, I'd recommend leaving it as DHCP.

  • ISA500 series PCI compliance scans

    We have a single customer who's having a problem with their credit card PCI vendor, First Data, scanning their ISA550W running 1.2.15.  Of all my customers with an ISA500 series device, this is the only customer who has had a PCI vendor tell them they cannot run their scans and that they must whitelist an entire /24 to allow the scans to continue.  The only open port is an encrypted remote support port and there are no other ACLs in place to block anything other than the defaults that ship with the ISA.  Anyone have any ideas why the First Data would have a problem with the ISA550W?

    Thanks for your reply.  First Data http://biz.yahoo.com/ic/14/14441.html well, what can you say, they're big bully and in this case you have to love what ended up being the problem.  First Data sent this to the customer:
    This is an automated email to notify you that a PCI vulnerability scan of the IP  addresses or domains used by CUSTOMER NAME could not be completed. This scan  is included as part of your PCI Rapid Comply services.
    Please confirm  that the following IP addresses or domains are the ones you use for the  transmission of cardholder data. Unless you have paid extra to your Internet  Service Provider to get a "static" IP address, your IP address may have  changed.
    xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
    Also, please make sure you have added the  following IP addresses to your firewall (and/or IDS/IPS) whitelist:
    38.123.140.0/24 for the duration  of your PCI scan. If another department within your organization (or a vendor)  manages your firewall and IDS/IPS, please make them aware of this scan and  request that the above IP addresses are temporarily added to the  whitelist.
    You need to have a passing PCI scan to be compliant.  Therefore, once you have confirmed that the target hosts are correct and that  your firewall and IDS/IPS whitelist allows access by 38.123.140.0/24, please schedule  another PCI scan of the networks used to process, transmit, or store cardholder  data.
    Thank you,

    As you stated, what these fools don't seem to get is by whitelisting their IPs any outside network scans (this isn't done by an internal software scanner but from their remote network) becomes moot.  I tried explaining to their trained monkey that the proper behavior for a firewall that detects remote scans is to block those scans.  The guy kep reading to me off his 3"x5" index card (I'm sure it wasn't a card, but you get my drift).  He clearly had never even seen a firewall let alone managed a network.
    After a couple hours of bouncing around inside First Data and shaking limbs, my customer got a call back from their account rep who stated that they were totally PCI compliant and that the e-mail was BOGUS!  The e-mail was sent out just after 10AM Sunday, 23 June 2013 and we were notified 24 hours later.  So 26 hours later this company who prides itself on being one of the biggest CC processing companies out there is too lazy to send a follow-up e-mail admitting they sent out false notifications wasting their customers' time and mine.  I asked their media rep who called me back about 3 hours after I got the call from the customer, "who gets the bill for my time?"  She had no answer.  Hopefully the lawsuits pending against PCI and CC processors will have a chilling effect on their strong arm tactics and their clueless PCI scans.

  • ISA500 Help

    I have a new ISA500 Router that I am configuring to be our internal firewall, VPN and wireless router.
    This router is connected to another Cisco router managed by our ISP, Their router is in "Bridge mode" 
    1. I have configured port forwarding for all HTTP HTTPS traffic to go to my Web server
    2. I have configured all e-mail traffic to go to my Exchange server.
    Issue:  When I turn on the ISA500 router
              VPN --works
              Wi-Fi -- works
         I can get to the internet on all desktops
    E-mail "Sending" works
    We cannot recive any e-mail
    Since we host our own Web server, no one can access our web server from the outside.
    When I disconnect the router and have the ISP turn port forwarding back on, on their router,  I then get the e-mail that was sent eailer.
    all is good then.
    Any suggestions.

    Thank you, I had a Cisco tech look at it on-line and he told me that it was programmed correctly, altoug I still have the same problem.   His sugestion was to ensure that the ports were open on my server. Although The only time I have this issue is when I put this new router in place, so I do not think it is my server.   I do have my ISP router still in place, I was thinking maybe I need them to put their router in Bridge mode??  not sure. 

    Hello Darrell,
    It sounds like the ISA500 might be blocking the email traffic because of a firewall setting. I recommend double checking the configuration for the ISA500's firewall.
    Let me know if this works.
    Thanks,

  • ISA500, ssh username for remote support

    Hi!
    The ISA500 platform has got a remote support feature via ssh (Device Management > Cisco Services & Support > Remote Support).
    When I activate this feature, a ssh-session to the ISA can be established.
    But I don't see any possibility to set a username in the configuration. So I don't know the right user for wich I set the password in the Web-GUI.
    I tried some well known users (cisco, Cisco, admin, root, pix, ...) , but always "access denied".
    Does anyone know this user to login to the ISA via SSH?
    Thanks and Best Regards,
    Woger

    Good morning
    Hi Christian, thanks for using our forum, my name is Johnnatan and I am part of the Small business Support community.  As you know you can change your password using the GUI in Device Management > Cisco Services & Support > Remote Support. However using the Remote Support page to enable the SSHv2 server is for debugging  purposes. This feature allows the engineers to use a unique console root password to log in to the security appliance for debugging operations.
    I hope you find this answer useful,

  • CSCur85678 - ISA500 Cant access web Configuration Utility when SSLv3 is disabled

    Any chance of a fix for this?
    Would be so nice to see Cisco do the decent thing and give all the users caught by the premature EOLs of these devices an upgrade to fix this.

    Follow up.....
    Thank you.
    The new frmware release 1.2.22 enables administration of the ISA500 devices using ssl without the sslv3 enabled.
    Very nice.

  • ISA500 - support for RSA SoftToken

    Does the ISA500 support SoftTokens like RSA for Remote Access authentication.
    If it is not available today, is it planned for future roadmap?
    ThanskPete

    Hi Pete,
    The ISA500 supports Radius and LDAP for external authentication servers.  Since an RSA server can be configured to use Radius, it should work using Radius.

  • ISA500 Web Filter

    Hi All,
    would be possible to create a specific web filter profile for a given IP address (or user) of a zone?
    Eg. the LAN zone [192.168.75.0 /24] has the "Restaurants" category blocked, but only the IP address 192.168.75.123 /32 (the boss with his PC in LAN zone) has the "Restaurants" category permitted?
    Thanks.
    Massimo

    ISA500 is a zone based firewall.  While the ability of "creating an exception for Web URL filtering within a zone" is in a roadmap, one can consider to use ISA500's zone based firewall to achieve the need of having different Web URL filtering policies for different user groups.
    For example, an admin wants to allow "manager" user group to access everything but prevents employee" user group from accessing "game" category.  The admin can create two zones - one "manager" zone and the other "employee" zone.  Each zone then has its own Web URL filtering policy. 
    To place a user group to a specific zone, admin put the target users to the VLAN associating with the target zone.
    In the case of wireless, admin can take advantages of multiple SSIDs ability of ISA500.  For example, admin can create two SSIDs - one SSID is "manager" and the other is "employee".  Each of the SSID is then associated to a VLAN beloing to the target zone.
    While this approach has scalability limitation, it should easily support 2 or 3 different Web URL policies (or more if wired is used).
    Hopefully this helps.

  • ISA500 series and Shellshock bug

    Hello,
    Would the shellshock bug be corrected with a new firmware for the ISA500 series?
    It would be nice even the support end in November 14.
    And to correct the VPN issue at the same time. It's boring to reboot the device each 2-3 weeks while all tunnel fails.

    ==============================================================
    Site 1 = Cisco ISA 500. Named as CHI
    Site 2 = Cisco RV042. Named as Alabang
    Shown above is the logs from my ISA 570 IPSec VPN. I have set the same settings for my IKE Policies and my Transform Sets. Attached are the screenshots of my the VPN Settings of my 2 systems. It does show in the table above that the 112.209.172.XXX is unreachable, but please look at screen6.bmp and see that I can very well ping the RV042 system. Please feel free to ask me for more info about my setup.
    On a side note, take a look at Screen5.bmp. This screenie shows that I have an existing WORKING VPN connection to another site with a Linksys RV042, named as Villa. So as you can also see in the screenshot, it has a VPN setup for CHI but it can not connect. Hence my problem above. The VPN setting for Villa is the same as CHI (PFS, IKE, Transforms, PFS).

    Dan,
    Since I'm not a Cisco employee, don't have access to spare ISAs and RVs to setup a lab and test, don't have a setup similar enough to yours to test with, don't have access to your devices, and wouldn't have other than UI access if I did, doing a little trial and error is all I have to work with to assist you.
    That said, it's not random trial and error. From what I'm able to see via your screenshots and explanations, all of your config looks correct. So if everything for Phase 1 & 2 are accurate, then it should work unless there is an interesting traffic mismatch.
    Usually this is pretty straightforward and simple to troubleshoot and confirm. However when you add in additional challenges that come with Multi-WAN support, terminating the VPN on the secondary WAN interface, and PBR, there is a lot of room for possible mistakes as the config is becoming fairly complex.
    So my thought was to remove what I perceived to be the least impacting piece of complexity, which is the custom PBR that is sending those 2 laptops out WAN 2 instead of WAN 1, so that the only non-typical configuration was the VPN terminating on WAN 2.
    Right now I'm assuming the issue isn't the the possibility of the ISA and RV042 being incapable of establishing a VPN. I'm assuming it is either an issue with VPN termination on WAN 2 (which I don't believe is an issue) or something not quite right with PBR and VPN interesting traffic.

  • ISA500 / ISA570W Wifi woes

    Hi,
    We have an ISA570w but the wifi has issues dropping out, during the "drop out" users are still connected but performance drops to the point that pinging a (wired) machine takes 7ms!
    I have checked the firmware and it is up to date (1.2.20) the logs is full of messages about not being able to phone-home but nothing about wifi or networking (the phoning-home problem apparently is about DNS so not related)
    Has anyone any ideas either or how to fix this or diagnose it?

    There seems to be an issue in Broadcom computer WIFI (BCM 43xx) with Windows 8 below. It runs well with Windows 7.
