New to IPS, what do I need to plan before I turn this on?

Hi, I have an ASA 5520 AIP-SSM 10. I'm having a consultant in to enable and upgrade our IPS on our ASA from 1.5 to 1.6 so it's intergrated into the ASDM (sounds difficult). He said I need to plan what policies we need to enable for the interfaces and DMZ's etc.
This is very new to me and I wondered if this is right, as it sounds bigger than I first thought. Basically I want my network to my as secure as possible and turning on the IPS we bought is needed.
Any advise, links etc would be most welcome.

Go to cisco.com, put this into the search field, download the pdf and read all 799 pages.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but that is the only way to truly understand this enigmatic box.

  • I have a new iPod Classic 160Gb.  i have an iTunes Account, it recognizes my device but will not sync my library of music to my new iPod.  What do I need to do?

    I have a new ipod Classic 160GB.  I already have an Itunes account.  The Itunes account recognizes my device but will not sync my library to this new device.
    What do I need to do?

    Hi Amy2250,
    Have you tried to sync music to the iPod via the iPod subdirectory of iTunes? To do this, plug your iPod into your computer, go into iTunes, click on the iPod tab, click on 'Music' in the iPod subdirectory and select whether you want to sync your whole iTunes library or just selected songs and press sync.
    Alternatively, have you tried manually transferring music onto the iPod using the 'drag and drop' method? To do that, go into iTunes with your iPod connected, click on the iPod tab, in the iTunes iPod Classic subdirectory click on the 'Summary' tab, then tick the box saying 'Manually manage music' and click save. Then, in the same subdirectory click on the 'On this iPod' tab and click on Music. Then, select the songs you want to transfer either in Finder or Windows Explorer, select the songs you want to copy to the iPod and drag them to the blank list in the 'On this iPod' area of iTunes you just opened.
    Good luck,
    stefanrandomly

    Ipod touch stopped charging. I tried a new charger. What do I need to do?

    - See:
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    - Try another cable
    - Try another charging source
    - Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corroded contacts, cracked or broken plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genus Bar of an Apple store.

    The new iMacs do not come with a MiniDisplayPort, they have Thunderbolt, so unless you are talking about purchasing one of the previous generation iMacs such as this refurbished model in the online Apple store, it won't work. And yes, if you are going to get the full range of video resolutions you will need the Dual-Link version.
    For details see the store's web page on the Dual-Link display adapter.

  • My boyfriend wants to play is mac book pro through our television. what do we need? i want to get this for him for x-mas

    my boyfriend wants to play is mac book pro through our television. what do we need? i want to get this for him for x-mas

    MiniDisplayPort-to-? adapter, available at Apple stores and Best Buy and antplace selling Apple.  Plugs into the Thunderbolt or "lightning bolt" port.
    Replace ? with HDMI or VGA or DVI.
    Know that TVs spave pixels further apart, for viewing at 10-15 ft instead of close as monitors do.  Makes viewing small text at 10 ft difficult sometimes.
    Another poster also recently reported that using the mouse on the external display is "laggy".  Some models of Mac have only a graphics card integrated into the CPU (which can be challenged by running a big external TV) and some have a "discrete" or "second" graphics card that handles TVs better.

  • New Mac User - What do I need

    Hi all,  we are switching to Mac after being hardcore PC users for YEARS!!  At this point, all of our documents are in MS Office programs.  What software do I need to be able to transfer all the docs to our new Mac and then read docs from other PC users? The new Mac we are purchasing is OS-X, but in reading through the software that comes with it, I can't tell if what we will need is included.  Thanks for any advice!

    Hello:
    As an option, you might consider iWork.  That is the Apple product - less expensive than Office and seamlessly compatible with Office documents (at least with Word).
    As a gratuitous suggestion, you do NOT need A/V software.  There are NO viruses that affect a Mac running OS X - NONE.  You also do not need to perform basic system maintenance.  OS X, for example, "defrags" files of less than 20 MB on the fly.
    Welcome from the "dark side" to the wonderful world of Apple computing.

  • Using Windows 8 and can't authorize my computer to upload apps and play music on my new laptop.  What do I need to do to fix problem.

    Using Windows 8 and can't authorize my computer to upload apps and play music on my new laptop.  There is no "authorize computer" in a drop down menu as suggested in iTune store or its support page. What do I need to do to fix problem?

    MY personal thinks to Radez29. Yes, it is now authorized. BUT, I have an obvious question and an obvious statement.
    Question......why, in my many emails to/from Apple support, was this simple solution not given to me?
    Statement.......Apple should consider "terminating" the present employees and hiring Radez29. He obviously knows a LOT more than the Apple support team.
    AGAIN, my sincere thanks to Radez29 for this solution.
