Analysis Engine Not running for IPS in AIPSSM Module

Hi all,
The Analysis Engine is not running for IPS module in AIPSSM Module. Please let me know how can i resolve this issue and get the analysis engine of IPS to running status.
Regards
Kiran

Hi Kiran,
Ideally, what you can do is to remove the configuration on the ASA that sends traffic to IPS.
The crash in sensorapp or analysis engine might be traffic, configuration related.
We can try to reboot the IPS with no load on it by stopping sending traffic to it.
You can remove the IPS policy from the ASA configuration.
http://tools.cisco.com/squish/2f7A3
What this will do is stop ASA from sending any traffic to IPS.
Now do the hw-module module 1 reset command.
See if the IPS module comes back up.
If that also fails, then you can re-image the module.
This will however erase the configuration on the module.
The re-image procedure for SSM module:

Hope this helps.

Upgrade asa5585x ips

I upgraded our IPS from 7.1(3)E4 to 7.1(4)E4. My question is how long does it normally take to reboot?

- performed the upgrade using the CLI with no errors
- The upgrade process appeared to complete and reboot, however, the module never came back
to an up state
- sh module 1 detail showed the SSP in an unresponsive state
- sh tech does not show much of anything in the main.log
only message observed during the post is
Cid/E errSystemError - collectStatistics
failed: System error: Could not get user mode interface statistics
[IntfcManager::IntfcManager]

Signature upgrade while IPS licensed expired

Dear All,
I have IDSM-2 module in 6513 switch. One IPS licensed is expired. Other IPS licensed is still valid to 2 months.
Can I still upgrade the signature of this expired(licensed) IPS?
Please advice
Regards,
Anser

Thanks.
How much sensor inspection load in % consider as normal. Sometime it becomes for than 60% and I see the delay of 15ms to 20ms in the local network druing load on sensors.
Please suggest.

Upgrade: Finding ALL obsolete function modules in ECC6

Hello everyone,
Is there a way to find ALL obsolete function modules in ECC6?
I have seen a few web pages posting a small list of obsolete function modules but they are not complete.
I have also tried querying table TFTIT for short text such as 'OBSOLETE' and 'Do not use'. However, some obsolete function modules do not leave any clue in the description at all such as WWW_GET_MIME_OBJECT.
However, if you go to SE37 to view WWW_GET_MIME_OBJECT, you will notice that the SAP screen displays it as 'Function obsolete' under the General Data tab.
I have tried to debug the SE37 transaction to see which flag determines if a function is obsolete but I was not able to find it.
Any one has any ideas? Thanks a lot!

Hi Oscean,
Check table RODIR where objecttype = FUNC and Obsolete = X.
Thanks

Can't find purchased apps after upgrade to IPS 7.0

Grrr - that 7.0 upgrade did NOT go well - major hassle and confusion
Now, maybe I have a new AppleID - one thing's for sure - I see NONE of my purchased apps, now!?
Oh, dear - what shall be done?
Anyone?
Please?

Now, maybe I have a new AppleID
If you created a new Apple ID you will never see your previous purchases!
Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs.

ASA SSM IPS module upgrade won't work

Hello all,
I'm trying to upgrade the IPS sig's on an ASA5520 with a SSM IPS module. I'm trying to upgrade the system to 5.1.1 to further upgrade the device with no luck.
I followed these steps provided by Cisco.com:
1. Log in to the ASA.
2. Enter enable mode:
asa# enable
3. Configure the recovery settings for ASA-SSM:
asa (enable)# hw-module module 1 recover configure
NOTE: If you make an error in the recovery configuration, use the
hw-module module 1 recover stop command to stop the system reimaging
and then you can correct the configuration.
4. Specify the TFTP URL for the system image:
Image URL [tftp://0.0.0.0/]:
Example:
Image URL [tftp://0.0.0.0/]: tftp://10.20.30.40/IPS-SSM-K9-sys-1.1-a-5.1-1.img
5. Specify the command and control interface of ASA-SSM:
Port IP Address [0.0.0.0]:
Example:
Port IP Address [0.0.0.0]: 11.21.31.41
6. Leave the VLAN ID at 0.
VLAN ID [0]:
7. Specify the default gateway of the ASA-SSM:
Gateway IP Address [0.0.0.0]:
Example:
Gateway IP Address [0.0.0.0]: 11.22.33.44
8. Execute the recovery:
asa# hw-module module 1 recover boot
9. Periodically check the recovery until it is complete.
NOTE: The status reads "Recovery" during recovery and reads "Up" when
reimaging is complete.
AFter #8 it just goes back to the enable prompt. A 'sh module' lists the device as 'recover' and hangs FOREVER.... I tested the TFTP server which the new image resides on, and the TFTP is working fine. I don't see any attempts or downloads from the TFTP server for over an hour.
I opened a Ciscop TAC on this and not receiving alot of help...
Please help!!!:)
Thanks

The recovery using this method can takes upwards of 30 minutes, and in some cases even longer.
How long have you left the SSM in the "recovery" state?
There may be something wrong in the config you entered. when that happens the SSM can go into a continuous reboot cycle trying to do the recovery.
Execute "debug module-boot" on the console of the ASA.
The debug output will show you the ROMMON output of the SSM itself. (The SSM has it's own ROMMON. The recovery boot command sends the settings made during the recover configure command to the SSM's ROMMON).
If the ROMMON is experiencing a problem in trying to download the tftp image you should now see that ROMMON error message.
Some typical problems I have seen:
1) Wrong IP given for the sensor.
2) Wrong IP given for the gateway (the gateway must exist on the same network as the sensor) this problem usually happens when using a non-standard netmasked network.
3) Not having the sensor's command and control port plugged into the right network. The external port of the SSM itself is where the IP is being applied. You need to ensure that the extenral port of the SSM is plugged into the right network for that IP.
4) The tftp server is not reachable from the network where the sensor's command and control port is attached. Some users think that if the ASA itself can reach the tftp server that the SSM will also be able to. This is not always the case. It is best to use a tftp server on the same network as the IP provided to the SSM. Or to test the tftp server from another machine on the same network as the SSM.
5) The file name is wrong. Check the captialization especially.
6) The file is not in the default directory on the tftp server. If the file is in a subdirectory you will need to add that subdirectory to the URL:
tftp://10.20.30.40/subdirectoryname/filename
7) The tftp is timing out.
There are 2 things that can cause this:
a) The tftp server is remote, and it takes too long to download the file. The ROMMON does have limits on the number of retries and per packet timeouts (but they are not user configurable). Try using a tftp server local to the SSM.
b) The switch that the SSM connects to has spanning-tree running and spanning-tree does not complete before the SSM ROMMON times out for the tftp attempt. The tftp attempt happens immediately upon ROMMON startup and link up. But with a switch the switch port may be in a "Listen" or "Learn" state for 40 seconds before the box can actually talk on the network. In some cases the tftp download attempts started as soon as link up, and may timeout even before the spanning-tree completes. To work around this configure "spanning-tree portfast" on the switchport. Spanning-tree will connect the port into the vlan immediately rather than 40 seconds later.
If it was a config problem when configuring the recovery settings, then there is a "recover stop" command on the ASA.
It will stop the reboot cycle from happening.
Let the module come up with the old image.
Then correct your "recover configure" settings, and try the "recover boot" again.
Another alternative:
Stop the recovery "recover stop"
Let it boot into the old image.
If it was a 5.0 version, then you can actually upgrade to 5.1 using the sensor's own CLI "upgrade" command. It is actually the preferred method.
The "recover" from the ASA will wipe the box clean and load a fresh image.
The "upgrade" from the sensor will convert your 5.0 config into a 5.1 config while installing 5.1.
5.1 upgrade file:
IPS-K9-min-5.1-1g.pkg
http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/ips5
It can be applied through the sensor's CLI upgrade command, or pushed directly through IDM, or applied by CSM.
The "recover" should be limited to disaster recovery. When you can't access the SSM at all, or the files on the SSM have been corrupted.
For normal upgrades you want to use "upgrade" files done through the sensor itelf (CLI, IDM, or CSM).

Upgrade IPS moudle on ASA to 6.0.3

I upgraded the ips module ASA-SSM-20 on the ASA from 5.x to 6.0.3 lately. The ASA are setup as active/standby. i upgraded both modules successfully on each ASA. After the upgrade, i notice the ASA failover to the other partner about 10 times for the past day, particularly when traffic was high. Before the upgrade, i don't have this problem. Anyone run into this problem before, and any idea? thanks.

Hi, I have the same problem by one our customer. I would like to compare my and your sw versions? We are using Cisco ASA ver 7.0.7GD, I tested it also on versions 7.2.2 and 7.2.3 the result is the same! Do you use also the IPS Firmware version: 1.0(11)2, Software version: 6.0(3)E1? Please could you write out from configuration "show failover state", do you see there also in the field "Last Failure Reason" = IPS Card Failure in both unit? I thing there should be some problem with the new IPS software! If you wish contact me!

Develop module not working since upgrade to 4.2

I've installed the 4.2 upgrade and now the develop module doesn't work anymore. It was working fine on 4.1, 64bit version.
I'm on Windows 7 Pro, with second generation i7 CPU, 16 gig Ram
Please have look at this thread at Photoshop.com were I reported this problem with a lot of details already. So far no help provided.....and that's 4 days ago.
I really need help with this as I cannot work my Photos until this is fixed...or at least a solution to remove system files that are not removed when un-installing, as they bring the problem to a previous version that was working just fine before upgrade to 4.2 ( un-installed 4.2 then re-install 4.1, then 4.1 now has the same problem I have with 4.2) What a mess.......

Thank you both, as this was the lead I needed to follow.....
The profile is the problem...yes,.... and no....
I use X-rite Color Munki as my profiler, latest upgrade, 1.0.2.0
Using the above info, I've switched from my profile to sRGB, to manufacturer profile and others in the list...result : mine has the problem and not any of the others.
I've just spent 7 hours straight, un-installing, re-installing, LR 4.2, 4.1, Color Munki, deleting the content of the LR Preference file, re-profiling using "easy" and "advanced", trying all kinds of combinations and sequences of the above....
My findings:
1- In LR 4.1 Using my profile, and deleting the content of the " Preference" file before starting LR, everything works just fine. Then when you shut it down and re-open it, the problem is back. Using " Task manager", I force the shut down of the " Not responding" LR, go back to deleting the "preference file" content, and LR works again. This does not work with LR 4.2
2- In LR 4.1 On the last re-calibration I've done, I tried again and it did not work. Went to change profile to my default manufacturer's one and as expected LR worked....but I noticed that the calibration profile change did not affect the monitor screen, and LR 4.1 works perfectly on multiple starts and closes.
Here is the interesting part....: My Color Munki profile is still displayed on the monitor, ( I did not "Restart" or "Re-boot" ) and the selected profile is the manufacturer's in Control Panel's Color Management, and LR 4.1 works perfectly.Can it be that the profile itself, displayed on the monitor, is not really the problem?
Is it possible the "Conflict" would be in "Windows Color Management"? or LR's color management protocols?.....
I have not tried # 2 with LR 4.2 as I'm kind of chicken of going another round of hours at it.... Like the saying goes..." If it ain't brokin', don't fix it ".....
So, for now, I'll cary on with 4.1 as I can at least continue working......hopefully, using the "Sleep mode", and not "Shut down", the set-up will maybe stay "as is", and if not, I now know how to fool it.....

Upgraded to 8.2.1 now I have a version mismatch for the PDA module ver. 8.2

I just recieved a new laptop. I installed LV 8.2.1, then PDA module 8.2. Programs will not build. I get a "Mismatched Versions of Labview and the PDA module" error. Help.

Hello,
I was able to reproduce this version mismatch error on a test PC with LabVIEW 8.2.1 and PDA 8.2. This is expected behavior. Also, Matt called in on the phone, and I directed him to his internal sales representative to be shipped 8.2.1 of the PDA module.
I suspect the reason why I was not encountering this on my own PC was that I had already upgraded my LabVIEW Touch Panel Module to 8.2.1 but not PDA yet.
For all people reading this, the ultimate answer is that the PDA version number should match the LabVIEW version number.

Can VMS be used to upgrade IPS version (not sig)

Can VMS be used to upgrade the IPS version on sensors? Or do you have to log into each sensor and upgrade that way?

VMS (and it's little brother CSM) were designed to apply all the updates; signature, Service Packs and even (when you're lucky) Majot Updates. VMS is a management tool, allowing you to manage more sensors than if you had to log into each one by hand.

WLAN Module Upgrade for DV6-7030TX

Hi,
I'm looking at upgrading the Broadcom 4313GN WLAN module that came with my DV6-7030tx and want to replace it with an Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6230 (part number 670691-001 in the service manual).
However, I've seen a number of posts in this forum with possible discrepancies between the part numbers listed in service manuals and the actual part.
For example, when I search for that part (670691-001)on the HP spare parts store, it's listed as "Ralink WLAN Ralink Ripple3 RT5390F_802.11 b/g/n 1x1 PCIe HMC".
Can anyone advise if I'm actually able to upgrade to an Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6230 as per the service manual?
Here's a link for the exact product specs: HP Pavlion DV6-7030TX
Thanks.
This question was solved.

Hi,
Clearly as an Associate Professor with over 2K of Posts your are a smart Fella/Fellie.
However there are also some pretty smart people over at My Digital Life and BIOS-Mods.com and other BIOS related web sites who would disagree with you and also seem to have numerous examples of successful "white list removal/modification" Fixes.
I am personally not advocating the "moding" of your HP BIOS but this "white list" issue is a hot topic on the net and as with many other examples of Hardware Manufacturers throwing down the "gauntlet" to annoyed and often ingenious customers there are not many, if any, examples of the Manufacturers winning these "ha ha you can't mod/hack me" battles.
Ask Nintendo, Apple, Microsoft, Samsung, HTC, Huawei ets etc.etc.
HP can not win at this and all they are doing by stopping their paid up customers from updating ONE component of their systems they are just p*&^%$ing people off. Why can we modify our HDD, RAM, Video Card etc but not our WiFi Card??????????
It certainly annoys me that I buy a new 2012 HP Laptop that in WiFi terms is technologically behind my kids local public school. It even annoys me more when I find that I cannot update that ONE $30- $40 WiFi component because HP has placed code in the system BIOS to block any changes THEY do not want me to make. It is MY LAPTOP. I should be able to change what I want to even without consideration of any so called warranty related issues.
In contacting HP about the Pavilion DV6 7002AX they do not even want to know about it. Their attitude is they do not officially sell it. It is sold only through retailers. Nothing to do with HP????? It has got HP all over it!!!!!
If they do not even admit to selling the DV6 7002AX then why are they worried about me changing the "steam driven" WiFI Card they stuck me with?????
HP can not win this, and I do not believe that the extent of the negative feelings from customers and possible future customers out here in the real world is in any way worth the few extra bucks they are making by screwing customers around.
I will continue to look for non HP solution because HP does not offer any.
It is nearly Christmas HP, win a few friends, grow up, and support your customers. Remove the "white lists with new BIOS updates all round.
I wonder how long this post will take to disappear?
still crazy after all these years

Upgrading ids 4.1 to IPS 5

I have a 4235 with 4.1 I am trying to upgrade with IPS-K9-maj-5.0-1e-S149.rpm.pkg the sensor does it's reboot but in the end it just hangs on "uncompressing Linux....ok, booting the kernel" any idea why it stops there.

Call me stupid but I always have the same problem so I have got in the habit of backing up my config on the IDS and downloading the new .img file for the upgrades. I have had that happen to me way to many times.. It wont happen if you use the .img file though.. I promise you that ;)
Note: I said i backed up my IDS config because if you use the .img file you lose the config on the IDS as well.. Just an FYI.
