Cisco Cisco IPS 4255 Sensor

To migrate IEV 5.x events to the IME, you must exit the installation and manually export the old events 
by using the IEV 5.x export function to move the data to local files. After installing IME 7.0.3, you can 
import these files to the new IME system.

IME 7.0.3 does not support import and migration functions for IEV 4.x.

To export event data from IEV 5.x to a local file, follow these steps:

From IEV 5.x, choose File > Database Administration > Export Database Tables.

Enter the file name and select the table(s). 

Click OK. The events in the selected table(s) are exported to the specified local file.

To import event data in to the IME, follow these steps:

From the IME, choose File > Import.

Select the file exported from IEV 5.x and click Open. The contents of the selected file are imported in 
to the IME.

Beginning with IME 7.0.3, you are required to create a password to access the IME.

When you start the IME for the first time, the Password Policy dialog box appears. Enter a password that 
you will use to access the IME. Reenter the password to confirm, and then click OK. From now on when 
you log in to the IME, enter your password in the Enter IME password field and click OK. To change 
the IME password, choose Tools > Change User Password, and enter your existing password and your 
new password, and then reenter the new password to confirm. When you uninstall and reinstall the IME, 
you must create a user password. You do not have to restart the IME after a password change.

The IME does not support user roles or multiple sessions, so you do not need to configure a user name.
