Cisco Cisco Email Security Appliance C160 Mode D'Emploi

First, you change the password for the AsyncOS admin account. You must enter the old password to 
continue. The new password must be six characters or longer. Be sure to keep the password in a secure 
location. Changes made to the password are effective once the system setup process is finished.

Read and accept the software license agreement that is displayed.

Next, you define the fully-qualified hostname for the Email Security appliance. This name should be 
assigned by your network administrator.

The next step assigns and configures a logical IP interface on the physical Ethernet interface named 
Management (on X1070, C670, and C370 appliances) or Data 1 (on C170 appliances), and then prompts 
you to configure a logical IP interface on any other physical Ethernet interfaces available on the 
appliance. 

Each Ethernet interface can have multiple IP interfaces assigned to it. An IP interface is a logical 
construct that associates an IP address and hostname with a physical Ethernet interface. If you decided 
to use both the Data 1 and Data 2 Ethernet ports, you need the IP addresses and hostnames for both 
connections.

X1070, C670, and C370 customers: Cisco recommends using one of the physical Ethernet ports to 
connect directly to the Internet for the purposes of receiving inbound email through public listeners, and 
using another physical Ethernet port to connect directly to your internal network for the purposes of 
relaying outbound email through private listeners. 

C170 customers: By default, the 

systemsetup

 command will configure only one physical Ethernet port 

with one listener for receiving inbound email and relaying outbound email.
