Chapter 2      Using the Web Security Appliance
Participating in The Cisco SensorBase Network
Typically, the Web Proxy uses less than 30 seconds to restart due to a configuration change. (If the Web 
Proxy restarts due to an internal error, the entire restart process may take a few minutes to start all 
services on the appliance.)
To minimize the security risk from web traffic that goes unscanned, you can determine if your 
configuration changes will trigger a Web Proxy restart before you commit them. You can then schedule 
to commit your configuration changes for a time when the Web Proxy processes fewer user transactions, 
such as overnight. How you check for this depends on the interface:
  •
Web interface. When you click the Commit Changes button, the web interface displays a warning 
on the Uncommitted Changes page that the Web Proxy will restart as a result of the commit.
  •
CLI. Use the 
checkproxyrestart
 command before the 
commit
 command. If the configuration 
changes require a Web Proxy restart, the CLI displays “The changes will trigger a proxy restart.”
In addition to a brief interruption of Web Proxy services, you may notice the following effects when the 
Web Proxy restarts: 
  •
The authentication cache is cleared and users need to be authenticated again. 
  •
Tracking statistics are reset. This also affects SNMP because the values depend on tracking 
statistics.
  •
The Web Proxy DNS cache is cleared.
  •
The HTTPS certificate cache is cleared.
  •
Connections to authentication servers are renegotiated.
  •
Any data in the Web Proxy cache that was not written to disk is lost.
  •
Any logging data that is not written to a log file is lost.
Participating in The Cisco SensorBase Network
The Cisco SensorBase Network is a threat management database that tracks millions of domains around 
the world and maintains a global watch list for Internet traffic. SensorBase provides Cisco with an 
assessment of reliability for known Internet domains. The Web Security appliance uses the SensorBase 
data feeds to improve the accuracy of Web Reputation Scores.
Standard SensorBase Network Participation is enabled by default during system setup. You can edit the 
participation level and other settings on the Security Services > SensorBase page after system setup.
Step 1
Navigate to the Security Services > SensorBase page.
Step 2
Verify that SensorBase Network Participation is enabled. 
When it is disabled, none of the data that the appliance collects is sent back to the SensorBase Network 
servers.
Step 3
In the Participation Level section, choose one of the following levels:
  •
Limited. Basic participation summarizes server name information and sends MD5-hashed path 
segments to the SensorBase Network servers.
  •
Standard. Enhanced participation sends the entire URL with unobfuscated path segments to the 
SensorBase Network servers. This option assists in providing a more robust database, and 
continually improves the integrity of Web Reputation Scores.
Step 4
In the AnyConnect Network Participation field, choose whether or not to include information collected 
from clients that connect to the Web Security appliance using Cisco AnyConnect Client.
