Description
Benefit
Secure backup and restore of
Cisco ACE Module files
Cisco ACE Module files
The Cisco ACE Module can securely back up and
restore the startup configuration, running
configuration, checkpoints, license files, and SSL
keys and certificate files across multiple virtual
devices with a single command, both in administrator
and user contexts. An option allows encryption of the
backup archive to securely store the SSL keys and
certificates.

Provides efficient and administrator-friendly user
interface, especially in an environment with multiple
contexts, freeing administrators to do more with reduced
IT operating budgets

Enhanced SNMP MIB support
The Cisco ACE Module supports additional SNMP
MIBs, leading to parity with the MIBs supported on
the Cisco ACE 4710.

Granular reporting of HTTP URL
hits on a virtual IP address
hits on a virtual IP address
The Layer 7 match HTTP URL statement hit count
feature allows you to display the number of times that
a connection is established (hit count) based on
match HTTP URL statements for a class map in a
Layer 7 HTTP policy map.

HTTP header insert for SSL
information
information
The Cisco ACE Module can offload SSL processing
from the real server in the web application server
farm. In some cases, the web application still requires
SSL-related information such as the SSL session
parameters, SSL server certificate, and SSL client
certificate. With this new feature, the information is
provided to the web application through user-defined
HTTP protocol headers that are inserted by the Cisco
ACE Module during HTTP communication with the
real server running the web application.

The Cisco ACE Module can redirect users in the
event of failed client authentication, providing more
information such as the reason for the client
authentication failure and recommended next steps to
restore access to the application.

The Cisco ACE Module can query the CRL
distribution point (CDP) server using the LDAP
protocol, both in SSL termination and end-to-end SSL
deployment modes.

Sample SSL key and certificate
The Cisco ACE Module software image has a sample
SSL key and certificate pair to get the user started
with SSL offload function testing and integration prior
to requesting a third-party-generated SSL key and
certificate pair for use in real-world production
environments.
