Cisco Cisco IPS 4255 Sensor

Cisco IPS 7.1(2)E4 is supported on the following platforms:

ASA 5585-X SSP-10 with IPS SSP-10 

ASA 5585-X SSP-20 with IPS SSP-20 

ASA 5585-X SSP-40 with IPS SSP-40 

ASA 5585-X SSP-60 with IPS SSP-60 

The following FTP servers are supported for IPS software updates:

WU-FTPD 2.6.2 (Linux) 

Solaris 2.8

Sambar 6.0 (Windows 2000)

Serv-U 5.0 (Windows 2000)

MS IIS 5.0 (Windows 2000)

The following HTTP/HTTPS servers are supported for IPS software updates:

CSM - Apache Server (Tomcat)

CSM - Apache Server (JRun) 

ROMMON uses TFTP to download an image and launch it. TFTP does not address network issues such 
as latency or error recovery. It does implement a limited packet integrity check so that packets arriving 
in sequence with the correct integrity value have an extremely low probability of error. But TFTP does 
not offer pipelining so the total transfer time is equal to the number of packets to be transferred times 
the network average RTT. Because of this limitation, we recommend that the TFTP server be located on 
the same LAN segment as the sensor. Any network with an RTT less than a 100 milliseconds should 
provide reliable delivery of the image. Be aware that some TFTP servers limit the maximum file size that 
can be transferred to ~32 MB.

IDM 7.1.2 is included within IME 7.1.2. You can use IME 7.1.2 to configure IPS 6.1, 6.2, 7.0, and 7.1 
sensors.
