Course Description:

'' IPS is a five-day instructor-led, lab-intensive course. This task-oriented course teaches the knowledge and skills needed to design, install, and configure a Cisco Intrusion Prevention solution for small, medium, and enterprise networks. The course covers Cisco IPS platforms including the Cisco 4200 series Sensors, the Catalyst 6500 series Intrusion Detection System Module 2 (IDSM2), and the Network Module for Cisco 2600/3600/3700 routers and Cisco 2800/3800 Integrated Services Routers. The IPS Device Manager and the Management Center for IDS Sensors are used to configure and manage Cisco IDS Sensor platforms and view and respond to IPS alarms.

Describe the management and monitoring capabilities of the IPS Device Manager
Use the IDM to configure the sensor’s communication parameters
Use the IDM to configure allowed hosts
Use the IDM to set the sensor’s time
Use the IDM to create user accounts
Use the IDM to configure sensor interfaces and interface pairs
Use the IDM to configure software bypass mode
Describe the functions of signature engines and their parameters
Use the IDM to tune and create signatures to meet the requirements of a given security policy
Use the IDM to tune the sensor to work optimally in a network
Explain blocking concepts
Use the IDM to configure blocking for a given scenario
Install the NM-CIDS in a router and initialise it
Configure communications between the router and the NM-CIDS and initialise the NM-CIDS
Install and IDSM-2 in a Cisco Catalyst 6500 Switch and initialise it
Use the IDM to upgrade the senor image
Use the IDM to install signature and service pack updates
Use the IDM to configure automatic software updates
Recover the sensor image
Use the CLI to back up and restore a sensor configuration
Use the CLI and the IDM to monitor the sensorUse preventive maintenance and general troubleshooting commands
