Establishing Nm-Cids Sessions - Cisco 4215 - Intrusion Detection Sys Sensor Configuration Manual

Chapter 16 Configuring NM-CIDS
Note
Step 2 Enable the CEF switching path:
router# configuration terminal
router(config)# ip cef
router(config)# exit
Create a loopback interface:
Step 3
router# configure terminal
router(config)# interface loopback 0
Assign an IP address and netmask to the loopback interface:
Step 4
router(config-if)# ip address 10.16.0.0 255.255.0.0
Note
Assign an unnumbered loopback interface to the ids-sensor interface. Use slot 1 for this example.
Step 5
router(config)# interface ids-sensor 1/0
router(config-if)# ip unnumbered loopback 0
Step 6 Activate the port:
router(config-if)# no shutdown
Exit configuration mode:
Step 7
router(config-if)# end
Write the configuration to NVRAM:
Step 8
router# write memory
Building configuration
[OK]

Establishing NM-CIDS Sessions

This section describes how to establish sessions between the router and NM-CIDs. It contains the
following topics:

•

Cisco IOS gives NM-CIDS the name "IDS-Sensor." In this example, 1 is the slot number and 0
is the port number, because there is only one port.
You must assign an IP address to the NM-CIDS's internal interface to session in to NM-CIDS.
Choose a network that does not overlap with any networks assigned to the other interfaces in the
router. It does not have to be a real IP address, because you will not be using this address to
access NM-CIDS.
