When uploading an IPS signature package to a Cisco router, what is required for the upload to
self-extract the files?
A.
the idconf on the end of the copy command
B.
a public key on the Cisco router
C.
IPS must be disabled on the upload interface
D.
HTTP Secured server must be enabled
Explanation:
First, the signature package must be downloaded from Cisco.com. Go to the download section of
Cisco.com and navigate to Products > Security > Integrated Router/Switch
Security > Integrated Threat Control > Cisco IOS Intrusion Prevention System Feature Software >
IOS IPS Signature Data File. Download the latest package, which should have a filename in the
format IOS-Sxxx-CLI.pkg. Put the file on the server from which you will transfer it to the router.
Use the copy command to transfer the file to the routers idconf alias. This causes the router to
download and unpack the contents of the file (XML files)
