OL-23370-01
Ce dispositif est conforme à la norme CNR-210 d'Industrie Canada applicable aux appareils radio
exempts de licence. Son fonctionnement est sujet aux deux conditions suivantes: (1) le dispositif ne doit
pas produire de brouillage préjudiciable, et (2) ce dispositif doit accepter tout brouillage reçu, y compris
un brouillage susceptible de provoquer un fonctionnement indésirable.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Canada Radiation Exposure Statement: (For ISA550W and ISA570W)
This equipment complies with Canada radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between
the radiator and your body.
NOTE IMPORTANTE: (Pour l'utilisation de dispositifs mobiles)
Déclaration d'exposition aux radiations:
Cet équipement est conforme aux limites d'exposition aux rayonnements IC établies pour un
environnement non contrôlé. Cet équipement doit être installé et utilisé avec un minimum de 20 cm de
distance entre la source de rayonnement et votre corps.
This device has been designed to operate with an antenna having a maximum gain of 1.8 dBi. Antenna
having a higher gain is strictly prohibited per regulations of Industry Canada. The required antenna
impedance is 50 ohms.
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type
and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio
interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent
isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication.
(Le manuel d'utilisation de dispositifs émetteurs équipés d'antennes amovibles doit contenir les
informations suivantes dans un endroit bien en vue:)
Ce dispositif a été conçu pour fonctionner avec une antenne ayant un gain maximal de 1.8 dBi. Une
antenne à gain plus élevé est strictement interdite par les règlements d'Industrie Canada. L'impédance
d'antenne requise est de 50 ohms.
Conformément à la réglementation d'Industrie Canada, le présent émetteur radio peutfonctionner avec
une antenne d'un type et d'un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pourl'émetteur par Industrie Canada.
Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage radioélectriqueà l'intention des autres utilisateurs, il faut
choisir le type d'antenne et son gain de sorte que lapuissance isotrope rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne
dépasse pas l'intensité nécessaire àl'établissement d'une communication satisfaisante.
UL/CB
Rack Mount Instructions - The following or similar rack-mount instructions are included with the
installation instructions:
A) Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating
ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore,
consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the
maximum ambient temperature (Tma) 40 degree C specified by the manufacturer.
B) Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow
required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
C) Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous
condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
OL-23370-01
D) Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply
circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply
wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this
concern.

About the Default Settings
The security appliance is predefined with the settings that allow you to start using
the device with minimal changes needed. Depending the requirements of your
Internet Service Provider (ISP) and the needs of your business, you might need to
modify some of these settings. You can use the Configuration Utility to customize
all settings, as needed.
Settings of particular interest are described below. For a full list of all factory
default settings, see Appendix C, "Factory Default Settings."
Cisco ISA500 Series Integrated Security Appliance Administration Guide

Getting Started
About the Default Settings
•
IP Routing Mode: By default, only the IPv4 mode is enabled. To support the
IPv4 and IPv6 addressing, you need to enable the IPv4/IPv6 mode. To
change the IP routing mode, see Configuring IP Routing Mode, page 95.
•
WAN Configuration: By default, the security appliance is configured to
obtain an IP address from your ISP by using Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol (DHCP). Depending on the requirement of your ISP, you will need to
configure the network address mode for the primary WAN and the
secondary WAN if applicable. You can change other WAN settings as well.
See Configuring the WAN, page 101.
•
LAN Configuration: By default, the LAN of the security appliance is
configured in the 192.168.1.0 subnet and the LAN IP address is 192.168.1.1.
The security appliance acts as a DHCP server to the hosts on the WLAN or
LAN network. It can automatically assign IP addresses and DNS server
addresses to the PCs and other devices on the LAN. For most deployment
scenarios, the default DHCP and TCP/IP settings should be satisfactory.
However, you can change the subnet address or the default IP address. You
can assign static IP addresses to connected devices rather than allowing the
security appliance to act as a DHCP server. See Configuring the VLAN,
page 118.
•
VLAN Configuration: The security appliance predefines a native VLAN
(DEFAULT) and a guest VLAN (GUEST). You can customize new VLANs for
your specific business needs. See Configuring the VLAN, page 118.
•
Configurable Ports: By default, all configurable ports are set to act as LAN
ports. Alternatively, you can configure the configurable port for use as a DMZ
port or a secondary WAN port. See Configuring the WAN, page 101 or
Configuring the DMZ, page 123.
•
Wireless Network (for ISA550W and ISA570W only): The ISA550W or
ISA570W is configured with four SSIDs. All SSIDs are disabled by default.
For security purposes, we strongly recommend that you configure the SSIDs
with the appropriate security settings. See Wireless Configuration for
ISA550W and ISA570W, page 157.
•
Administrative Access: You can access the Configuration Utility by using a
web browser and entering the default LAN IP address of 192.168.1.1. You
can log into by entering the username and password of the default
administrator account. You are forced to change the default username and
password after the first login. See Changing the User Name and Password
of the Default Administrator Account at Your First Login, page 27. You
also may want to change the user login settings for authentication. See
Configuring the User Authentication Settings, page 277.

Prevention Service (IPS), Web URL Filter, Web Reputation Filter, Anti-Virus,
and Email Reputation Filter are disabled. For more information about how to
configure the security services, see Security Services, page 210.
•
Firewall: By default, the firewall prevents inbound traffic and allows all
outbound traffic. If you want to allow some inbound traffic or prevent some
outbound traffic, you must customize firewall access rules. The security
appliance supports up to 100 custom access rules. See Configuring the
Firewall Access Rules to Control Inbound and Outbound Traffic,
page 178.
•
VPN: By default, the VPN feature is disabled. The security appliance can
function as a Cisco IPSec VPN server or a Cisco VPN hardware client, or as
a SSL VPN gateway so that remote users can securely access the corporate
network resources over the VPN tunnels. You can also establish a secure
IPSec VPN tunnel between two sites that are physically separated by using
the Site-to-Site VPN feature. For more information about how to configure the
VPN features, see VPN, page 232.

•
HASH: Specify the authentication algorithm for the VPN header. There are
two HASH algorithms supported by the security appliance: SHA1 and MD5.
NOTE Ensure that the authentication algorithm is configured identically on
both sides.
•
•
•
STEP 3
Authentication: Specify the authentication method that the security
appliance uses to establish the identity of each IPSec peer.
PRE-SHARE: Uses a simple password based key to authenticate. The
alpha-numeric key is shared with IKE peer. Pre-shared keys do not scale
well with a growing network but are easier to set up in a small network.
RSA-SIG: Uses a digital certificate to authenticate. RSA-SIG is a digital
certificate with keys generated by the RSA signatures algorithm. In this
case, a certificate must be configured in order for the RSA-Signature to
work.
D-H Group: Choose the Diffie-Hellman group identifier. The identifier is used
by two IPsec peers to derive a shared secret without transmitting it to each
other. The D-H Group sets the strength of the algorithm in bits. The default is
D-H Group 5. The lower the Diffie-Hellman group number, the less CPU time
it requires to execute. The higher the Diffie-Hellman group number, the
greater the security.
Group 2 (1024-bit)
Group 5 (1536-bit)
Group 14 (2048-bit)
Lifetime: Enter the number of seconds for the IKE Security Association to
remain valid. The default is 24 hours. As a general rule, a shorter lifetime
provides more secure ISAKMP negotiations. However, with shorter lifetimes,
the security appliance sets up future IPsec SAs more quickly.

that it has not been modified in transit. The default is ESP_SHA1_HMAC.
•
STEP 3
ESP_SHA1_HMAC: Authentication with SHA_1 (160-bit).
ESP_MD5_HMAC: Authentication with MD5 (128-bit). MD5 has a smaller
digest and is considered to be slightly faster than SHA_1. A successful
(but extremely difficult) attack against MD5 has occurred; however, the
HMAC variant IKE uses prevents this attack.
Encryption: Choose the symmetric encryption algorithm that protects data
transmitted between two IPSec peers. The default is ESP-3DES. The
Advanced Encryption Standard supports key lengths of 128, 192, 256 bits.
ESP_3DES: Encryption with 3DES (168-bit).
ESP_AES_128: Encryption with AES (128-bit).

Using Cisco IPSec VPN to Establish the IPSec VPN Tunnels
The security appliance can function as a Cisco IPSec VPN server to allow the
remote users to establish the IPSec tunnels and securely access the corporate
network resources.
The Cisco IPSec VPN server pushes the security policies to remote clients so that
remote clients have up-to-date policies in place before establishing the
connections. This flexibility allows mobile and remote users to access critical data
and applications on the corporate Intranet. The remote client can be a Cisco
device that supports the Cisco VPN hardware client or a PC running the Cisco
VPN Client software (v4.x or v5.x).

Configuring IP Routing Mode
Configuring IP Routing Mode
Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) is a new IP protocol designed to replace IPv4, the
Internet protocol that is predominantly deployed and extensively used throughout
the world. IPv6 quadruples the number of network address bits from 32 bits (in
IPv4) to 128 bits, resulting in an exponentially larger address space. You can
configure the security appliance to support IPv6 addressing on the WAN, LAN, and
DMZ.
By default, only IPv4 addressing is supported. If you need to configure IPv6
addressing, enable the IPv4/IPv6 mode.
STEP 1
Click Networking -> IPv4/IPv6 Routing Mode.
The IPv4/IPv6 Routing Mode window opens.
STEP 2
Click IPv4/IPv6 mode to enable both IPv4 and IPv6 addressing, or click IPv4 only
mode to enable only IPv4 addressing.

Configuring 802.1X Access Control on Physical Ports
Port-Based Access Control configures IEEE 802.1X port-based authentication to
prevent unauthorized devices (802.1X-capable clients) from gaining access to the
network.
The IEEE 802.1X standard defines a client-server-based access control and
authentication protocol that restricts unauthorized devices from connecting to a
LAN through publicly accessible ports. The authentication server authenticates
each client (supplicant in Windows 2000, XP, Vista, Windows 7, and Mac OS)
connected to a port before making available any service offered by the security
appliance or the LAN.
Until the client is authenticated, 802.1X access control allows only Extensible
Authentication Protocol over LAN (EAPOL) traffic through the port to which the
client is connected. After authentication is successful, normal traffic can pass
through the port.
This feature simplifies the security management by allowing you to control access
from a master database in a single server (although you can use up to three
RADIUS servers to provide backups in case access to the primary server fails). It
also means that user can enter the same authorized RADIUS username and
password pair for authentication, regardless of which switch is the access point
into the LAN.

Networking
Port Management
STEP 1
Click Networking -> Port -> Port-Based Access Control.
The Port-Based Access Control window opens.
STEP 2
Specify the RADIUS servers for authentication.
The security appliance predefines three RADIUS groups. You can choose a
predefined RADIUS group from the RADIUS Index drop-down list to authenticate
the users on 802.1X-capable clients. The RADIUS server settings of the selected
group are displayed. You can also edit the RADIUS server settings here but the
settings that you specify will replace the default settings of the selected group.
For more information, see Configuring the RADIUS Servers, page 319.
STEP 3
To configure the access control settings for a physical port, click Edit in the Action
column.
The Port-Base Access Control window opens.
STEP 4
STEP 5
Enter the following information:
•
Access Control: Check the box to enable 802.1X access control. This
feature is not available for Trunk ports.
•
Authenticated VLAN: If you enable 802.1X access control, choose the
authenticated VLAN to which this port is assigned. The users who
authenticated successfully can access the authenticated VLAN through the
port. If the authentication fails, block the access on the port.
•
Guest Authenticated: If you enable 802.1X access control, check the box to
enable Guest Authentication.
•
Authenticated VLAN: If you enable Guest Authentication, choose the guest
VLAN to be associated with the port. If the authentication fails, the port is
assigned to the selected guest VLAN instead of shutting down. For 802.1Xincapable clients, the port is also assigned to the selected guest VLAN when
Guest Authentication is enabled.
You can perform other actions as follows:
•
Access Control: Check the box in this column to enable 802.1X access
control, or uncheck the box to disable it.
•
Guest Authentication: After you enable 802.1X access control, check the
box in this column to enable Guest Authentication, or uncheck the box to
disable it.

Networking
Port Management
STEP 6
•
Forced Authentication: Disables 802.1X access control and causes the port
to transition to the authorized state without any authentication exchange
required. The port transmits and receives normal traffic without 802.1Xbased authentication of the client.
•
Forced Unauthentication: Causes the port to remain in the unauthorized
state, ignoring all attempts by the client to authenticate. The security
appliance cannot provide authentication services to the client through the
port.
•
Auto: Enables 802.1X access control and causes the port to begin in the
unauthorized state, allowing only EAPOL frames to be sent and received
through the port. The authentication process begins when the link state of
the port transitions from down to up, or when an EAPOL-start frame is
received. The security appliance requests the identity of the client and
begins relaying authentication messages between the client and the
authentication server. Each client attempting to access the network is
uniquely identified by the security appliance by using the client's MAC
address.

validate the users before allowing them access to server resources.
Almost all network operating system remote servers support PAP.
CHAP: Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) is an
authentication scheme used by Point to Point Protocol (PPP) servers to
validate the identity of remote clients. CHAP periodically verifies the
identity of the client by using a three-way handshake. The verification is
based on a shared secret (such as the client user's password).
MS-CHAP: MS-CHAP is the Microsoft version of the CHAP. The protocol
exists in two versions, MS-CHAPv1 (defined in RFC 2433) and MSCHAPv2 (defined in RFC 2759).

MS-CHAPv2: MS-CHAPv2 provides mutual authentication between
peers by piggybacking a peer challenge on the Response packet and an
authenticator response on the Success packet.
•
Keep Live: Keeps the connection always on, regardless of the level of
activity. This option is recommended if you pay a flat fee for your Internet
service.
•
Max Idle Time: Lets the security appliance disconnect from the Internet
after a specified period of inactivity (Idle Time). If you choose this option,
enter the value in minutes in the Maximum Idle Time field. This option is
recommended if your ISP fees are based on the time that you spend online.
•
MTU: The Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) is the size, in bytes, of the
largest packet that can be passed on. Choose Auto to use the default MTU
size, or choose Manual if you want to specify another size.
•
MTU Size: If you choose Manual, enter the custom MTU size in bytes.
NOTE For PPPoE connections, the default MTU size is 1492 bytes. Unless a
change is required by your ISP, it is recommended that the MTU

Configuring the WAN Redundancy
NOTE When the security appliance is working in Dual WAN mode, if one WAN link is down,
the WAN redundancy and Policy-based Routing settings are ignored and all traffic
is handled by the active WAN port.
This section describes how to configure the WAN redundancy and the link failover
detection settings. It includes the following topics:
•
Loading Balancing for WAN Redundancy, page 113
•
Load Balancing with Policy-based Routing Configuration Example,

•
Failover for WAN Redundancy, page 116
•
Routing Table for WAN Redundancy, page 117
•
Configuring the Link Failover Detection, page 117
Loading Balancing for WAN Redundancy
The Load Balancing can segregate traffic between links that are not of the same
speed. For example, you can bind the high-volume services through the port that
is connected to a high speed link, and bind the low-volume services to the port
that is connected to the slower link.
The Load Balancing is implemented for outgoing traffic and not for incoming traffic.
To maintain better control of WAN port traffic, consider making the WAN port
Internet address public and keeping the other one private.
Figure?2 shows an example of Dual WAN configured with the Load Balancing.

Configuring the WAN Redundancy
NOTE To configure the Loading Balancing, make sure that you configure both WAN ports
to Keep Live. If the WAN port is configured to time out after a specified period of
inactivity, then the Loading Balancing is not applicable.
STEP 1
Click Networking -> WAN Redundancy -> WAN Redundancy Operation
Configuration.
The WAN Redundancy Operation Configuration opens.
STEP 2
STEP 3
Use the Load Balancing mode if you want to use both ISP links simultaneously. The
two links will carry data for the protocols that are bound to them. Enter the
following information:
•
Equal Load Balancing (Round Robin): Re-orders the WAN interfaces for
Round Robin selection. The order is as follows: WAN1 and WAN2. The Round
Robin will then repeat back to WAN1 and continue the order. This is the
default setting.
•
Weighted Load Balancing: Distributes the bandwidth to two WAN ports by
the weighted percange or by the weighted link bandwidth. If you choose this
mode, choose one of the following options and finish the setting:
Weighted By Percentage: Allows you to set the percentage for each
WAN, such as 80% percentage bandwidth for WAN1 and lest 20%
percentage bandwidth for WAN2.
Weighted By Link Bandwidth: Allows you to set the rate limiting for each
WAN, such as 10 Mbps for WAN1 and 5 Mbps for WAN2.
If you choose Load Balancing as the WAN redundancy operation mode, you can
optionally enable the Policy-based Routing (PBR) settings to determine how the
traffic is balanced between the two ISP links. The PBR settings specify the internal
IP and/or service going through a specified WAN port to provide more flexbile and
granular traffic handling capabilities.
•
Policy Based Routing Enable: Click On to enable the PBR settings, or click
Off to disable it. To configure the PBR settings, click Configure PBR.
NOTE If you enable PBR, the PBR settings will be applied first and then the
load balancing settings next.

STEP 5
To check the connection of both links at regular intervals after you enable the Load

configure the Link Failover Detection settings, go to the Networking -> Link
Failover Detection Settings page. See Configuring the Link Failover Detection,
page 117.
Load Balancing with Policy-based Routing Configuration
Example
Use Cases: The customer has two lines, one is a cable link and another is a DSL
link. The majority of trafffic goes through the cable link since it has larger
bandwidth, and the rest traffic goes through the DSL link. As lots of secure
websites (such as bank, or online shopping) are sensitive to flip flop the source IP
address, let the traffic for https, ftp, video, and game go through the cable link.
Configuration Tasks:
•
Configure a configurable port as the secondary WAN port (WAN2). See
Configuring the Secondary WAN, page 104.
•
Connect the cable modem to the primary WAN port (WAN1), and connect
the DSL modem to the secondary WAN port (WAN2).
•
Enable the Weighted Load Balancing mode, and set the weighted value of
WAN1 to 80% and the weighted value of WAN2 to 20%. See Loading
Balancing for WAN Redundancy, page 113.
•
Enable the Policy-based Routing (PBR) feature, and configure PBR rules so
that the traffic for https, ftp, video, and game is directed to the WAN1 port.
See Configuring Policy-based Routing Settings, page 134.
•
Enable the IP Bandwidth, Service Bandwidth, and WAN Bandwidth reports
so that you can check the WAN bandwidth usage by IP address, service,
and time. See Reports, page 85.

Failover for WAN Redundancy
Use the Failover mode when you want to use one ISP link as a backup. If a failure is
detected on the primary link, then the security appliance directs all Internet traffic
to the backup link. When the primary link regains connectivity, all Internet traffic is
directed to the primary link and the backup link becomes idle. By default, the
primary WAN is set as the primary link and the secondary WAN is set to the
backup link.
NOTE When the security appliance is working in the Failover mode, the Policy-based
Routing settings will be ignored.

Configuring the DMZ
Configuring the DMZ
A DMZ (Demarcation Zone or Demilitarized Zone) is a subnetwork that is behind
the firewall but that is open to the public. By placing your public services on a
DMZ, you can add an additional layer of security to the LAN. The public can
connect to the services on the DMZ but cannot penetrate the LAN. You should
configure your DMZ to include any hosts that must be exposed to the WAN (such
as web or email servers).
The DMZ configuration is identical to the VLAN configuration. There are no
restrictions on the IP address or subnet assigned to the DMZ port, except it cannot
be identical to the IP address given to the predefined VLANs.

Security Levels for Zones
The security appliance supports five security levels for zones as described below.
The greater value, the higher the permission level. The VPN and SSLVPN zones
have the same security level.
•
Trusted (100): Offers the highest level of trust. The LAN zone is always
trusted.
•
VPN (75): Used exclusively by the predefined VPN and SSLVPN zones. All
traffic to and from a VPN zone is encrypted.
•
Public (50): Offers a higher level of trust than a Guest zone, but a lower
level of trust than a VPN zone. The DMZ zone is a public zone.
•
Guest (25): Offers a higher level of trust than an untrusted zone, but a lower
level of trust than a public zone. Guest zones can only be used for guest

Configuring Policy-based Routing Settings
Policy-based Routing (PBR) allows users to specify the internal IP and/or service
going through a specified WAN port to provide more flexbile and granular traffic
handling capabilities.
This feature can be used to segregate traffic between links that are not of the
same speed. High volume traffic can be routed through the port connected to a
high speed link and low volume traffic can be routed through the port connected
to the slow link.
For example, although HTTP traffics is typically routed through WAN1, by using
PBR you can bind the HTTP protocol to WAN1 and bind the FTP protocol to WAN2.
In this case, the security appliance automatically channels FTP data through
WAN2.
NOTE Make sure that you configure a secondary WAN connection and that the WAN
redundancy is set to the Load Balancing or Routing Table mode before you
configure the policy-based routing settings. See Configuring the Secondary
WAN, page 104 and Configuring the WAN Redundancy, page 112.

Priority of Routing Rules
If multiple routing features operate simultaneously, the security appliance first
matches up with the Policy-based Routing rules, and then matches up with the
Static Routing and default Routing rules.
For example, if WAN redundancy is set to the Weighted Loading Balancing mode,
and the PBR and Static Routing rules are configured, the routing priority works as
follows:
1. If all traffic cannot match up with the PBR or Static Routing rules, all traffic
follows the Weighted Loading Balance settings.
2. If traffic A matches up with the PBR or Static Routing rules, traffic A will be firstly
handled by the PBR or Static Routing rules, while other traffic follows the
Weighted Loading Balance settings.
Dynamic DNS
Dynamic DNS (DDNS) is an Internet service that allows routers with varying public
IP addresses to be located using Internet domain names. If your ISP has not
provided you with a static IP and your WAN connection is configured to use DHCP
to obtain an IP address dynamically, then DDNS provides the domain name to map
the dynamic IP address for your website. To use DDNS, you must set up an

IGMP
STEP 5
Click Save to apply your settings.
IGMP
The Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) is a communication protocol
used by hosts and adjacent routers on IP networks to establish multicast group
memberships. IGMP can be used for online streaming video and gaming, and
allows more efficient use of resources when supporting these types of
applications.
The IGMP Proxy mechanism enables hosts that are not directly connected to a
downstream router to join a multicast group sourced from an upstream network.
IGMP snooping constrains IPv4 multicast traffic at Layer 2 by configuring Layer 2
LAN ports dynamically to forward IPv4 multicast traffic only to those ports that
want to receive it. The IGMP snooping is based on the IGMP version 3 that is
backward compatible with the previous versions.
NOTE By default, the multicast traffic from Any zone to Any zone is blocked by the default
firewall access rules. When you enable IGMP Proxy and want to receive the
multicast packets from WAN to LAN, you need to uncheck the Block Multicast
Packets box in the Firewall -> Attack Protection page, and create a firewall
access rule to permit the multicast traffic from WAN to LAN. For more information,
see Configuring a Firewall Access Rule to Allow the Multicast Traffic, page 185.

•
STEP 3
IGMPv2: Leave messages are added to the protocol. This allows group
membership termination to be quickly reported to the routing protocol,
which is important for high-bandwidth multicast groups and/or subnets
with highly volatile group membership.
IGMPv3: Major revision of the protocol. It allows hosts to specify the lists
of hosts from which they want to receive traffic. Traffic from other hosts
is blocked inside the network. It also allows hosts to block packets inside
the network that come from sources sending unwanted traffic.
IGMP Snooping: You can use IGMP snooping in subnets that receive IGMP
queries from either IGMP or the IGMP snooping querier. Click On to enable

Configuring the WAN Queue Settings
The security appliance supports six queues for WAN ports, Q1 to Q6. There are
three ways of determining how traffic in queues is handled: Strict Priority (SP),
Weighted Round Robin (WRR), and Low Latency Queueing (LLQ).
Cisco ISA500 Series Integrated Security Appliance Administrator Guide
142
4
Networking
Configuring the Quality of Service
STEP 1
SP
Egress traffic from the highest-priority queue (Q1) is transmitted
first. Traffic from the lower queues is processed only after the
highest queue has been transmitted, thus providing the highest
level of priority of traffic to the highest numbered queue.
WRR
Distributes the bandwidth between the classes using the
weighted round robin scheme. The weights decide how fast each
queue can send packets. In WRR mode the number of packets
sent from the queue is proportional to the weight of the queue.
The higher the weight, the more frames are sent.
LLQ
Integrates the SP and WRR queues to provide strict priority
queuing (PQ) to Class-Based Weighted Fair Queuing (CBWFQ).
LLQ allows delay-sensitive data (such as voice) to be given
preferential treatment over other traffic by letting the data to be
dequeued and sent first.
Click Networking -> QoS -> WAN QoS -> Queue Settings.
The Queue Settings window opens.
STEP 2
Specify the way of determining how traffic in queues is handled for each WAN
port.
•
SP: Set the order in which queues are serviced, traffic scheduling for the
selected queue and all higher queues is based strictly on the queue priority,
starting with Q1 (the highest priority queue) and going to the next lower
queue when each queue is complete.
•
WRR: Enter the WRR weight, in percentage, assigned to the queues that you
want to use. Traffic scheduling for the selected queue is based on WRR.
•
LLQ: Applies SP mode to Q1 and WRR mode to Q2 to Q6. Q1 has the highest
priority and is always processed to completion before the lower priority
queues. If you choose LLQ, enter the amount of bandwidth assigned to Q1,
and enter the WRR weights for other queues that you want to use.
•
Random Early Detection: Check the box to enable the Random Early
Detection (RED) mechanism. RED is a congestion avoidance mechanism that
takes advantage of TCP's congestion control mechanism. By randomly
dropping packets prior to periods of high congestion, RED tells the packet
source to decrease its transmission rate. Assuming the packet source is
using TCP, it will decrease its transmission rate until all the packets reach
their destination, indicating that the congestion is cleared.

Basic Radio Settings
You can change the wireless network mode to suit the devices in your network,
specify the wireless channel and bandwidth for operation to resolve issues with
interference from other access points in the area, or enable the U-APSD and SSID
Isolation if needed.
STEP 1
Click Wireless -> Basic Settings.
The Basic Settings window opens.
STEP 2
Enter the following information:
•
Wireless Radio: Click On to turn the wireless radio on and hence enable the
wireless network, or click Off to turn the wireless radio off. By default, the
security appliance turns on the wireless radio with predefined standard
settings.
•
Wireless Network Mode: Choose the 802.11 modulation technique. The
ISA550W and ISA550W supports the following radio modes:
•
802.11b only: Choose this mode if all devices in the wireless network
use 802.11b. Only 802.11b clients can connect to the access point.
802.11g only: Choose this mode if all devices in the wireless network
use 802.11g. Only 802.11g clients can connect to the access point.
802.11b/g mixed: Choose this mode if some devices in the wireless
network use 802.11b and others use 802.11g. Both 802.11b and 802.11g
clients can connect to the access point.
802.11n only: Choose this mode if all devices in the wireless network
can support 802.11n. Only 802.11n clients operating in the 2.4 GHz
frequency can connect to the access point.
802.11g/n mixed: Choose this mode to allow 802.11g and 802.11n
clients operating in the 2.4 GHz frequency to connect to the access point.
802.11b/g/n mixed: Choose this mode to allow 802.11b, 802.11g, and
802.11n clients operating in the 2.4 GHz frequency to connect to the
access point.

•
Bandwidth Channel: Choose 20 MHz or choose Auto to let the system
determine the optical bandwidth channel to use. This setting is specific to
802.11n traffic.
•
Extension Channel: If you choose Auto as the bandwidth channel, choose
either Lower or Upper.
•
U-APSD: Click Enable to enable the Unscheduled Automatic Power Save
Delivery (U-APSD) feature to conserve the power, or click Disable to disable
it.
•
SSID Isolation: Click Enable to enable the SSID Isolation feature so that
SSIDs will not be able to see each other when SSIDs belong to the same
VLAN, or click Disable to disable it. When you enable the SSID Isolation
(among SSIDs), traffic on one SSID will not be forwarded to any other SSIDs.
In the SSID Table area, the SSID table lists four predefined SSIDs on your security
appliance. If needed, you can perform the following tasks:
•
Enable: Check the box to enable the SSID, uncheck the box to disable the
SSID. By default, all four SSID are enabled.
•
SSID Name: Enter an unique identifier for the SSID.
•
SSID Broadcast: Check this box to broadcast the SSID in its beacon frames.
All wireless devices within range are able to see the SSID when they scan
for available networks. Uncheck this box to prevent auto-detection of the
SSID. In this case, users must know the SSID to set up a wireless connection
to this SSID. By default, SSID Broadcast is enabled for each SSID.
NOTE Disabling the SSID Broadcast is sufficient to prevent clients from
accidentally connecting to your network, but it will not prevent even
the simplest of attempts by a hacker to connect or monitor
unencrypted traffic. Suppressing the SSID broadcast offers a very
minimal level of protection on an otherwise exposed network (such as
a guest network) where the priority is making it easy for clients to get
a connection and where no sensitive information is available.
•
WMM: Check this box to enable the Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) QoS feature for
the SSID. WMM refers to QoS over Wi-Fi. QoS enables Wi-Fi SSIDs to
prioritize traffic and optimizes the way shared network resources are
allocated among different applications.

Advanced Radio Settings
Use the Advanced Settings page to specify the advanced radio settings, such as
Guard Interval, CTS Protection Mode, and so forth.
STEP 1
Click Wireless -> Advanced Settings.
The Wireless Advanced Settings window opens.
STEP 2
Enter the following information:
•
Guard Interval: Choose either Long (800 ns) or Short (400 ns) that the
security appliance will retry a frame transmission that fails.
NOTE The short frame is only available when the specified wireless network
mode includes 802.11n.
•
•
CTS Protection Mode: CTS (Clear-To-Send) Protection Mode function
boosts the ability of the access point to catch all Wireless-G transmissions
but will severely decrease performance.
Click AUTO if you want to perform a CTS handshake before transmitting
a packet. This mode can minimize collisions among hidden stations.
Click Disabled if you want to permanently disable this feature.
Power Output: You can adjust the output power of the access point to get
the appropriate coverage for your wireless network. Choose the level you
need for your environment. If you are not sure of which setting to select, then
keep the default setting, 100%.

Configuring the Radio Settings
STEP 3
•
Beacon Interval: Beacon frames are transmitted by the access point at
regular intervals to announce the existence of the wireless network. Set the
interval by entering a value in milliseconds. Enter a value from 20 to 999. The
default is 100 milliseconds, which means that beacon frames are sent every
100 milliseconds.
•
DTIM Interval: The Delivery Traffic Information Map (DTIM) message is an
element that is included in some beacon frames. It indicates that the client
stations that are currently sleeping in low-power mode and have buffered
data on the access point awaiting pickup. Set the interval by entering a value
in beacon frames. Enter a value from 1 to 255. The default is 1 beacon frame,
which means that the DTIM message is included in every second beacon
frame.
•
RTS Threshold: The RTS threshold determines the packet size that requires
a Request To Send (RTS)/Clear To Send (CTS) handshake before sending. A
low threshold setting can be useful in areas where many client devices are
associating with the wireless device, or in areas where the clients are far
apart and can detect only the access point but not other clients. Although a
low threshold value consumes more bandwidth and reduces the throughput
of the packet, frequent RTS packets can help the network to recover from
interference or collisions. Set the threshold by entering the packet size in
bytes. Enter a value from 1 to 2347. The default value is 2347, which
effectively disables RTS.
•
Fragmentation Threshold: The fragmentation threshold is the frame length
that requires packets to be broken up (fragmented) into two or more frames.
Setting a lower value can reduce collisions because collisions occur more
often in the transmission of long frames, which occupy the channel for a
longer time. Use a low setting in areas where communication is poor or
where there is a great deal of radio interference. Set the threshold by
entering the frame length in bytes. Enter a value from 256 to 2346. The
default value is 2346, which effectively disables fragmentation.

Configuring the Access Points
The ISA550W and ISA570W support four SSIDs. By default, each SSID has Open
security and is identifying itself to all wireless devices that are in range. For
security purposes, we strongly recommend that you configure each SSID with the
highest level of security that is supported by the wireless devices that you want to
allow into your network.
Multiple SSIDs can segment the wireless LAN into multiple broadcast domains.
This configuration helps you to maintain better control over broadcast and

Description
WPA
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) provides better security than
WEP because it uses dynamic key encryption. This
standard was implemented as an intermediate measure to
replace WEP, pending final completion of the 802.11i
standard for WPA2.
The following WPA security modes are supported on your
security appliance. Choose one of them if you need to allow
access to devices that do not support WPA2.
WPA2
•
WPA-Personal: WPA-Personal supports TKIP
(Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) or AES (Advanced
Encryption System) encryption mechanisms for data
encryption (default is TKIP). TKIP uses dynamic keys
and incorporates Message Integrity Code (MIC) to
provide protection against hackers. AES uses
symmetric 128-bit block data encryption.
•
WPA-Enterprise: WPA-Enterprise uses an external
RADIUS server for client authentication. WPAEnterprise supports TKIP and AES encryption
mechanisms (default is TKIP). This security mode is
only available when a RADIUS server is connected to
the SSID.
WPA2 provides the best security for wireless transmissions.
This method implements the security standards specified in
the final version of 802.11i.
The following WPA2 security modes are supported on your
security appliance:
•
WPA2-Personal: WPA2-Personal always uses AES
encryption mechanism for data encryption.
•
WPA2-Enterprise: WPA2-Enterprise uses an
external RADIUS server for client authentication.
WPA2-Enterprise always uses AES encryption
mechanism for data encryption. This security mode is
only available when a RADIUS server is connected to

WPA2.
The following WPA+WPA2 security modes are supported
on your security appliance:
RADIUS
•
WPA/WPA2-Personal Mixed: This security mode
supports the transition from WPA?Personal to
WPA2?Personal. You can have client devices that use
either WPA?Personal or WPA2?Personal.
•
WPA/WPA2-Enterprise Mixed: This security mode
supports the transition from WPA?Enterprise to
WPA2?Enterprise. You can have client devices that
use either WPA?Enterprise or WPA2?Enterprise.
This security mode uses the RADIUS servers for client
authentication and uses dynamic WEP key generation for
data encryption.
This security mode is only available when a RADIUS server
is connected to the SSID.
STEP 4
If you choose Open as the security mode, no other options are configurable. This
mode means that any data transferred to and from the SSID is not encrypted. This
security mode can be useful during initial network configuration or for problem
solving, but it is not recommended for regular use on the Internal network because
it is not secure.
STEP 5
If you choose WEP as the security mode, enter the following information:
•
Authentication Type: Choose either Open System or Shared key, or
choose Auto to let the security appliance accept both Open System and
Shared Key schemes.
•
Default Transmit Key: Choose a key index as the default transmit key. Key
indexes 1 through 4 are available.

ASCII), 128 bits (26 hex digits), or 128 bits (13 ASCII). The default is 64 bits
(10 hex digits). The larger size keys provide stronger encryption, thus making
the key more difficult to crack.
•
Passphrase: If you want to generate WEP keys by using a Passphrase, enter
any alphanumeric phrase (longer than 8 characters for optimal security) and
then click Generate to generate four unique WEP keys. Select one key to use
as the key that devices must have to use the wireless network.
•
Key 1-4: If a WEP Passphrase is not specified, a key can be entered directly
into one of the Key boxes. The length of the key should be 5 ASCII characters
(or 10 hex characters) for 64-bit WEP and 13 ASCII characters (or 26 hex
characters) for 128-bit WEP.
If you choose WPA-Personal as the security mode, enter the following
information:

new trusted zone called “Data”, a certain of firewall access rules are automatically
generated to permit or block the traffic from the Data zone to other zones or from
other zones to the Data zone. The permit or block action is determined by the
security levels of the From and To zones. For example, the traffic from the Data
zone to the predefined WAN zone is permitted, but the traffic from the Data zone to
the predefined LAN zone is blocked.

Configuring the Firewall Access Rules to Control Inbound and Outbound Traffic
NOTE The firewall access rules only support for inter-zones.
Priorities of Firewall Access Rules
The security appliance includes three types of firewall access rules:
•
Default access rules: The firewall access rules that are predefined on your
security appliance for all predefined zones and new zones. The default
access rules cannot be deleted and edited.
•
Custom access rules: The firewall access rules that are customized by
users. The security appliance supports up to 100 custom access rules.
•
VPN access rules: The firewall access rules that are automatically
generated by the VPN access control settings. The VPN access rules
cannot be edited in the Firewall -> ACL Rules -> Rule page. To edit the
VPN access control settings, go to the VPN pages. For more information
about the VPN access control settings, see VPN, page 232.
All firewall access rules are displayed in the Rule table and sorted by the priority.
The custom access rules have the highest priority. The VPN access rules have
higher priorities than the default access rules, but lower than the custom access
rules.
Preliminary Tasks for Configuring the Firewall Access Rules
Depending on the firewall settings that you want to use, you might need to
complete the following tasks before you configure the firewall access rules:
•
To create the firewall access rule that applies only to a specific zone except
the predefined zones, first create the zone. See Configuring the Zones,
page 127.
•
To create the firewall access rule that applies to a specific service or
service group, first create the service or service group object. See Service
Management, page 154.
•
To create the firewall access rule that applies only to a specific address or
group address, first create the address or group address object. See
Address Management, page 152.

Configuring the NAT Rules to Securely Access a Remote
Network
Network address translation (NAT) enables private IP networks to connect to the
Internet. NAT replaces a private IP address with a public IP address, translating the
private addresses in the internal private network into legal, routable addresses
that can be used on the public Internet. In this way, NAT conserves public
addresses because it can be configured to advertise only one public address for
the entire network to the outside world.
NAT can also provide the following benefits:
•
Security: Keeping internal IP addresses hidden discourages direct attacks.
•
IP routing solutions: Overlapping IP addresses are not a problem when
you use NAT.
•
Flexibility: You can change internal IP addressing schemes without
affecting the public addresses available externally; for example, for a server
accessible to the Internet, you can maintain a fixed IP address for Internet
use, but internally, you can change the server address.

Configuring Dynamic PAT Rules
Dynamic PAT can only be used to establish connections from private network to
public network. Dynamic PAT translates multiple private addresses to one or more
public IP address.
NOTE For the duration of the translation, a remote host can initiate a connection to the
translated host if a firewall access rule allows it. Because the port address (both
real and mapped) is unpredictable, a connection to the host is unlikely.
Nevertheless, in this case you can rely on the security of the firewall access rules.
STEP 1
Click Firewall -> NAT -> Dynamic PAT.
The Dynamic PAT window opens.
STEP 2

STEP 4
Specify the PAT IP address for each WAN interface.

Configuring the NAT Rules to Securely Access a Remote Network
Configuring Static NAT Rules
Static NAT creates a fixed translation of a real address to a mapped address.
Because the mapped address is the same for each consecutive connection, static
NAT allows bidirectional connection initiation, both to and from the host (if a
firewall access rule allows it). With dynamic PAT, on the other hand, each host uses
a different address or port for each subsequent translation, so bidirectional
initiation is not supported.
NOTE The security appliance supports up to 128 Static NAT mapping rules.
NOTE You must create a firewall access rule to allow the access so that the Static NAT
rule can function properly.

Configuring Port Forwarding Rules
Port forwarding forwards a TCP/IP packet traversing a Network Address
Translator (NAT) gateway to a pre-determined network port on a host within a
NAT-masqueraded, typically private network based on the port number on which
it was received at the gateway from the originating host.
Use the Port Forwarding page to assign a port number to a service that is
associated with the application you want to run, such as web servers, ftp servers,
email servers, or other specialized Internet applications.
NOTE You must create a firewall access rule to allow the access so that the port
forwarding rule can function properly.
NOTE To open an internal FTP server to Internet, make sure that the internal FTP server is
listening on TCP port 21 or the FTP server and client must use the active mode
when the internal FTP server is listening on some other TCP port. Otherwise the
FTP client cannot access the FTP server.

Configuring Port Triggering Rules
Port triggering opens an incoming port for a specified type of traffic on a defined
outgoing port. When a LAN device makes a connection on one of the defined
outgoing ports, the security appliance opens the specified incoming port to
support the exchange of data. The open ports will be closed again after 600
seconds when the data exchange is complete.
Port triggering is more flexible and secure than port forwarding, because the
incoming ports are not open all the time. They are open only when a program is
actively using the trigger port.
Some applications may require port triggering. Such applications require that,
when external devices connect to them, they receive data on a specific port or
range of ports in order to function properly. The security appliance must send all
incoming data for that application only on the required port or range of ports. You
can specify a port triggering rule by defining the type of traffic (TCP or UDP) and
the range of incoming and outgoing ports to open when enabled.

table.
Security Services
Description
Intrusion
Prevention System
The Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) service can protect
the zones for a given set of categories. IPS monitors
network traffic for malicious or unwanted behaviors on
the security appliance and can react, in real-time, to block
or prevent those activities. For more information, see
Intrusion Prevention Service, page 214.
Anti-Virus
The Anti-Virus service prevents network threats over a
multitude of protocols including HTTP, FTP, POP3, SMTP,
CIFS, NETBIOS, and IMAP. For more information, see AntiVirus, page 220.
Email Reputation
Filter
The Email Reputation Filter service detects the email
sender’s reputation score. If the reputation score is below
a threshold, then the email is blocked or tagged as SPAM
or SUSPECT SPAM. For more information, see Email
Reputation Filter, page 224.
Web URL Filter
The Web URL Filter service provides protection against
URL categories. For more information, see Web URL
Filter, page 226.
Web Reputation
Filter
The Web Reputation Filter service detects threats based
on a web page’s reputation score. Web pages with
reputation scores below a specific threshold are
considered threats and blocked. For more information,
see Web Reputation Filter, page 230.
Network
Reputation
The Network Reputation service checks the source and
destination address of each packet against the address
blacklist to determine whether to proceed or drop the
packet. For more information, see Network Reputation,

Managing the Security Services
Security License
The security services are licensable. The security license is valid for one year or
three years depending on the bundle type. By default, the security appliance
comes with a one year bundle license for all security services. To renew the
security license before it expires, go to the Device Management -> License
Management page. See Managing the Security License, page 307.
Priority of Security Services
Multiple security services can work simultaneously to protect your network. If you
enable both the Web URL Filter and Web Reputation Filter services, the whitelist
and blacklist of websites that you defined in the Web URL Filter settings cannot
override the Web Reputation Filter settings.
For example, a website is permitted by the Web URL Filter setting, but it has
reputation score lower than the web reputation threshold, the connection to this
website will be blocked even if it is in the whitelist, unless you change the web
reputation threshold.
Managing the Security Services
Use the Dashboard page to view the status of the security license, enable or
disable the security services, and check new updates for all signature-based
security services.
CAUTION Enabling the security services consumes additional system resources and may
impact the system performance. Go to the Status -> Dashboard page to view the
CPU and memory utilization. To conserve the system resources, disable the
security services when they are no longer needed.
STEP 1
Click Security Services -> Dashboard.

processed and the total number of websites blocked by day for the last seven
days.
For more information about the security service reports, go to the Status ->
Report -> Security Services page. See Reports of Security Services, page 87.
Intrusion Prevention Service
The Intrusion Prevention Service (IPS) feature can protect the zones for a given set
of categories. IPS monitors network traffic for malicious or unwanted behavior on
the device and can react, in real-time, to block or prevent those activities.
When an attack is detected, offending packets are dropped or alerts are logged
depending on the administrative settings, but all other traffic is unaffected. Unlike
traditional firewalls, IPS makes access control decisions based on application
content, rather than IP address or ports.
CAUTION Enabling IPS consumes additional system resources and may impact the system
performance. Go to the Status -> Dashboard page to view the CPU and memory
utilizations. To conserve the system resources, disable the IPS service when it is no
longer needed.

Anti-Virus
The security appliance can scan for viruses over a multitude of protocols including
HTTP, FTP, POP3, SMTP, CIFS, NETBIOS, and IMAP. Because files containing
malicious code and viruses can also be compressed and therefore inaccessible to
conventional anti-virus solutions, the security appliance integrates advanced
decompression technology that automatically decompresses and scans the files
on a per packet basis.
NOTE The Anti-Virus feature supports virus scanning for one layer compressed files in the
zip, gzip, tar, bzip2, and rar2.0 formats.
CAUTION Enabling Anti-Virus consumes additional system resources and may impact the
system performance. Go to the Status -> Dashboard page to view the CPU and
memory utilizations. To conserve the system resources, disable the service when
it is no longer needed.

STEP 3
Select which zone to scan for virus: Specify the zones to scan the viruses
for the incoming traffic from the selected zones:
WAN zone: Choose this option to scan the viruses only for the traffic from
WAN zone to all other zones.
WAN + VPN zone: Choose this option to scan the viruses for the traffic
from both WAN and VPN zones to all other zones.
All zones: Choose this option to scan the viruses for the incoming traffic
from all zones. This is the default setting.
Specify the following settings for the protocols that you want to scan for viruses:
•
Enable: Check the box in this column to scan for the viruses for the protocol.
•
Log: Check the box in this column to log the event when viruses are
detected.
To log the Anti-Virus events, you first need to check the Log box for the
protocols, and then go to the Device Management -> Loggings pages to
configure the log settings and log facilities:
To save the Anti-Virus logs in the lcoal syslog daemon, you need to enable
the Log feature, set the log buffer size and the severity for local log, and
then check the Local Log box for the Anti-Virus log facility.
To save the Anti-Virus logs to the remote syslog server if you have a
remote syslog server support, you need to enable the Log feature,
specify the Remote Log settings, and check the Remote Log box for the
Anti-Virus log facility.
For more information about how to configure the log settings and log
facilities, and how to view the logs, see Log Management, page 302.
•
Action: Specify the preventive action for each protocol when viruses are
detected.
None: No action is required when viruses are detected.
Alert: Sends an alert email to the specified email account when viruses
are detected for the SMTP or POP3 protocol, or sends an alert message
to the user when using the HTTP protocol to download the files
containing viruses.

About VPN
A VPN provides a secure communication channel (“tunnel”) between two gateway
routers or between a remote PC and a gateway router. The security appliance
provides the following VPN solutions:
•
Cisco IPSec VPN Server: The Cisco IPSec VPN Server feature allows the
security appliance to act as a head-end device in remote access VPNs. The
server pushes the security policies to remote clients, so that remote clients
have up-to-date policies in place before establishing the connections. The
server can also terminate the VPN tunnels initiated by the clients. This
flexibility allows mobile and remote users to access critical data and
applications on corporate Intranet. See Configuring the Cisco IPSec VPN
Server, page 233.
Cisco ISA500 Series Integrated Security Appliance Administrator Guide
232
VPN
Configuring the Cisco IPSec VPN Server
•
Cisco IPSec VPN Client: The Cisco IPSec VPN Client feature minimizes the
configuration requirements at remote locations by allowing the security
appliance to work as a Cisco VPN hardware client to receive the security
policies upon the VPN tunnel from a remote Cisco IPSec VPN Server. See
Configuring the Cisco IPSec VPN Client, page 238.
•
Site-to-Site VPN: The Site-to-Site VPN tunnel connects two routers to
secure traffic between two sites that are physically separated. See
Configuring the Site-to-Site VPN, page 246.
•
SSL VPN: The SSL VPN feature allows remote users to access the
corporate network by using the Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client. Remote
access is provided through a SSL VPN gateway. See Configuring the SSL
VPN, page 257.
•
L2TP: L2TP allows remote clients to use a public IP network to secure
communicate with private corporate network servers. This protocol is
based on the client and server model. See Configuring the L2TP Server,
page 266.
NOTE The security appliance can function as a Cisco IPSec VPN server or as a Cisco
IPSec VPN client, but not both simutaneously. It does not have a default role.

Mode: The operation mode determines whether the inside hosts relative to
the Cisco VPN hardware client are accessible from the corporate network
over the IPSec VPN tunnel. Specifying a operation mode is mandatory
before making a connection because the Cisco VPN hardware client does
not have a default mode. For more information, see Modes of Operation,
page 240.
Client: Choose this mode for the group policy that is used for both the PC
running the Cisco VPN Client software and the Cisco device that works
as the Cisco VPN hardware client. In client mode, the server can assign
the IP address to the outside interface of remote clients. To define the
pool range for the clients, enter the starting and ending IP addresses in
the Start IP and End IP fields.

Restrictions for Cisco IPSec VPN Client
The Cisco IPSec VPN Client feature requires that the destination peer is a Cisco
ISA500 Series Integrated Security Appliance that works as the Cisco IPSec VPN
Server, or a Cisco IOS router (such as C871, C1801, C1812, C1841, and C2821) or a
Cisco ASA5500 platform that supports the Cisco IPSec VPN Server feature.
The Cisco IPSec VPN Client feature supports configuration of only one destination
peer. If your application requires multiple VPN tunnels, you must manually
configure the IPSec VPN and Network Address Translation/Peer Address
Translation (NAT/PAT) parameters on both client and server.
NOTE If you set the security appliance as a Cisco VPN hardware client, the VPN tunnels
established by Site-to-Site VPN or Cisco IPSec VPN Server are automatically
disconnected. The Cisco IPSec VPN Client feature allows you to create multiple
group polices to connect different servers but only one group policy can be used
to establish the IPSec tunnel with a specified server.
Benefits of the Cisco IPSec VPN Client Feature
•
Allows dynamic configuration of end-user policy, requiring less manual
configuration by end users and field technicians, thus reducing errors and
further service calls.
•
Allows the provider to change equipment and network configurations as
needed, with little or no reconfiguration of the end-user equipment.
•
Provides for centralized security policy management.
•
Enables large-scale deployments with rapid user provisioning.

Configuring the Cisco IPSec VPN Client
•
Eliminates the need for end users to purchase and configure external VPN
devices.
•
Eliminates the need for end users to install and configure Cisco VPN Client
software on their PCs.
•
Offloads the creation and maintenance of the VPN connections from the PC
to the router.
•
Reduces interoperability problems between the different PC-based
software VPN clients, external hardware-based VPN solutions, and other
VPN applications.
•
Sets up a single IPsec tunnel regardless of the number of multiple subnets
that are supported and the size of the split-include list.
Modes of Operation
The Cisco VPN hardware client supports two operation modes: Client Mode or
Network Extension Mode (NEM). The operation mode determines whether the
inside hosts relative to the Cisco VPN hardware client are accessible from the
corporate network over the tunnel. Specifying a operation mode is mandatory
before making a connection because the Cisco VPN hardware client does not
have a default mode.
All modes of operation also optionally support split tunneling, which allows secure
access to corporate resources through the VPN tunnel while also allowing Internet
access through a connection to an Internet service provider (ISP) or other
service—thereby eliminating the corporate network from the path for web access.
This section includes the following topics:
•
Client Mode, page 240
•
Network Extension Mode, page 241
Client Mode
Client mode specifies that NAT or PAT be done so that the PCs and other hosts at
the remote end of the VPN tunnel form a private network that does not use any IP
addresses in the IP address space of the desination server. In Client mode, the
outside interface of the Cisco VPN hardware client can be assigned an IP address
by the remote server.

Configuring the Cisco IPSec VPN Client
Figure 7 illustrates the client mode of operation. In this example, the security
appliance provides access to two PCs, which have IP addresses in the 10.0.0.0
private network space. These PCs connect to the Ethernet interface on the
security appliance, and the server assigns an IP address 192.168.101.2 to the
security appliance. The security appliance performs NAT or PAT translation over
the VPN tunnel so that the PCs can access the destination network. When
accessing the remote network 192.168.100.x, the hosts 10.0.0.3 and 10.0.04 will
be translated to 192.168.101.2, but hosts in the remote network 192.168.100.x can
not access the hosts 10.0.0.3 and 10.0.04.

Network Extension Mode
Network Extension Mode (NEM) specifies that the PCs and other hosts at the client
end of the VPN tunnel should be given IP addresses that are fully routable and
reachable by the destination network over the tunneled network so that they form
one logical network. PAT is not used, which allows the client PCs and hosts to have
direct access to the PCs and hosts at the destination network. In NEM mode, the
Cisco VPN hardware client obtains a private IP address from a DHCP server over
the VPN tunnel.
Figure 9 illustrates the network extension mode of operation. In this example, the
security appliance acts as a Cisco VPN hardware client, connecting to a remote
Cisco IPSec VPN Server. The hosts attached to the security appliance have IP
addresses in the 10.0.0.0 private network space. The server does not assign an IP
address to the security appliance, and the security appliance does not perform

NAT or PAT translation over the VPN tunnel. When accessing the remote network
192.168.100.x, the hosts 10.0.0.3 and 10.0.04 will not be translated, and hosts in
the remote network 192.168.100.x can access the hosts 10.0.0.3 and 10.0.04
directly.
The client hosts are given IP addresses that are fully routable by the destination
network over the tunnel. These IP addresses could be either in the same subnet
space as the destination network or in separate subnets, assuming that the
destination routers are configured to properly route those IP addresses over the
tunnel.

one site to access the hosts at the other site, Network Address Translation
(NAT) is used on the routers to change both the source and destination
addresses to different subnets.
Figure 11 Networking example that simulates two merging companies with
the same IP addressing scheme
In this example, when the host 172.16.1.2 at Site A accesses the same IPaddressed host at Site B, it connects to a 172.19.1.2 address rather than to
the actual 172.16.1.2 address. When the host at Site B to accesses Site A, it
connects to a 172.18.1.2 address. NAT on Router A translates any 172.16.x.x
address to look like the matching 172.18.x.x host entry. NAT on Router B
changes 172.16.x.x to look like 172.19.x.x.
NOTE This configuration only allows the two networks to communicate. It
does not allow for Internet connectivity. You need additional paths to
the Internet for connectivity to locations other than the two sites; in
other words, you need to add another router or firewall on each side,
with multiple routes configured on the hosts.

•
WAN Failover Enable: Click On to enable WAN Failover for the IPSec VPN
connection, or click Off to disable it. If you enable WAN Failover, the backup
WAN interface ensures that VPN traffic rolls over to the backup link
whenever the primary link fails. The security appliance will automatically
update the local WAN gateway for the VPN tunnel based on the
configurations of the backup WAN link. For this purpose, Dynamic DNS has
to be configured because the IP address will change due to failover, or let the
remote gateway use dynamic IP address.
NOTE To enable the WAN Failover for Site-to-Site VPN, make sure that the
secondary WAN interface was configured and the WAN redundancy
was set as the Failover or Load Balancing mode.
•
Redundant Gateway: Click On to enable Redundant Gateway, or click Off to
disable it. If you enable Redundant Gateway, when the connection of remote
gateway is down, the backup connection automatically becomes active. A

NOTE Ensure that the authentication algorithm is configured identically on
both sides.
•
•
•
Authentication: Specify the authentication method that the security
appliance uses to establish the identity of each IPsec peer.
PRE-SHARE: Uses a simple password based key to authenticate. The
alpha-numeric key is shared with IKE peer. Pre-shared keys do not scale
well with a growing network but are easier to set up in a small network.
RSA-SIG: Uses a digital certificate to authenticate. RSA-SIG is a digital
certificate with keys generated by the RSA signatures algorithm. In this
case, a certificate must be configured in order for the RSA-Signature to
work.
D-H Group: Choose the Diffie-Hellman group identifier, which the two IPsec
peers use to derive a shared secret without transmitting it to eachother. The
D-H Group sets the strength of the algorithm in bits. The lower the DiffieHellman group number, the less CPU time it requires to execute. The higher
the Diffie-Hellman group number, the greater the security.
Group 2 (1024-bit)
Group 5 (1536-bit)
Group 14 (2048-bit)
Lifetime: Enter the number of seconds for the IKE Security Association to
remain valid. The default is 24 hours. As a general rule, a shorter lifetime
provides more secure ISAKMP negotiations (up to a point). However, with
shorter lifetimes, the security appliance sets up future IPsec SAs more
quickly.

Configuring the User Authentication Settings
Using Local Database for Authentication
Use the local database to authenticate the users when the number of users
accessing the network is less than 100 users. When you use the local database for
authentication, the local database verifies the user name and password
information of the users who try to access the network. Only the valid local users
are allowed to access the network.
STEP 1
Click Users -> Settings.
The User Settings window opens.
STEP 2
In the User Login Settings area, choose Local Database as the authentication
method from the Authentication Method drop-down list.
STEP 3
Click Save to apply your settings.
Using RADIUS Server for Authentication
Use the RADIUS server to authenticate the users when more than 100 users need
to access the network. The security appliance uses the Framed-Filter-ID attribute
to store the user and group information in the RADIUS server, and checks a user’s
credentials by using the Password Authentication Protocol (PAP) authentication
scheme.
If you use RADIUS for user authentication, users must log into the security
appliance using HTTPS in order to encrypt the password. The security appliance
verifies the user name and password information of the users through the RADIUS
server. The RADIUS server returns the authentication result to the security
appliance. For a valid RADIUS user, the security appliance checks its user group
service policy from the local database and permits the access. For a invalid
RADIUS user, the security appliance denies the access.
NOTE The user group service policies can only be configured locally. All user groups on
an AAA server need to be duplicated locally.

the RADIUS server. If the RADIUS server does not respond within the
specified number of retries, the connection is dropped. The default value
is 3.
RADIUS Servers: Choose the RADIUS group index from the drop-down list.
The RADIUS server settings of the selected group are disaplayed. You can
edit these settings here but the settings you specify will replace the default
settings of the selected group. To maintain the RADIUS settings, go to the
Device Management -> RADIUS Settings page. See Configuring the

Using Local Database and RADIUS Server for Authentication
You can use both the local database and RADIUS server to authenticate the users
who try to access the network.
When you use both the local database and RADIUS server for authentication, the
security appliance first verifies the user name and password information of the
users through the RADIUS server. The RADIUS server returns the authentication
result to the security appliance. For a valid RADIUS user, the security appliance
checks its user group service policy from the local database and allows the user
to access the network. For an invalid RADIUS user, then the security appliance
uses the local database to verify the user. For a valid local user, the security
appliance checks its user group service policy from the local database and allows
the user to access the network. For an invalid local user, the security appliance
denies the user to access the network.

Firmware Management
After you switch to the secondary firmware, the security appliance automatically
reboots with the saved settings.
Firmware Auto Fall Back Mechanism
The security appliance includes two firmware images in the same NAND flash to
provide an Auto Fall Back mechanism so that the security appliance can
automatically switch to the secondary firmware when the primary firmware
occurs a CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) Error or cannot boot up successfully for
five times.
The Auto Fall Back mechanism operates as follows:
1. When the security appliance tries to boot up with the primary firmware, the
Bootloader checks the CRC of the primary firmware.
2. If the primary firmware occurs a CRC Error or a Boot Failure, the Bootloader will
switch to the secondary firmware and check the CRC for the secondary
firmware.
•
CRC Error: An error that the firmware cannot pass the CRC validation.
Downloading an incomplete firmware or incompletely writing the firmware
to the flash may cause the CRC error.
•
Boot Failure: A failure that the firmware cannot boot up successfully for five
times. Booting up successfully means that the system boots to the login
shell.
3. If the secondary firmware occurs a CRC Error or a Boot Failure, the Rescue
mode starts up. In the Rescue mode, the security appliance works as a TFTP
server. You can use a TFTP client to upload a firmware image to upgrade. The IP
address of the TFTP server is 192.168.1.1. For more information about the
Rescue mode, see Using the Rescue Mode to Recover the System,
page 302.

Internet Connection, page 333
•
Date and Time, page 336
•
Pinging to Test LAN Connectivity, page 337
•
Restoring Factory Default Settings, page 339
Internet Connection
Symptom:
You cannot access the Configuration Utility from a PC on your LAN.
Recommended Actions:
STEP 1 Check the Ethernet connection between the PC and the security appliance.
STEP 2 Ensure that the IP address of your PC is on the same subnet as the security
appliance. If you are using the recommended addressing scheme, your PC’s
address should be in the range 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.200.
STEP 3 Check the IP address of your PC. If the PC cannot reach a DHCP server, some
versions of Windows and MacOS generate and assign an IP address. These autogenerated addresses are in the range of 169.254.x.x. If your IP address is in this
range, check the connection from the PC to the security appliance and reboot your
PC.
STEP 4 If your IP address has changed and you don’t know what it is, reset the security
appliance to the factory default settings.

Troubleshooting
Internet Connection
If you do not want to reset to factory default settings and lose your configuration,
reboot the security appliance and use a packet sniffer (such as Ethereal™) to
capture packets sent during the reboot. Look at the ARP packets to locate the LAN
interface address.
STEP 5 Launch your web browser and ensure that Java, JavaScript, or ActiveX is enabled.
If you are using Internet Explorer, click Refresh to ensure that the Java applet is
loaded. Close the browser and launch it again.
STEP 6 Ensure that you are using the correct login information. The factory default login
name is cisco and the password is cisco. Ensure that CAPS LOCK is off when
entering this information.
Symptom:
The security appliance does not save my configuration changes.
Recommended Actions:
STEP 1 When entering configuration settings, click OK or Save before moving to another
page or tab; otherwise your changes are lost.
STEP 2 Click Refresh or Reload in the browser, which will clear a cached copy of the old
configuration.
Symptom:
The security appliance cannot access the Internet.
Possible Cause: If you use dynamic IP addresses, your security appliance is not
requesting an IP address from the ISP.
Recommended Actions:
STEP 1 Launch your browser and determine if you can connect to an external site such as
www.cisco.com.
STEP 2 Launch the Configuration Utility.
STEP 3 Click Status -> Dashboard in the left hand navigation pane.
STEP 4 In the WAN Interface area, find the WAN1 Address. If 0.0.0.0 is shown, your
security appliance has not obtained an IP address from your ISP. See the next
symptom.

Troubleshooting
Internet Connection
Symptom:
The security appliance cannot obtain an IP address from the ISP.
Recommended Actions:
STEP 1 Turn off power to the cable or DSL modem.
STEP 2 Turn off the security appliance.
STEP 3 Wait 5 minutes, and then reapply power to the cable or DSL modem.
STEP 4 When the modem LEDs indicate that it has resynchronized with the ISP, reapply
power to the security appliance. If the security appliance still cannot obtain an ISP
address, see the next symptom.
Symptom:
The security appliance still cannot obtain an IP address from the ISP.
Recommended Actions:
STEP 1 Click Networking -> WAN in the left hand navigation pane.
STEP 2 Click Edit.
The WAN - Add/Edit window opens.
STEP 3 Ask your ISP the following questions:
•
What type of network addressing mode is required for your Internet
connection? In the IPv4 tab, choose the correct ISP connection type in the
IP Address Assignment drop-down list, and then enter the account
information as specified by the ISP.
•
Is your ISP expecting you to login from a particular Ethernet MAC address?
If yes, in the IPv4 tab, choose Use the following MAC address from the
MAC Address Source drop-down list, and then enter the required MAC
address in the MAC Address field.
Symptom: The security appliance can obtain an IP address, but PC is unable to
load Internet pages.
Recommended Actions:

Date and Time
STEP 1 Ask your ISP for the addresses of its designated DNS servers. Configure your PC
to recognize those addresses. For details, see your operating system
documentation.
STEP 2 On your PC, configure the security appliance to be its TCP/IP gateway.
Date and Time
Symptom:
Date shown is January 1, 2000.
Possible Cause: The security appliance has not yet successfully reached a
network Time Server (NTS).

Troubleshooting
Pinging to Test LAN Connectivity
Pinging to Test LAN Connectivity
Most TCP/IP terminal devices and security appliances contain a ping utility that
sends an ICMP echo-request packet to the designated device. The device
responds with an echo reply. Troubleshooting a TCP/IP network is made very easy
by using the ping utility in your PC or workstation.
This section includes the following topics:
•
Testing the LAN Path from Your PC to Your Security Appliance,
page 337
•
Testing the LAN Path from Your PC to a Remote Device, page 338
Testing the LAN Path from Your PC to Your Security
Appliance
STEP 1 On your PC, click the Windows Start button, and then click Run.
STEP 2 Type ping  where  is the IP address of the security
appliance. Example: ping 192.168.1.1.
STEP 3 Click OK.
STEP 4 Observe the display:
•
If the path is working, you see this message sequence:
Pinging  with 32 bytes of data
Reply from : bytes=32 time=NN ms TTL=xxx
•
If the path is not working, you see this message sequence:
Pinging  with 32 bytes of data
Request timed out
STEP 5 If the path is not working, test the physical connections between the PC and the
security appliance:
•
If the LAN port LED is off, verify that the corresponding link LEDs are lit for
your network interface card and for any hub ports that are connected to your
workstation and security appliance.
STEP 6 If the path is still not up, test the network configuration:
Cisco ISA500 Series Integrated Security Appliance Administrator Guide

Troubleshooting
Pinging to Test LAN Connectivity
•
Verify that the Ethernet card driver software and TCP/IP software are
installed and configured on the PC.
•
Verify that the IP addresses for the security appliance and PC are correct
and on the same subnet.
Testing the LAN Path from Your PC to a Remote Device
STEP 1 On your PC, click the Windows Start button, and then click Run.
STEP 2 Type ping -n 10  where -n 10 specifies a maximum of 10 tries and
 is the IP address of a remote device such as your ISP’s DNS server.
Example: ping -n 10 10.1.1.1.
STEP 3 Click OK and then observe the display (see the previous procedure).
STEP 4 If the path is not working, do the following:
•
Check that the PC has the IP address of your security appliance is listed as
the default gateway. (If the IP configuration of your PC is assigned by DHCP,
this information is not visible in your PC’s Network Control Panel.)
•
Verify that the network (subnet) address of your PC is different from the
network address of the remote device.
•
Verify that the cable or DSL modem is connected and functioning.
•
Call your ISP and go through the questions listed in The security appliance
cannot obtain an IP address from the ISP.
•
Ask your ISP if it rejects the Ethernet MAC addresses of all but one of your
PCs. Many broadband ISPs restrict access by allowing traffic from the MAC
address of only your broadband modem. Some ISPs additionally restrict
access to the MAC address of just a single PC connected to that modem. If
this is the case, configure your security appliance to clone or spoof the MAC
address from the authorized PC. See Configuring the WAN, page 101.
