IOS IPS

In order to setup IPS on IOS follow instructions here. My tftp server is at the address 192.10.1.200 and dynamips router has interface 192.10.1.6. The first step is to transfer signature files from tftp server to router.





The signature files are stored in the router flash.

Now setp public key and load signatures .
