Cannot open IPS via IDM

Issue with IDM access to IPS module

To anyone that can assist!

I have a situation where I can only connect to via IPS module using the ASA console and opening a session to the module itself. I cannot open an IDM session at all.

This device is acting as a secondary device and the primary is functioning correctly.

The problem has occurred after inputting the following configuration in via a sevice account to disable weak ciphers.

su -
cd /usr/cids/idsRoot/etc
cp tls.conf tls.conf.orig
sed '/TLS_RSA_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA/d' tls.conf.orig > tls.conf
/etc/init.d/cids reboot

The IPS was stuck in INIT for two hours and caused the ASA isssues with failover so the device was phycially powered off. After being restored, I can log in via the console, but cannot browse to it or monitor the module via IME.

Does anyone have an idea on how to resolve this issue?

Many thanks

James Cotterill

Hi James,

Try logging to IPS via CLI and regenerate the certificate with:

>tls generate-key

Remove and re-add IPS on IDM

Hi CSCO12625692,

Thanks for replying, unfortunately that did not resolve anything.

I cannot browse to the page either. It is almost as if the web service has now stopped completely.

Any ideas?

thanks

James
