If you require multiple subnets to be monitored, I do not think this is the best option for you. Basically, you only have to monitorin interfaces, so you cannot do any promiscuous monitoring if you have one inline pair. I am not sure, but you might be able to add a 4FE card if you require IDS mode on other subnets.</P></BODY></HTML> Tue, 09 Jan 2007 16:41:08 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/ugrading-ids-to-ips/m-p/693554#M87862 jwalker 2007-01-09T16:41:08Z Re: Ugrading IDS to IPS https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/ugrading-ids-to-ips/m-p/693555#M87863 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>To which version am i going to upgrade to make it IPS capable?</P></BODY></HTML> Tue, 09 Jan 2007 17:21:52 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/ugrading-ids-to-ips/m-p/693555#M87863 r_berana 2007-01-09T17:21:52Z Re: Ugrading IDS to IPS https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/ugrading-ids-to-ips/m-p/693556#M87865 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>IPS-4220-K9-sys-1.1-a-6.0-1-E1.img</P></BODY></HTML> Tue, 09 Jan 2007 20:11:00 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/ugrading-ids-to-ips/m-p/693556#M87865 jim 2007-01-09T20:11:00Z
