IOS IPS Signature Issue

[warnetrules]

I am having problems with uploading the signatures for IOS IPS.  I am following the write-up provided at the following link.

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/security/ios-intrusion-prevention-system-ips/prod_white_paper0900aecd805c4ea8.html

Once I have uploaded the signatures, per the write-up, they should automatically start compiling however that never happens.  Also, the write-up states that the package should contain 6 files in xml format however, the files in this package are in xmz format.  I have tried this setup on 2 separate router models, 2901 and 5915, however they signatures never compile.  This is the latest package list on the Cisco download site, IOS-S914-CLI.pkg.

Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas on how to activate the signatures?  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Perhaps you have failed some other dependency.  What version of software are you using on your 2901?

I assume the 2901 has an active current IPS licence?

I was able to figure it out.  It was really simple I feel pretty dumb.  I was importing the signatures directly into the directory I created using the command copy tftp ips.  I changed the command to copy tftp://192.168.1.2/IOS.S914.CLI.pkg idconf.  Once I was able to add the "idconf" option at the end of the command, the signatures were compiled successfully and imported into the ips directory.
