You need to set up the network device in the IDS configuration with login
credentials. That's how the changes take place.

Under Configuration - Blocking - Logical Devices -- You need to set up how
it'll log in to make these changes to which device. Under the Blocking
Devices -- You need to choose the protocol used to login.

If it's a router, you may also need to set up the Router Blocking Device
Interfaces portion (which will use those two pre-defined ACL numbers).

The device (router, pix, etc.) needs to be reachable from the C&C interface
of the IDS. You need to make sure that any login controls (ACLs, etc) on
your router/pix allow for telnet, ssh or whatever coming from the IP of the
IDS in order to make changes.

1. Yes I see that the event in the IEV.
2. No I do not see any changed ACL on the router.
3. What do you mean under IDS connect to the router after configured this as
blocking device?? They are pingable and in the same vlan.

4. I configured the ACL of permit ip host IDS_ipaddress any on the inside
interface of the router. AFter I fired the alarm. I did show acl and now
packets in it. So it seems to me that nothing was sent from the ids.

Thanks for your help.
