Enabling or disabling third-Party IOC feeds on a specific appliance using the CLI

Prev Next

These procedures describe how to enable or disable a Central Management System appliance to receive indicators (IOC) from a third-party feed and distribute them to a specific managed Network Security appliance.

Note

A Central Management System appliance cannot distribute indicators of compromise (IOCs) to managed SmartVision Edition sensors.

You can verify that this feature is disabled when you log in to the managed Network Security appliance.

To enable a third-party feed for a specific managed Network Security appliance:
  1. Log in to the Central Management System CLI.

  2. Enable CLI configuration mode.

    cm-hostname > enable
    cm-hostname # configure terminal
  3. Enable IOCs from a third-party feed for a managed Network Security appliance.

    cm-hostname (config) # custom content enable on lms <applianceID>

    where applianceID is the Network Security appliance record name.

  4. Verify the status of IOC customizations.

    cm-hostname (config) # show custom content enable status
    
    CMS status
            CM-1 : enabled
    
    LMS status
            B9-vNX2500-1 : enabled 
  5. Save your changes.
