Introduction

The Cisco ASA 5500 series security appliance delivers unprecedented levels of defense against threats to the network with deeper web inspection and flow specific analysis, improved secure connectivity through end-point security posture validation and voice and video over VPN support. It also provides enhanced support for intelligent information networks through improved network integration, resiliency, and scalability. This release introduces significant enhancements to all major functional areas, including: firewalling and inspection services, VPN services, network integration, high-availability services, and management/monitoring.

For more information on all the new features, see New Features.

Additionally, the Cisco ASA 5500 series security appliance software supports Adaptive Security Device Manager. ASDM is a browser-based, Java applet used to configure and monitor the software on the security appliances. ASDM is loaded from the security appliance, then used to configure, monitor, and manage the device.

New Features

This section describes the new features in this release. This section includes the following topics:

4GE SSM

WebVPN Capture Feature

Auto Update Over a VPN Tunnel

Crashinfo Enhancement

Modular Policy Framework Enhancement

Support GTP Load Balancing Across GSNs

Downloadable ACL Enhancements

Converting Wildcards to Network Mask in Downloadable ACL

HTTP proxy applet

IPSec VPN: Add support for cascading ACLs

Rate limiting of Syslog messages

4GE SSM

The 4GE Security Services Module (SSM) is an optional I/O card for the adaptive security appliance. The 4GE SSM expands the total number of ports available on the security appliance, providing four additional ports with Ethernet (RJ-45) or SFP (fiber optic) connections.

WebVPN Capture Feature

The WebVPN capture feature lets you log information about websites that do not display properly over a WebVPN connection. You can enable the WebVPN capture feature with the capture command, but note that it has an adverse affect on the performance of the security appliance. So, be sure to disable this feature after you have captured the information that you need for troubleshooting.

For more information, see the "Capturing WebVPN Data" section in the Cisco Security Appliance Command Line Configuration Guide. For a complete description of the command syntax, see the Cisco Security Appliance Command Reference.

Auto Update Over a VPN Tunnel

With this release, the auto-update server command has a new source interface argument that lets you specify an interface, such as a VPN tunnel used for management access and specified by the management-access command:

auto-update server url [source interface] [verify-certificate]

no auto-update server url [source interface] [verify-certificate]

For a complete description of the command syntax, see the Cisco Security Appliance Command Reference.

Crashinfo Enhancement

Output from the crashinfo command might contain sensitive information that is inppropriate for viewing by all users connected to the security appliance. The new crashinfo console disable command lets you suppress the output from displaying on the console.

For a complete description of the command syntax, see the Cisco Security Appliance Command Reference.

Modular Policy Framework Enhancement

The new set connection timeout command lets you configure the timeout period, after which an idle TCP connection is disconnected.

For more information, see the "Using Modular Policy Framework" section in the Cisco Security Appliance Command Line Configuration Guide. For a complete description of the command syntax, see the Cisco Security Appliance Command Reference.

Support GTP Load Balancing Across GSNs

If the security appliance performs GTP inspection, by default the security appliance drops GTP responses from GSNs that were not specified in the GTP request. This situation occurs when you use load-balancing among a pool of GSNs to provide efficiency and scalability of GPRS. You can enable support for GSN pooling by using the permit response command. This command configures the security appliance to allow responses from any of a designated set of GSNs, regardless of the GSN to which a GTP request was sent.

For more information, see the "Enabling and Configuring GTP Inspection" section in the Cisco Security Appliance Command Line Configuration Guide. For a complete description of the command syntax, see the Cisco Security Appliance Command Reference.

Downloadable ACL Enhancements

A new feature has been added to ensure that downloadable ACL requests sent to a RADIUS server come from a valid source through the Message-Authenticator attribute.

Upon receipt of a RADIUS authentication request that has a username attribute containing the name of a downloadable ACL, Cisco Secure ACS authenticates the request by checking the Message-Authenticator attribute. The presence of the Message-Authenticator attribute prevents malicious use of a downloadable ACL name to gain unauthorized network access. The Message-Authenticator attribute and its use are defined in RFC 2869, RADIUS Extensions, available at http://www.ietf.org.

For more information, see the "Configuring Any RADIUS Server for Downloadable ACLs" section in the Cisco Security Appliance Command Line Configuration Guide. For a complete description of the command syntax, see the Cisco Security Appliance Command Reference.

Converting Wildcards to Network Mask in Downloadable ACL

Some Cisco products, such as the VPN 3000 concentrator and Cisco IOS routers, require you to configure dowloadable ACLs with wildcards instead of network masks. The Cisco ASA 5500 adaptive security appliance, on the other hand, requires you to configure downloadable ACLs with network masks. This new feature allows the security appliance to convert a wildcard to a netmask internally. Translation of wildcard netmask expressions means that downloadable ACLs written for Cisco VPN 3000 series concentrators can be used by the security appliance without altering the configuration of the downloadable ACLs on the RADIUS server.

You can configure ACL netmask conversion on a per-server basis, using the acl-netmask-convert command, available in the AAA-server configuration mode. For more information about configuring a RADIUS server, see the"Identifying AAA Server Groups and Servers" section in the Cisco Security Appliance Command Line Configuration Guide. For a complete description of the command syntax, see the Cisco Security Appliance Command Reference.

HTTP proxy applet

The HTTP proxy is an Internet Proxy, that supports both HTTP and HTTPS connections. The HTTP proxy code modifies the browser proxy configuration dynamically to redirect all browser HTTP/S requests to the new proxy configuration. This allows the Java Applet to take over as the proxy for the browser.

HTTP Proxy can be used in conjunction with the Port Forwarding (Application Access) feature or by itself.


Note The HTTP proxy feature only works when using Internet Explorer.


On some of the older computers, running Windows XP, the RunOnce Reg-Key is not available, causing the Port Forwarding HTTP-Proxy feature to fail when attempting to modify Proxy settings on Internet Explorer.

You can mannually change the registry. Complete the following steps to change the registry manually:

a. Click Start | Run.

b. Type regedit in the open text box, and click OK.

c. Open this folder: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\

d. Right click inside the CurrentVersion and select New | Key.

e. Name the new key RunOnce.

f. Click OK.

To configure file access and file browsing, MAPI Proxy, HTTP Proxy, and URL entry over WebVPN for this user or group policy, use the functions command in WebVPN mode.

For a complete description of the command syntax, see the Cisco Security Appliance Command Reference.

IPSec VPN: Add support for cascading ACLs

Cascading ACLs involves the insertion of deny ACEs to bypass evaluation against an ACL and resume evaluation against a subsequent ACL in the crypto map set. Because you can associate each crypto map with different IPSec settings, you can use deny ACEs to exclude special traffic from further evaluation in the corresponding crypto map, and match the special traffic to permit statements in another crypto map to provide or require different security. The sequence number assigned to the crypto ACL determines its position in the evaluation sequence within the crypto map set.

For more information, see the "Defining Crypto Maps" section in the Cisco Security Appliance Command Line Configuration Guide. For a complete description of the command syntax, see the Cisco Security Appliance Command Reference.

Rate limiting of Syslog messages

The logging rate limit enables you to limit the rate at which system log messages are generated. You can limit the number of system messages that are generated during a specified time interval.

You can limit the message generation rate for all messages, a single message ID, a range of message IDs, or all messages with a particular severity level. To limit the rate at which system log messages are generated, use the logging rate-limit command.

For a complete description of the command syntax, see the Cisco Security Appliance Command Reference.

Important Notes

Important Notes in Release 7.0

This section lists important notes related to release 7.0(4).

Common Criteria EAL4+

For information on common criteria EAL4+, see the Installation and Configuration for Common Criteria EAL4+ Evaluated Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance, Version 7.0(4) document.

FIPS 140-2

The Cisco ASA 5500 series security appliance is on the FIPS 140-2 Pre-Validation List.

Hostname and Domain Name Limitation

When using ASDM, the hostname and domain names combined should not be more than 63 characters long. If the hostname and domain names combined is more than 63 characters, you will get an error message.

WebVPN ACLS and DNS Hostname

When a deny webtype URL ACL (DNS-based) is defined, but the DNS-based URL is not reachable, a "DNS Error" popup is displayed on the browser. The ACL hitcounter is also not incremented.

If the URL ACL is defined by an IP instead of DNS name, then the traffic flow hitting the ACL will be recorded in the hitcounter and a "Connection Error" is displayed on the browser.

Proxy Server and ASA

If WebVPN is configured to use an HTTP(S)-proxy server to service all requests for browsing HTTP and/or HTTPS sites, the client/browser may expect the following behavior:

1. If the ASA cannot communicate with the HTTPS or HTTPS proxy server, a "connection error" is displayed on the client browser.

2. If the HTTP(S) proxy cannot resolve or reach the requested URL, it should send an appropriate error to the ASA, which in turn will display it to the client browser.

Only when the HTTP(S) proxy server notifies the ASA of the inaccessible URL, can the ASA notify the error to the client browser.

Mismatch PFS

The PFS setting on the VPN client and the security appliance must match.

ACS Radius Authorization Server

When certificate authentication is used in conjuction with Radius authorization, the ACS server sends a bogus Group=CISCOACS:0003b9c6/5a940131/username and is displayed in the vpn-session database.

Readme Document for the Conduits and Outbound List Conversion Tool 1.2

The Cisco ASA 5500 series security appliance Outbound/Conduit Conversion tool assists in converting configurations with outbound or conduit commands to similar configurations using ACLs. ACL-based configurations provide uniformity and leverage the powerful ACL feature set. ACL based configurations provide the following benefit:

ACE Insertion capability - System configuration and management is greatly simplified by the ACE insertion capability that allows users to add, delete or modify individual ACEs.

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/products_psirt_rss_feed.html

Reporting Security Problems in Cisco Products

Cisco is committed to delivering secure products. We test our products internally before we release them, and we strive to correct all vulnerabilities quickly. If you think that you might have identified a vulnerability in a Cisco product, contact PSIRT:

Emergencies — security-alert@cisco.com

Nonemergencies — psirt@cisco.com


Tip We encourage you to use Pretty Good Privacy (PGP) or a compatible product to encrypt any sensitive information that you send to Cisco. PSIRT can work from encrypted information that is compatible with PGP versions 2.x through 8.x.

Never use a revoked or an expired encryption key. The correct public key to use in your correspondence with PSIRT is the one that has the most recent creation date in this public key server list:

Obtaining Technical Assistance

For all customers, partners, resellers, and distributors who hold valid Cisco service contracts, Cisco Technical Support provides 24-hour-a-day, award-winning technical assistance. The Cisco Technical Support Website on Cisco.com features extensive online support resources. In addition, Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) engineers provide telephone support. If you do not hold a valid Cisco service contract, contact your reseller.

Cisco Technical Support Website

The Cisco Technical Support Website provides online documents and tools for troubleshooting and resolving technical issues with Cisco products and technologies. The website is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, at this URL:

http://www.cisco.com/techsupport

Access to all tools on the Cisco Technical Support Website requires a Cisco.com user ID and password. If you have a valid service contract but do not have a user ID or password, you can register at this URL:

http://tools.cisco.com/RPF/register/register.do


Note Use the Cisco Product Identification (CPI) tool to locate your product serial number before submitting a web or phone request for service. You can access the CPI tool from the Cisco Technical Support Website by clicking the Tools & Resources link under Documentation & Tools. Choose Cisco Product Identification Tool from the Alphabetical Index drop-down list, or click the Cisco Product Identification Tool link under Alerts & RMAs. The CPI tool offers three search options: by product ID or model name; by tree view; or for certain products, by copying and pasting show command output. Search results show an illustration of your product with the serial number label location highlighted. Locate the serial number label on your product and record the information before placing a service call.


Submitting a Service Request

Using the online TAC Service Request Tool is the fastest way to open S3 and S4 service requests. (S3 and S4 service requests are those in which your network is minimally impaired or for which you require product information.) After you describe your situation, the TAC Service Request Tool provides recommended solutions. If your issue is not resolved using the recommended resources, your service request is assigned to a Cisco TAC engineer. The TAC Service Request Tool is located at this URL:

http://www.cisco.com/techsupport/servicerequest

For S1 or S2 service requests or if you do not have Internet access, contact the Cisco TAC by telephone. (S1 or S2 service requests are those in which your production network is down or severely degraded.) Cisco TAC engineers are assigned immediately to S1 and S2 service requests to help keep your business operations running smoothly.

To open a service request by telephone, use one of the following numbers:

Asia-Pacific: +61 2 8446 7411 (Australia: 1 800 805 227)
EMEA: +32 2 704 55 55
