Problem Description

Protocol Pack installation on top of SCA-BB 3.1.5 version:

CSCsm06607 - SCA-BB framework does not support full Protocol Pack installation.

After installing Protocol Pack 12, the symptoms of the CSCsl78566 defect - Legitimate HTTP misclassifies as Behavioral-P2P in certain circumstances - may persist.

Background

During the development of SCA-BB 3.1.5, a change was made in the Protocol Pack installation routine framework. This change indirectly prevents the Protocol Pack configuration script to be executed post installation.

Problem Symptoms

After installing Protocol Pack on top of 3.1.5, not all Protocol Pack features will be available, particularly in Protocol Pack 12 on top of 3.1.5.

The following defects:

CSCsl84983 - Potential data access in YMSG signature http based

and

CSCsl78566 - Legitimate HTTP misclassifies as Behavioral-P2P on certain circumstances

will remain unresolved.

Open a CLI session in the SCE, verify that you logged in with privilege mode 15, navigate to the directory where the uploaded script.txt resides and execute the following CLI command:

script run script.txt .
Execute the following CLI to preserve changes:

copy running-config-application startup-config-application
