Implementing Cisco Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) v5.0 is a 5 day instructor-led training. The learner will get to know how Cisco IPS protects network devices from attacks. They will install the IPS sensor appliance in the network and initialize it. Use IDM to configure basic sensor settings. They will use IDM to configure built-in signatures to meet the requirements of a given security policy. They will use IDM to tune and create signatures to meet the requirements of a given security policy. 

The learner will use IDM to tune a sensor to work optimally in the network. They will use the Monitoring Center for Security and Cisco Threat Response to maximize alarm management efficiency. They will explain blocking concepts and use IDM to configure blocking.  They will install the NM-CIDS in a router and initialize it. They will install the module in a Cisco Catalyst 6500 Switch and initialize it. They will use a Cisco Catalyst 6500 Switch to capture network traffic for intrusion prevention analysis. They will use the CLI and IDM to verify system configuration.
