Product Description:
Cisco 2600, 2600XM, 2691, 2800, 3600, 3700, 3800 Series - Co-Processor/Advanced
Integration Module - Intrusion Detection System Network Module.
The Cisco IDS Network Module for the Cisco 2600, 3600, and
3700 series routers is part of the Cisco IDS Family sensor
portfolio and the Cisco Intrusion Protection System. These IDS
sensors work in concert with the other IDS components, including
Cisco IDS Management Console, CiscoWorks VPN/Security Management
Solution, and Cisco IDS Device Manager, to efficiently protect
your data and information infrastructure. With the increased
complexity of security threats, achieving efficient network
intrusion security solutions is critical to maintaining a high
level of protection. Vigilant protection helps ensure business
continuity and minimizes the effect of costly intrusions.
The Cisco NM-CIDS does not support bridged interfaces.
Although Cisco IOS allows you to configure IDS using NM-CIDS on
a bridged interface, NM-CIDS is not designed to inspect traffic
on bridged interfaces, and the configuration does not work.
*Supported by 3660 only
