Chapter 60 Configuring the ASA CSC Module
Licensing Requirements for the CSC SSM
In the outside-policy, outside-class matches SMTP traffic from any outside source to the DMZ network.
This setting protects the SMTP server and inside users who download e-mail from the SMTP server on
the DMZ network, without having to scan connections from SMTP clients to the server.
If the web server on the DMZ network receives files uploaded by HTTP from external hosts, you can add
a rule to the outside policy that matches HTTP traffic from any source to the DMZ network. Because the
policy is applied to the outside interface, the rule would only match connections from HTTP clients
outside the ASA.
Licensing Requirements for the CSC SSM
Prerequisites for the CSC SSM
The CSC SSM has the following prerequisites:
• A CSC SSM card must be installed in the ASA.
• A Product Authorization Key (PAK) for use in registering the CSC SSM.
• Activation keys that you receive by e-mail after you register the CSC SSM.
• The management port of the CSC SSM must be connected to your network to allow management
and automatic updates of the CSC SSM software.
• The CSC SSM management port IP address must be accessible by the hosts used to run ASDM.
• You must obtain the following information to use in configuring the CSC SSM:
– The CSC SSM management port IP address, netmask, and gateway IP address.
– DNS server IP address.
– HTTP proxy server IP address (needed only if your security policies require the use of a proxy
server for HTTP access to the Internet).
