Blocking IM on a Cisco ASA 5200

Asked by spokoo in Cisco PIX Firewall, Networking Hardware Firewalls, Network Operations

Tags: , ,

Dear all,

I'm trying to block the IM (MSN) traffic on my Cisco ASA device 5220 (os 7.2(3))

I've use th following configuration but i'm still able to connect to the MSN:


access-list 101 extended permit ip any any

class-map type inspect im match-all im-traffic
 match protocol msn-im yahoo-im

class-map im_inspection
 match access-list 101

policy-map type inspect im im-policy
 parameters
  class im-traffic
   drop-connection log

policy-map private-policy
class im_inspection
 inspect im im-policy

service-policy private-policy interface private

----

Since my private interface (the one on which i want to block) already have a policy-map applied to it with the name of "private-policy":

"service-policy private-policy interface private"

And the  is this policy-map has the following configuration:

"policy-map private-policy
 class private-class
  inspect http
  csc fail-open"


I just add a new class to this policy-map and i get the result:

"policy-map private-policy
  class private-class
   inspect http
   csc fail-open"
  class im_inspection
   inspect im im-policy"


and therefore is automaticly matched to the private interface.

----------------

I also have a policy-map with name of "global-policy" witht the following configuration:

policy-map global-policy
 class global-class
  inspect dns
  inspect ftp
  inspect http
  inspect icmp
  inspect icmp error
  inspect im block-im-nonchat
  inspect pptp
  inspect sip


-----------------------

I didnt change nothing on this policy-map and i don't know for what's for.

At this moment my IM traffic is still not blocked.
Can anybody please help me?
