The CLI configuration manager allows you to control hardware and SSL portions of the appliance through a discreet mode and submode system. The commands for the Secure Content Accelerator device fit into the logical hierarchy show in Figure C-1.
To configure items in a submode, activate the submode by entering a command in the mode above it. For example, to set the network interface speed or duplex you must first enter enable, configure, then interface network. To return to the higher Configuration mode, simply enter end or exit or press CTRL+D. The finished command returns to the Top Level from any mode. Appendix C lists all commands for SSL devices.
Cisco Secure Content Accelerator devices allow easy, flexible configuration without compromising the security of your network or their own configuration.
SSL devices are shipped without passwords. Setting passwords is important because the device can be administered over a network. For more information about passwords, see the commands password access and password enable in Appendix C.
Access lists control which computers can attach to a specific device. No access lists exist when you first install the Secure Content Accelerator. You can restrict the computers allowed to manage the appliance by adding their IP addresses to one or more access lists for each device. For more information about configuring access lists, see the commands show access-list, access-list, snmp access-list, remote-management access-list, telnet access-list, and web-mgmt access-list in Appendix C.
To further protect the configuration security, you can specify that remote (non-serial and non-telnet) configuration sessions be encrypted using AES, DES, or ARC4. See remote-management encryption in Appendix C.

Caution All configuration is lost when using the factory default reset password. |
You can configure the Cisco Secure Content Accelerator using one of four methods, three of which use the CLI configuration manager.
Additionally, the behaviors of some commands vary depending upon the management method. The configuration information for the commands ip name-server, rdate-server, and ip domain-name can be set remotely, but the configuration information is used only through a serial or telnet connection. The results of the ping and traceroute commands also are dependent upon the management method. When used with the remote management application, these commands are executed and results returned based upon the configuring computer's hardware information. When used with serial or telnet management, the results are based upon the SSL appliance's hardware information.
File name formats differ depending on the management method. When using remote management, you can specify the file name as it appears in the configuring computer's file system. A path must be included, if necessary. When using serial or telnet management, the file name must be entered in any of the following formats:
[<http:// | ftp:// | https:// | tftp:// >] URL
In situations where a file is written, anonymous write access must be configured on the system with these caveats:
Additionally, we provide a guided QuickStart wizard configuration method, available from both the configuration manager and GUI. To use this method for configuration, see Chapter 4. Brief instructions are also included for initiating a management session using the configuration manager.
For instructions on using any of the CLI configuration managers, see Chapter 5 for instructions on using the GUI, see Chapter 6.
1. Attach the included null modem cable to the appliance port marked "CONSOLE". Attach the other end of the null modem cable to a serial port on the configuring computer.
2. Launch any terminal emulation application that communicates with the serial port connected to the appliance. Use these settings: 9,600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, no flow control.
3. Press Return. Initial information is displayed followed by an SCA>
prompt.
4. Enter Privileged and Configuration modes and set the IP address using the following commands. Replace the IP address in the example with the appropriate one.
SCA> enable
SCA# configure
(config[SCA])# ip address 10.1.2.5
(config[SCA])#
![]() |
Note When prompted to supply a file name during serial management, you must supply it as a URL in the form of HOST/PATH/FILENAME using the http://, https://, ftp://, or tftp:// prefix. |
1. Initiate a telnet session with the IP address previously assigned to the appliance.
2. An SCA> prompt is displayed.
![]() |
Note When prompted to supply a file name during a telnet management session, you must supply it as a URL in the form of HOST/PATH/FILENAME using the http://, https://, ftp://, or tftp:// prefix. |
Use the appropriate instructions below to run the CLI configuration manager.
Enter csacfg at a Linux shell prompt.
Enter csacfg at a Unix shell prompt.
To start the configuration manager, use the Start menu and point to Programs>Cisco Systems and click Cisco Secure Content Acc. Manager, or double-click the shortcut on the desktop.
Type Key Name Version MacAddr IPaddr
Cisco Secure Content Accelerator devices are listed with the "CSS-SCA" device type. Note the MAC address of the device you wish to configure. It is used with the "CS-" prefix to identify a specific device when giving commands in the format CS-macaddress, where macaddress is the MAC address of the device.
![]() |
Note Identify an unnamed device as a specific appliance, match the last six digits of the serial number with the MAC address shown. |
For example, entering show device list returns the following list of unattached devices:
CSS-SCA Ru sslDev1 ...
CSS-SCA Ru sslDev2 ...
CSS-SCA Ru sslDev3 ...
CSS-SCA Ru sslDev4 ...
To attach the configuration manager to the device sslDev3, enter this command:
on sslDev3 attach
The auto completer function can assist data entry. See "Editing and Completion Features" in Appendix C for details for using editing and auto completer features.
csacfg> group myGroup create
(group[myGroup])> device sslDev1
(group[myGroup])> device sslDev2
(group[myGroup])> device sslDev4
(group[myGroup])> info
group name: myGroup
number of devices: 3
device: sslDev1
device: sslDev2
device: sslDev4
(group[myGroup])>
To remove a device from the group, use the no form of the command:
(group[myGroup])> no device sslDev2
Enter end to leave Group configuration mode. To send commands to every device in the group, use the on prefix.
on myGroup attach
set on-prefix myGroup
After entering this command, you do not need to use the on prefix when addressing the default target. For example, the on myGroup attach command becomes attach. You can still address another group instead of the default; simply specify its name following the on prefix. Change the on prefix target by re-entering the command, identifying the new group. View the on prefix target by entering show profile.
![]() |
Note Individual devices can also be set as the on prefix default target. Any command without the on prefix defaults to the group or device specified by the set on-prefix command. |
