Cisco AMP Threat Grid Appliance Setup and Configuration Guide
PLANNING
7
By default, DNS uses the Dirty interface. The Clean interface is used for FireAMP Private Cloud
integrations. If the FireAMP Private Cloud hostname cannot be resolved over the Dirty interface, then a
separate DNS server that uses the Clean interface can be configured in the OpAdmin interface.
See the
Threat Grid Appliance Administrator’s Guide
for additional information.
NTP Server Access
The NTP server needs to be accessible via the Dirty network.
Integrations – ESA/WSA/FireAMP etc.
Additional planning may be required if the Threat Grid Appliance is going to be used with other Cisco
products, such as ESA/WSA appliances, FireAMP Private Cloud, etc.
DHCP
If you are connected to a network configured to use DHCP, then follow the instructions provided in the
Using DHCP
section of the
Threat Grid Appliance Administrator's Guide
.
License
You will receive a license and password from Cisco AMP Threat Grid.
For questions about licenses, please contact [email protected].
Organization and Users
Once you have completed the appliance setup and network configuration, you will need to create the initial
Threat Grid Organizations and user account(s), so people can login and begin submitting malware samples
for analysis. This task may require planning and coordination among multiple organizations and users,
depending on your requirements.
Managing Threat Grid Organizations and users is documented in the
Threat Grid Appliance Administrator’s
Guide
.
Updates
The initial appliance setup and configuration steps
must be completed
before installing any Threat Grid
appliance updates.
We recommend that you check for updates immediately after completing the initial configuration described
in this guide.
Updates must be done in sequence. Threat Grid Appliance updates cannot be downloaded until the license
is installed, and the update process requires the initial appliance configuration to be completed.
Instructions for updating the appliance are located in the
Threat Grid Appliance Administrator's Guide
.
Note:
Verify that SSH is specified for updates.
