I've recently turned on Global Correlation but we've failed to update every 5 minutes.

PL-ASA-IPS# show stat global

Warnings:

I have a static NAT translation for the IPS, there are no proxy servers in our enviorment and it can ping outside as well as update-manifests.ironport.com (204.15.82.17). DNS is setup as well.

In the logs I see this entry:

16Feb2010 14:13:15.679 265.199 collaborationApp[491] rep/E A global correlation update failed: Failed download of ibrs/1.1/config/default/1236210407 : HTTP connection failed

I guess I'm at a loss for what else I can check. We have no problems sending the Network Participation data but we can't get any data. Any suggestions?

A few hours of searching led me to find out that the problem was being caused by an ASA/Websense combo. I has to tell the ASA to not apply filtering rules (HTTP and HTTPS) to the IPS' IP address.

Within minutes this fixed the issue.

Thanks Robert.  I had a similar configuration (ASA/Websense) and was getting the same errors.  The filter url except command fixed it in less than a minute.

I received "A global correlation update failed : Failed download of ibrs/1.1/drop/default/1267213766 : URI does not contain a valid IP address messages, like this one, in the category Reputation update failure

any ideas?

It has the default IP : 204.15.82.17

I have the same issue, i have no ASA or websense product between this device and the iNet.

Does anyone have a fix or workaround?

I have an AIM-IPS running 7.0(6)E4 with Signature versuon S599.0. All updates to date have been manualy d/l to a local ftp server

the auto update "seems" to run but never gets any updates

This is what i see

as seen above there is no ip address listed for "update-manifests.ironport.com"

NS lookup is able to resolve,

why can't the IPS?

I can i hard code the ip address?
