IDSM-2 setup and configuration

[ersofgeorgia]

I need some guidance to find a good book or material to use in setting up a new IDSM-2. Would prefer it to be fairly easy to understand to a new user setting it up. I could open a TAC case because I do have Smartnet but I would rather try and learn it myself before I go that route. Any suggestions?

Hi

There is a link on the cisco site which enlists step by step approach for setting up IDSM2 on switch running native os or cisco ios

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/ips/6.0/configuration/guide/cli/cliIDSM2.html#wp1028144

Hope you find it useful.
