The CSC SSM handles SMTP traffic somewhat differently than other content
types. After the CSC SSM receives SMTP traffic and scans it, it does not forward
the traffic back to the adaptive security appliance for routing. Rather, the CSC
SSM forwards the SMTP traffic directly to the SMTP servers protected by the
adaptive security appliance.
Figure 14-2
is an illustration of a typical deployment of the adaptive security
appliance with CSC SSM.
