Update the Sensor Software
Before you start modifying the sensor configuration and applying policies to the sensor,
you should check for software updates and update the software if necessary. Sourcefire
releases patches to the sensor software, vulnerability database updates (VDBs) for
sensors running RNA, and security enhancement updates (SEUs) for IPS policies.
If your Defense Center has an internet connection, you can download and install updates
from the Defense Center. For downloading and installing sensor software patches and
VDBs, go to Operations > Update. For SEU updates, go to Policy & Response > IPS >
SEU.
Sensor software updates, SEUs, and VDBs are also available for download at the Nokia
Support Web site. You can then use the Defense Center to upload them and install them.
For more information, see the Sourcefire 3D System for Nokia User Guide.
