Newbie question: autoblocking with IDS/IPS

Subject: Newbie question: autoblocking with IDS/IPS
Date: 10 Dec 2004 15:47:36 -0000


Hi,

I'm thinking of buying one of that new CISCO IDS boxes which can be placed 
inline in the future.

Is anybody of you using the automatic shunning (I guess it's called so) feature 
of the CISCO IDS? 
Does this make sense? (Which signatures should be autoblocked?)

Or are you just monitoring and then blocking manually?

Any hint would be greatly appreciated!
