RS7 was designed to be an easy upgrade over RS6. It is important to note the underlying "intrusion detection" logic was completely redone, and is the biggest change since RealSecure 1.0. However, from the point of view of our customers, it is rarely more difficult than the simple XPU upgrades that you are already familiar with.
The biggest problem has been that some customers have relied upon some of the quirks of RealSecure 6, specifically how some signatures works. Since RS7 signatures work completely differently (protocol-analysis now instead of pattern-match), those sorts of things are broken. Likewise, some of the database schemas have changed to accomodate the new functionality. --- "Anderson, Mike" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > None I came across, it was a pretty simple upgrade for me.. > > -----Original Message----- > From: Gary Flynn [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, November 07, 2003 12:16 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [ISSForum] Anyone have advice for someone moving from ISS 6.x > to 7 > > > Any major issues I should be aware of before I take > the leap? > > Any major database schema changes? > > thanks, > > -- > Gary Flynn > Security Engineer - Technical Services > James Madison University > > > > _______________________________________________ > ISSForum mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > TO UNSUBSCRIBE OR CHANGE YOUR SUBSCRIPTION, go to > https://atla-mm1.iss.net/mailman/listinfo > ************************************************************************************************** > Note: > The information contained in this message may be privileged and confidential > and > protected from disclosure.
