Hey there LookingPoint faithful’s! I hope you are all doing well and continuing to stay safe. Today I wanted to drop a quick how to on how to Whitelist IP addresses in Cisco’s FMC. So, without further of do, lets get to work!
1. Log in to FMC and navigate to the “Analysis” tab Connections/Events.
2. Next, right click on any IP address you want to either Whitelist or Blacklist. This will bring up a dropdown menu that should show you an option to Whitelist or Blacklist the IP. It will then ask you to confirm.
3. You can verify the added Whitelist IP by going to the Objects tab > Object Management > Security Intelligence (On left side pane) > Network Lists and Feed > Global-Whitelist > edit (pencil icon).
(Please see screenshot below)
A second way to do this is the following:
1. Create a Text file listing all the IP addresses you would like to White/Blacklist and Save locally to your PC.2. Log into FMC and go to Objects > Object Management > Security Intelligence > Network Lists and Feed > click Add Network Lists and Feeds on the top right of the screen.
3. Now, go to the Policies tab on top of the page> Access Control > Click on your Access Control Policy.
Not too bad right? Like I said, short and simple. If you have any further questions, please feel free to reach out to us at sales@lookingpoint.com, we would be more than happy to assist you.
Thank you!
