2.5. Create a new Cisco Firepower Threat Defense TAP serviceΒΆ

  • Select SSL Orchestrator from the left-hand menu and then click on Configuration
  • Select the Services tab in the middle of the main display area. Notice that the already configured HTTP Service, ssloS_Squid_Proxy, is already present.
  • Click the Add button above the list of services
  • Type firepower in the Search box
  • Select Cisco Firepower Threat Defense TAP and click the Add button
  • On the Service Properties screen enter the following values:
    • Name - provide a unique name to this service (ex. CiscoFP).
    • Description - provide a description as needed (ex. Cisco Firepower TAP).
    • MAC Address - for a TAP service that is not directly connected to F5 SSLO, enter the device's actual MAC address. For a TAP service that is directly connected to F5 SSLO, the MAC address does not matter and can be arbitrarily defined. For this lab, enter 12:12:12:12:12:12
    • VLAN - this defines the interface connecting F5 SSLO to the TAP service. Select Create New and provide a unique name (ex. TAP_in).
    • Interface - select the 1.7 interface.
    • Tag - this is the 802.1q VLAN tag for service. Leave it empty since this service is connected to an untagged interface.
    • Enable Port Remap - this setting allows SSLO to remap the port of HTTPS traffic flowing to this service. For this lab, leave the option disabled (unchecked).
  • Click the Save & Next button.
