Configuring Global APPID Properties
You can define additional properties that apply on a global basis to APPID processing and are not part of a specific application, group, rule, or profile definition. To configure these global APPID properties, include the following statements at the [edit services application-identification] hierarchy level:
[edit services]application-identification {application-system-cache-timeout seconds;max-checked-bytes bytes;min-checked-bytes bytes;no-application-identification;no-application-system-cache;no-clear-application-system-cache;no-protocol-method;no-signature-based;}
The global application properties have the following effect:
- application-system-cache-timeout—Lifetime for system cache entries, in seconds.
- max-checked-bytes—The maximum number of bytes to be inspected in APPID processing, in the range from 0 through 100,000 bytes.
- min-checked-bytes—The minimum number of bytes to be inspected in APPID processing, in the range from 0 through 2000 bytes.
- no-application-identification—Disable all application identification methods.
- no-application-system-cache—Disable storing application identification results in the application system cache.
- no-clear-application-system-cache—Disable clearing the application system cache.
- no-protocol-method—Disable the protocol-based application identification method, which is enabled by default.
- no-signature-based—Disable the signature-based application identification method.
