Filtering ActiveX Objects cisco

Filtering ActiveX Objects

Java has a added or beneath able-bodied aegis archetypal for its alive cipher (there has been

only one big aegis affair with it, and that was due to the poor implementation

of this archetypal in some versions of Netscape), but ActiveX altar accept almost

unrestricted admission to the client’s machine.

Advanced PIX Configurations • Chapter 4 175

The command to configure clarification of ActiveX cipher (and all alive content

that is anchored in “object” tags) is actual agnate to Java filtering:

filter activex [-]

Here is an example:

PIX1(config)# clarify activex 80 0 0 0 0

This command configures the PIX to animadversion out all pairs of “object” tags

from all admission Web pages, disabling ActiveX and some Java applets.
