How can I use the manager API in order to manually upload new IPS signatures?

[liviu]

Hi,

I need to find a way to automate the McAfee IPS signature deployment in an environment without internet access. The McAfee documentation is the worst I have ever touched so far and did not help me at all. The Manager and Sensor are in a SCADA environment and Internet access is not an option.

Did anybody manage to automate the manually upload of signature files?

I managed to find something related to the API:

https://docs.mcafee.com/bundle/network-security-platform-9.1.x-manager-api-reference-guide/page/GUID...

but this thing is not intuitive at all and I was not able to upload the new IPS file to the manager.

Can somebody assist with this?

Thanks,

Liviu
