Re: [isalist] Re: lockdown modeThe "alert" configuration dictates the 
circumstances under which lockdown occurs.  You can define them to suit your 
needs. 

Regarding your "attack" question, no, ISA doesn't go into lockdown because of 
an attack.  That would defeat the purpose ;)

If you want to restart the services first and ask questions later when a 
lockdown occurs, that is completely your choice. I, however, would choose to 
appreciate the security posture of "lockdown" mode (as configured) and to 
perform due diligence in administration of my enterprise firewall before I just 
restart the services that have told you there is a serious issue in the very 
service that is protecting your network.  But that's just me.

  And who told you that you will be able to solve the problem?
  Is the only reason for ISA to go to lock down mode an internal fail? What if 
was an attack and that will not happen again?

  In this case, if you don't solve the problem that caused the symptoms, you 
merely repeat the symptoms.
  Discover and solve the problem first.

  Well in a production environment I would restart the service first and then 
ask ISA why that happened.

  Do what Tim said.
  If you don't know why it happened, it's likely to happen again.

  You have to find out what caused ISA to go into Lockdown first, rectify
  the situation, and then restart the services.

          if an ISA box went into lockdown mode, how could you make it
  return to a normal state? (ISA 2004 SP2)
