SharepointASM Information?

Hi, I was wondering if there's any information available pertaining to implementing ASM around a SharePoint server. I see some information regarding optimizing HTTP/TCP settings in LTM, and some mentions of SharePoint and Web Accelerator -- but nothing specific to ASM.

 

 

Just wondering if there are any inane details about SharePoint<->ASM implementations that I should know about, or if it would be a pretty standard and basic configuration.

 

 

Thanks.

    eltayler,

     

     

    Not sure if you are aware, but we actually added a SharePoint 2007 security policy in one of the more recent releases of ASM (I believe it was v9.4.2).

     

     

    So securing your MOSS deployment may be as easy as selecting that SharePoint policy. It was built to thwart most of the http based attacks we have seen launched against MOSS.

     

     

    The ASM Configuration Guide has some more information on the actual policy.

     

     

    Let me know if you need more information.
