Chapter 14 Configuring Inspection for Management Application Protocols
DCERPC Inspection
This typically involves a client querying a server called the Endpoint Mapper listening on a well known
port number for the dynamically allocated network information of a required service. The client then sets
up a secondary connection to the server instance providing the service. The security appliance allows the
appropriate port number and network address and also applies NAT, if needed, for the secondary
connection.
DCERPC inspect maps inspect for native TCP communication between the EPM and client on well
known TCP port 135. Map and lookup operations of the EPM are supported for clients. Client and server
can be located in any security zone. The embedded server IP address and Port number are received from
the applicable EPM response messages. Since a client may attempt multiple connections to the server
port returned by EPM, multiple use of pinholes are allowed, which have user configurable timeouts.
Note DCERPC inspection only supports communication between the EPM and clients to open pinholes
through theASA. Clients using RPC communication that does not use the EPM is not supported with
DCERPC inspection.

The Select DCERPC Map dialog box lets you select or create a new DCERPC map. A DCERPC map
lets you change the configuration values used for DCERPC application inspection. The Select DCERPC
Map table provides a list of previously configured maps that you can select for application inspection.

DCERPC is a protocol widely used by Microsoft distributed client and server applications that allows
software clients to execute programs on a server remotely.
This typically involves a client querying a server called the Endpoint Mapper (EPM) listening on a well
known port number for the dynamically allocated network information of a required service. The client
then sets up a secondary connection to the server instance providing the service. The security appliance
allows the appropriate port number and network address and also applies NAT, if needed, for the
secondary connection.
