Step 4. Enable Cisco Threat Response under Cloud Services on the SSE portal, as shown in the image.

Step 5.  Make sure WSA has reachability  on port 443 to the SSE portal:

- api.eu.sse.itd.cisco.com (Europe)

- api-sse.cisco.com (America)

Step 2. Enter the registration token obtained from the Security Services Exchange portal in WSA and click Register, as shown in the image.

Step  3. After a few seconds, you would see registration is successful.

Caution: Make sure the token generated is used before it expires.

Step 4.On the SSE portal, you can see the device status.

Step 5. On the CTR portal appears the device registered.

You can associate this device to a module, navigate to Modules > Add New Module > Web Security Appliance, as shown in the image.

The device is now integrated. You can pass through traffic from the WSA and investigate threats on the CTR portal.
