Configuring the IDP Sensor

This chapter describes how to connect to the IDP sensor and configure the device for your network. After you have configured the sensor, you need to connect the device in your network.

This chapter has the following sections:

„Initial Configuration Options on page 21

„Connecting to the Sensor on page 22

„Connecting Forwarding Interfaces on page 28

„Verifying Traffic Flow on page 28

„Connecting the High Availability Port on page 28

Initial Configuration Options

When you first configure your sensor, you can choose a simple configuration that sets options to the most commonly used settings, or you can do an advanced configuration that allows you to choose each option individually.

Simple Configuration

A simple configuration can be done using the console serial port and the

EasyConfig utility, or through the management port and the QuickStart utility.

Simple Configuration Settings

A simple configuration lets you specify the following settings:

„Sensor mode (inline transparent or passive sniffer)

„IP address

„Netmask

„Default gateway

„Time and time zone
