IDP 75, 250, 800, and 8200 Installation Guide

Simple Configuration Values

A simple configuration has the following settings and values:

„Root password—abc123

„Fully qualified domain name—Blank

„High availability mode—Disabled

„RADIUS support—Disabled

„Network interfaces—Auto

„Virtual routers—

„Sniffer mode: One virtual router created (vr0)

„Transparent mode: One virtual router created for each pair of interfaces

„DNS—Disabled

„NTP—Disabled

„SSH on management port—Enabled

„Run ACM process on sensor startup—Enabled

Advanced Configuration

If you wish to use a sensor mode other than inline transparent or passive sniffer, or if you do not want to use the default options for the other settings, you will have to use the Appliance Configuration Manager. See “ACM Advanced Configuration” on page 26.

Connecting to the Sensor

Your sensor has two management interfaces: a console serial port and a management Ethernet port. You can use either one to set the sensor IP address and other basic configuration parameters.

The console serial port is used only for configuring and troubleshooting. After the sensor is configured, you can disconnect the console port. The management port, however, must be able to reach the NSM device server over the network. For this reason, you must give the sensor an IP address that the NSM device server can reach.

Using the Console Serial Port to Configure the Sensor

Use this procedure if you want to set up your sensor in simple configuration, or if you just want to set an IP address so the sensor is reachable over the network. After the sensor’s management interface settings are in place, you can reconfigure the sensor over the network.
