IDP functions as a plug and play bridge device filtering malicious traffic from attacking your networks. With continuous signatures update, users can get free from network-based intrusions. In this example, we describe how to deploy and configure ZyWALL IDP10 in a network. Since ZyWALL IDP10 is a bridge device, users don’t need to change the existing network topology when they deploy it. Two things matter are

Determine the target network/systems to protect.

Assign an IP address to “Management” port to make management of ZyWALL IDP10 possible in your existing network.

The following diagram and table illustrate the network topology and IP address assignment of the example network.
