Cabling the Response port
The sensors’ Response ports are used to send responses to attacks; when operating
in TAP or SPAN mode, for example, you cannot inject response packets via a tap.
You must use a Response port.
To connect the Response port to a network device:
1
Plug a Cat-5e Ethernet cable into the
Response
port (labeled
Rx
on the sensor
front panel).
2
Connect the other end of the cable to the network device (for example, hub,
switch, router) through which you want to respond to attacks.
Cabling the Fail-Open port
Fail-open functionality for the GE Monitoring ports is accomplished using the standard
Gigabit Fail-open Bypass Kit, sold separately. (Both Copper and Optical versions are
available.)
Fail-open functionality for the 10 Gigabit Monitoring ports is accomplished using the
standard 10 Gigabit (Optical) Fail-open Bypass Kit, sold separately.
For more information, see the documentation that accompanies the Kit.
Cabling the Management port
The Management (Mgmt) port is used for communication with the Manager server.
To connect the sensor to the Manager server:
1
Plug a Cat-5e Ethernet cable into the Management port (labeled
Mgmt
on the
sensor front panel).
