Cabling the Response ports
The sensor's Response ports are used to send responses to attacks when operating
in SPAN or tap mode. You must use a Response port to inject response packets to
the switches or routers.
To connect the Response port to a network device:
1
Plug a Cat 5/Cat 5e 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 Management port
The Management (Mgmt) port is used for communication with the ISM server.
To connect the sensor to the ISM server:
1
Plug a Cat 5/Cat 5e cable into the Management port (labeled
Mgmt
on the sensor
front panel).
2
Connect the other end of the cable to the network device (for example, hub,
switch, router) that in turn connects to the ISM server.
Note:
To isolate and protect your management traffic, McAfee strongly
recommends using a separate, dedicated management subnet to interconnect the
sensors and the ISM.
