Select an integration mode for McAfee DLP Monitor
McAfee DLP Monitor must be physically integrated into the network so it can capture traffic. There are
two integration modes: use of a mirror (SPAN) port on a LAN switch, or placement of a network tap
between the network and the appliance.
SPAN port configuration
A SPAN (Switched Port Analyzer) port configuration enables monitoring by transparently copying traffic
from source ports to the destination port to which McAfee DLP Monitor is connected.
If two capture ports are used, two traffic sources (for example, different subnets) must be used.
Certain switch models permit the use of a “remote SPAN”, or “RSPAN” capability, which allows ports
from multiple switches to be mirrored to the port to which McAfee DLP Monitor is connected. If you
want to mirror multiple ports on multiple switches to your DLP appliance, contact the switch vendor for
details on configuring RSPAN.
