McAfee® IntruShield® IPS 4.1 IntruShield Sensor 3000 Product Guide Attaching cables to the I-3000 Sensor Cabling for SPAN mode fail-over pair even if the Primary sensor has some of its monitoring port pairs in nonInline (TAP/SPAN) mode is provided. For example, in an I-3000, you may have port pairs as 1A-1B, 2A-2B, 3A-3B and 4A4B configured in in-line mode and ports 5A, 5B configured in SPAN mode. Note: TCP reset is not supported when connected in TAP mode. Cabling I-3000 sensors for Failover Monitoring ports 6A-and 6B are the interconnection ports on the I-3000. A failover cable is the only additional hardware required to support failover communication between two I-3000 sensors. When 6A-6B interconnection ports are connected in failover mode with 10 or 100 Mpbs speed value, during failover creation the ports will be updated to 1 Gbps speed value. ► To connect two I-3000s for failover: 1 Plug the cable appropriate for use with your GBIC into port 6A of the active sensor. 2 Connect the other end of the cable to port 6A of the standby sensor. 3 Plug the cable appropriate for use with your GBIC into port 6B of the active sensor. 4 Connect the other end of the cable to port 6B of the standby sensor.
