CHAPTER 4 Install and cable the Sensor Each McAfee® Network Security Sensor (Sensor) model are shipped with documentation on how to set up the Sensor and configure it to communicate with the McAfee® Network Security Manager Manager. This documentation consists of model-specific Product Guides and Quick Start Guides and a model-generic Sensor Configuration Guide. These documents provide detailed installation, configuration and cabling instructions for your Sensor. You may need special equipment depending on your deployment strategy. Certain Sensor models have Fast Ethernet (FE) ports. Each FE port requires a Network Security Platform dongles for In-line Fail-closed mode. Dongles are included with FE-port Sensors. Gigabit Ethernet (GE) port Sensors require the optional Gigabit Fail-Open Bypass Kit (Optical Single-mode, Optical Multimode, or Copper), sold separately, for In-line Fail-Open mode.

Install and cable the Sensor
Each McAfee
®
Network Security Sensor (Sensor) model are shipped with documentation
on how to set up the Sensor and configure it to communicate with the McAfee
®
Network
Security Manager Manager. This documentation consists of model-specific Product
Guides and Quick Start Guides and a model-generic Sensor Configuration Guide. These
documents provide detailed installation, configuration and cabling instructions for your
Sensor.
You may need special equipment depending on your deployment strategy. Certain Sensor
models have Fast Ethernet (FE) ports. Each FE port requires a Network Security Platform
dongles for In-line Fail-closed mode. Dongles are included with FE-port Sensors. Gigabit
Ethernet (GE) port Sensors require the optional Gigabit Fail-Open Bypass Kit (Optical
Single-mode, Optical Multimode, or Copper), sold separately, for In-line Fail-Open mode.
The following table shows the monitoring port types for each Network Security Sensor
model.
