McAfee® IntruShield® IPS 4.1 Attaching Cables to the M-6050
M-6050 Sensor Product Guide Cabling the Monitoring port
2 Connect the other end of the cable to the network device (for example, hub,
switch, router) that in turn connects to the Manager server.
Note: To isolate and protect your management traffic, McAfee strongly
recommends using a separate, dedicated management subnet to interconnect the
sensors and the Manager.
Cabling the Monitoring port
Connect to the network devices you will be monitoring via the sensor Monitoring
ports. You can deploy sensors in the operating modes shown in the following table.
Cabling instructions for the sensor Monitoring ports are shown on the pages
indicated.
To cable the M-6050 in this mode... See...

In-line mode (fail-open) Using fail-open hardware
External tap mode Cabling for TAP mode

Failover Cabling the Failover interconnection ports
Using peer ports
All full-duplex sensor deployment modes require the use of two peer monitoring ports
on the sensor. On the sensors, the numbered ports are wired in pairs to
accommodate the traffic.
The following XFP 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports and SFP Gigabit Ethernet ports are
coupled and must be used together:
Port Pairs (and Transceiver Type)
1A and 1B (XFP)
2A and 2B (XFP)
3A and 3B (XFP)
4A and 4B (XFP)
5A and 5B (SFP)
6A and 6B (SFP)
7A and 7B (SFP)
8A and 8B (SFP)
