Configuration of ports for M-series devices

Prev Next

To view or configure the settings of the monitoring ports for Trellix IPS M-series devices, go to Devices → <Admin Domain Name> → Devices → <Device_Name> → Setup → Physical Ports. The M-series devices require configuration of XFP and SFP Monitoring ports with certain guidelines regarding the type and functionality of the module.

Note

Trellix supports only those XFP/SFP modules that are purchased through Trellix or from a Trellix-approved vendor.

Note

Donot use XC ports. These ports are reserved for interconnection between the Primary device (M-8000 P) and Secondary device (M-8000 S).
