Configuring MDR with NAT

Prev Next

To set up MDR with NAT, consider the following scenarios:

Scenario 1: Manager-Sensor communication with NAT and Manager-Manager communication without NAT

Configure the public IP address (external reachable) in the Peer Host IP address field to establish Manager-Sensor communication.

Note

To support multiple NIC cards, select the respective IP address in the Sensor communication Interfacefield during installation. For more information, refer to Trellix Intrusion Prevention System Installation Guide.

Configure the OOB Peer Manager IP field with the local IP address of the peer Manager to reach the Manager without using NAT.

If Manager is in a private network, enter the public IP address in the Peer Host IP address field of the Secondary Manager.

Scenario 2: Manager-Sensor Communication with NAT and Manager-Manager communication with NAT

Configure the public IP address (external reachable) in the Peer Host IP address field to establish Manager-Sensor communication.

You need not configure OOB Peer Manager IP field as communication takes place using the Peer Host IP Address field.

Note

In case the peer Manager uses different translated IP addresses, you can configure the public (external reachable) IP address in the OOB Peer Manager IP field.
