Launch the Trellix IPS Manager

Prev Next

Before you begin

  • You must have an Azure subscription account before you begin launching the IPS Manager.
  • Availability zone for creating an MDR.
  • A network security group should be created before launching the Manager.

The Manager is launched as a virtual machine in the Azure environment. When you launch a virtual machine for the Manager, the Manager is pre-installed in the virtual machine.

If you have the Manager behind a firewall, you need to update your firewall rules accordingly such that ports are open for the Manager to communicate with Sensors and the vIPS Controller. For more information on ports used by the Manager to communicate with Sensors and vIPS Controllers, see the section Requirements to deploy Trellix Virtual IPS in Azure environment.

You can deploy the Manager using the Azure UI.
