If your advanced Firewall policies have a require-authentication rule, the Sensor redirects the users to its Guest Portal if it cannot determine whether they have valid AD logon credentials. For this redirection, you must configure the IP address and related details to the Sensor monitoring ports.
You can configure the IP details regardless of the port deployment mode, but redirection to Guest Portal is effective only with inline ports. These settings apply to both the ports of the monitoring port pair. The monitoring port IPs that you configure must be reachable to the hosts being monitored.
Each monitoring port pair used for Firewall must have a unique IP address. For Sensors in failover, you must configure the IP settings separately for both the Sensors. Also, you must use unique IP addresses.

Click the Devices tab.
Select the domain from the Domain drop-down list.
On the left pane, click the Devices tab.
Select the device from the Device drop-down list.
For standalone Sensors, select Setup → IP Bindings.
For Sensors in a stack, select Member Sensors → <Stackname-node id> → Setup → IP Bindings.
For Sensors in failover, select <Device Name> → Member Sensors → <Sensorname-node id> → Setup → IP Bindings.
For a stack of Sensors in failover, select <Device Name> → Member Sensors → <Stackname-node id> → Setup → IP Bindings.
In case of failover Sensors, use the steps below to configure the IP details for the corresponding ports of the peer Sensor.
Enter the IP details in the corresponding fields.
