The process of setting up and running Trellix IPS falls into these basic stages:
Deciding where to deploy Trellix Intrusion Prevention System Sensor and in what operating mode
Setting up your Sensors for the desired deployment mode(s)
Installing the Manager software and establishing Sensor-to-Manager communication
Configuring your deployment using the Manager
Viewing and working with data generated by Trellix IPS
Tuning your deployment
Updating your signatures and software
Each of these stages consists of a number of tasks; some are simple, some are complex. You will generally perform steps 1 through 3 only once per Sensor.
