Requirements and Considerations
This topic provides requirements and considerations that apply to the
configuration process in this guide. Review these requirements and considerations
before you begin to configure the SiteProtector SP1001 appliance.
Where to configure the SiteProtector SP1001 appliance?
Entering information in the LCD controller module can be time consuming. To
save time, use the module to establish network connectivity, and then use the
System Administration tab in the SiteProtector Console to perform additional
configuration tasks.
Installing the SecurityFusion module
The SiteProtector SP1001 appliance includes a license for the SecurityFusion
module, but you must install the SecurityFusion module on a separate computer.
See the
SiteProtector SecurityFusion Module Guide
for the procedures required to
install and configure the SecurityFusion module.
Important consideration for rack-mounted appliances
Write down the Product Key of your SiteProtector SP1001 appliance before you
install it. The Product Key is located on the Microsoft Certificate of Authenticity
(COA), which is a yellow sticker on the bottom of the SiteProtector SP1001
appliance. This sticker may become inaccessible if you install the SiteProtector
SP1001 appliance in a rack.
Important:
If you need to restore the SiteProtector SP1001 appliance to its factory
defaults, you must know the Product Key. See “Restoring Factory Defaults” on
page 30.
Unsupported configurations
IBM ISS does not support customized configurations. To avoid putting the
SiteProtector SP1001 appliance in an unsupported state, do not do the following:
v
install, reinstall, or remove applications from the SiteProtector SP1001 appliance
v
add the SiteProtector SP1001 appliance to a network domain in which domain
group policies require Windows Automatic updates
v
apply hardened Windows security policies that could make the SiteProtector
SP1001 appliance unusable
To return the SiteProtector SP1001 appliance to a supported state, you must restore
the SiteProtector SP1001 appliance to its factory image or default settings, which
erases all data, including events from the database.
