Web Security Appliance

The IronPort S-Series Web Security Appliance

 (WSA) integrates integrates seamlessly into any 

corporate network to defend against a wide variety of web-based malware threats such as malware, 
spyware, malicious system monitors, Trojans, phishing, and pharming. Additionally, the S-Series 
appliance provides a next generation platform to control and monitor web traffi c that originates from 
within the network.

Use this Quick Star t Guide to get the IronPor t S-Series appliance installed and running on your
network, and refer to the Deployment chapter in the Web Security Appliance 

User Guide

 for 

information about how to confi gure appliance settings.

Before you star t, make sure you have the following equipment:

• Rack cabinet enclosure

• RapidRails

TM

 and adaptor kits

• 10/100/Gigabit BaseT TCP/IP local area network (LAN)

Note:

 The Networking Work-

sheet that is located toward 
the back of this guide is a 
useful prerequisite to running 
the System Setup Wizard. 
Ironpor t strongly recommends 
using the Networking Work-
sheet to plan your deployment 
and record the information 
that you need to complete 
the initial confi guration.

Note:

 To monitor true client IP addresses, 

the L4 Traffi c Monitor should always be 
confi gured inside the fi rewall and before
NAT (Network Address Translation).

Decide how you are going to confi gure the appliance within your network.

The S-Series appliance is typically installed as an additional layer in the network between clients 
and the Internet. Depending on how you deploy the appliance, you may or may not need a Layer 4 
(L4) switch or a WCCP router to direct client traffi c to the appliance. Deployment options include:

• 

Transparent Proxy

 – Web proxy with an L4 switch

• 

Transparent Proxy

 – Web proxy with a WCCP router

• 

Explicit Forward Proxy

 – Connected to a network switch

• 

L4 Traffi c Monitor

 – Ethernet tap (simplex or duplex)

 – 

Simplex Mode:

 Por t T1 receives all outgoing traffi c and por t T2 receives all incoming traffi c.

 – 

Duplex Mode:

 Por t T1 receives all incoming and outgoing traffi c.
