Table 53: Port Pair Parameters
Parameter
Description
Port Pairs
Source Port
T
he user-defined source port for received traffic.
Destination Port
T
he user-defined destination port for transmitted traffic.
Operation
The operation mode assigned to a pair of ports.
Values:
•
Forward—The traffic is forwarded without any inspection.
•
Process—The traffic passes thought the CPU and is inspected for attacks,
bandwidth, and so on.
Failure Mode
Specifies whether the traffic passes through (bypasses) a pair of RJ-45 ports
when the platform is rebooting or is powered down (for example, if the device
fails).
Values:
•
Fail-Close—Traffic does not pass through when the platform is powered
down. When a pair of ports enters fail-close state, traffic is blocked and
the link appears to be down (no power), and switches that are connected
to the DefensePro device detect the link as being down.
•
Fail-Open—Traffic passes through (not processed by DefensePro) when
the platform is powered down.
Note:
For more information, see
Internal Bypass for RJ-45 Ports, page 46
In Port
Specifies which port in the pair is designated as the inbound port—the source
or destination port. This setting is used in real-time reports for inbound and
outbound traffic.
Advanced Parameters
Enable Interface
Grouping
Specifies whether the device groups the statuses of the port-pair interfaces.
When the option is enabled, if one port of a port pair is disconnected,
DefensePro sets the status of the paired port to disconnected also. Therefore,
When the option is enabled; so a remote device connected to the DefensePro
device perceives the same disconnected status.
Typically, the option is enabled when DefensePro is configured between
switches that use link redundancy; interface grouping is the only way both
switches always perceive the same DefensePro interfaces status.
Default: Disabled
