The required settings for HyperTerminal are:

Baud rate: 38400

Stop Bits: 1

Number of Bits: 8

Control Flow: None

Parity: None

e

Plug the female end of a power cable into the power inlet and plug the other end into a power
source. The Sensor ships with standard US power and international cables.

The M-1250/M-1450 does not have a power switch; you need to only plug the power
cable into a power source.

Cable the Monitoring ports

This procedure describes how to cable a Sensor to run in In-Line mode.

a

Plug the cable appropriate for use into one of the Monitoring ports labeled xA (for example, 1A).

b

Plug another cable into the peer of the
port used in the earlier step. This port
will be labeled xB (for example, 1B).

c

Connect the other end of each cable to
the network devices that you want to
monitor. (For example, if you plan to
monitor traffic between a switch and a
router, connect the cable connected to
1A to the router and the one connected to 1B to the switch.)

For instructions on how to cable the Sensor to run in other operating modes, see
McAfee Network Security Platform M-1250/—1450 Sensor Product Guide

Following steps briefly explain the Manager installation:

a

Prepare the system according to the requirements outlined in McAfee Network Security Platform
Installation Guide
 and the Network Security Platform Release Notes.

b

Close all open applications.

c
