that use IPS to detect and prevent attacks on your network assets
deployment issues, such as which network segments you want to monitor
with your 3D Sensors, and why
•
how you will physically connect the sensors to your network, taking into
account any special network configuration factors, such as firewall
placement, VPN deployments
•
whether you will use a Nortel Defense Center to aggregate and correlate
RNA and intrusion events

IPS installation considerations
IPS is the intrusion prevention and detection component of the Nortel TPS 3D
System. Before you install a 3D Sensor with IPS, you should consider how your
network is configured and how you want to deploy the various components of the
Nortel TPS 3D System within it.
Every network architecture is different, and every enterprise has different security
needs. This section lists some of the factors you should consider as you formulate
your deployment plans and includes a description of how the Nortel TPS 3D
System can help you meet common network security goals.
Your deployment decisions for 3D Sensors with IPS will be based on a variety of
factors. Answering these questions can help you understand the vulnerable areas
of your network and clarify your intrusion detection and prevention needs.
•
Will you be deploying your 3D Sensor with passive or inline interface sets?
Does your 3D Sensor support multiple detection engines with a mix of
interface sets, some passive and others inline? See
“Understanding
detection engines and interface sets” on page 18
for more information about
detection engines and interface sets and how they influence your sensor
deployment.
•
How will you connect the 3D Sensors to the network? Hubs? Taps?
Spanning ports on switches? See
“Connecting sensors to your network” on
page 20
for more information about methods for connecting the sensing
interfaces on your sensor to your network.
