Step 2: Physically Connect The Unit To The Network - 8e6 Technologies Threat Analysis Reporter TAR 1.0 Quick Start Manual

Step 2: Physically Connect the Unit to the Network

After performing initial setup procedures for the Threat Analysis Reporter, the unit should
be physically connected to the network. This step requires a standard CAT-5E cable to
connect the unit to the network. An additional CAT-5E cable is required if the Ethernet
Tap unit will be installed for bandwidth monitoring.
A. Plug one end of a standard CAT-5E cable into the Threat Analysis Reporter's LAN 1
port, the port on the left.
B. Plug the other end of the CAT-5E cable into an open port on the network switch.
Bandwidth Management
If you choose to install the Ethernet Tap for bandwidth monitoring, you will need to con-
nect it to the Threat Analysis Reporter at this point. Refer to Appendix A at the end of this
document for instructions on how to connect the Ethernet Tap unit.
