Next Generation Firewall Hardware Guide | Models 2201, 2205, 2210 Example before and after ID mapping Connect network and management cables Connect the appliance to your networks. The management connection allows you to view the system console. Note Ethernet ports are mapped to interface IDs during the initial configuration. The ports and port numbers of the physical appliance must match the interface definitions and interface IDs configured for the engine in the Management Client.

In the network interface configuration options, make sure that the autodetected information is correct and that all interfaces have been detected. If autodetection fails, add network drivers manually. For detailed instructions, see the Forcepoint Next Generation Firewall Installation Guide. If the number of ports in the new module differs from the old module, adjust the mapping of interfaces to interface IDs.
