ExtraHop EDA 8320 Manual

Deploy the EDA 8320 sensor
Published: 2024-06-24
This guide explains how to install the rack-mounted EDA 8320 sensor.
This installation enables you to run network performance monitoring, network detection and response,
and intrusion detection on a single sensor. By adding the IDS module, you can also upload and view IDS
detections.
Note: If you have enabled the IDS module on this sensor, and your ExtraHop system does not have
direct access to the Internet and access to ExtraHop Cloud Services, you will need to upload
IDS rules manually. For more information, see
through the REST API
Installation prerequisites
To install the sensor, your environment must meet the following requirements:
Sensor
1U of rack space and electrical connections for 2 x 800 W power supplies.
Management
One 10/100/1000 BASE-T network port or one 10G BASE-SR port for sensor management.
Monitoring (capture)
High performance interfaces: One to two network ports for connection to 25 GbE or 10 GbE sources
of packet data.
Management + monitoring interfaces: One to three network ports for connection to 1 GbE sources
of packet data.
Network Access
Ensure that administrators can access the Administration settings on the sensor over TCP port 443.
