When adding a ScreenOS device that uses port modes, select the appropriate port

mode from the Device subtype list, after you select the device type. NSM automatically
sets the license mode to Extended.
Enable transparent mode, if desired (ScreenOS devices only).

NOTE: You cannot change the operational mode after the device has
been modeled.
Click Finish to complete the Add Device wizard. The UI creates a corresponding device

configuration status, or check the configuration status in Device Monitor. The status
displays "Modeled", indicating that the management system has modeled the device,
but the device is not activated and has not connected.
Because undeployed devices are devices that you are not currently using in your network,
they might not have a preexisting device configuration (IP addresses, zones, and
interfaces) that is available for import. You can create a configuration for the device
object in NSM, and then install that configuration on the device.
NOTE: When modeling a NetScreen-500, 5000 series, or ISG series security
device, you must configure the network module (slot) before physical
interfaces appear in the NSM UI. For details on defining the Ethernet card
and slot, see Network and Security Manager Configuring ScreenOS and IDP
Devices Guide.
Double-click the device object to display the device configuration and begin configuring
the device as desired. For details on device configuration, see "Configuring Devices" on
page 187.
After you have created a device configuration for the undeployed device, you are ready
to activate the device and prompt it to connect to the management system. After that
device has made contact with NSM, you can install the configuration you created on the
device.

Devices with Static IP Addresses

A static IP address is an IP address that does not change.
ScreenOS Devices
