This chapter provides a general outline of major tasks involved in setting up a
core Symantec Network Security intrusion detection system. It describes basic
tasks, including accessing the management interfaces (Network Security
console, serial console, and LCD panel), accessing nodes and sensors, and
establishing user permissions and access. It also describes deployment
considerations and examples of ways to deploy Symantec Network Security.
The Symantec Network Security software and the Symantec Network Security
7100 Series appliance employ a common core architecture that provides
detection, analysis, storage, and response functionality. Most procedures in this
section apply to both the 7100 Series appliance and the Symantec Network
Security 4.0 software. The 7100 Series appliance also provides additional
functionality that is unique to an appliance. Each section describes this
additional functionality in detail.
