94 Populating the topology database
Adding nodes and objects
9 In Description, enter an optional description of up to 255 characters, and
click OK.
You may want to enter the serial number of the appliance here for later
reference. The serial number is found on the label on the back panel of the
appliance, with the prefix S/N.
See "Description"
Note: After adding a 7100 Series node to the topology tree, you must
perform initial configuration on the designated appliance. The initial
configuration process populates the fields in the Advanced Network Options
tab.
See "Viewing advanced network options"
Caution: Click Topology > Save Changes before quitting the Network
Security console. You will lose any unsaved changes when you exit.
Adding the 7100 Series node automatically creates the interface objects. You
cannot add or delete interfaces on a 7100 Series node, but you can create
interface groups or in-line pairs from the existing interfaces on the node.
For the sensor to run, you must add a protection policy to each interface,
interface group, or in-line pair. To enable TrackBack to query flow data from
this node, you must apply the sensor parameter for flow statistics, and execute
the TrackBack response policy.

The Advanced Network Options tab contains information about the designated
appliance that this node represents in the topology tree. The initial
configuration process automatically provides this information. The fields
remain blank until then.
After physical installation and initial configuration, you can edit the node object
and click the Advanced Network Options tab to view the populated fields.
