About This Guide This guide describes the physical features of Juniper Networks Intrusion Detection and Prevention (IDP) solution: the IDP 75, IDP 250, IDP 800, and IDP 8200 sensors. It also explains how to install, configure, update/reimage, and service the IDP system.
This guide is shipped in the box with all new IDP sensors. It provides the basic procedures for getting your IDP system running. With each major software release, Juniper Networks provides the IDP Documentation CD. The CD contains the documentation set in PDF format.
Self-Help Online Tools and Resources For quick and easy problem resolution, Juniper Networks has designed an online self-service portal called the Customer Support Center (CSC) that provides you with the following features: Find CSC offerings: http://www.juniper.net/customers/support/ Search for known bugs: http://www2.juniper.net/kb/ Find product documentation: http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/...
Chapter 1 Planning an Installation This chapter provides an overview of IDP configuration options. This chapter has the following sections: Installation Roadmap on page 1 IDP Configuration Basics on page 2 Installation Roadmap This section provides a high-level roadmap of an IDP sensor installation. With each step is a reference to more information.
This section provides an introduction to IDP configuration basics. An IDP configuration consists of the following components: IDP Sensor Placement Juniper Networks IDP sensor is an ideal solution to be implemented inline between gateway firewalls and DMZ or internal networks. IDP sensor placement is an important part of the installation.
To use an IDP sensor as a passive intrusion detection system without prevention capabilities, deploy the sensor in passive sniffer mode to monitor and log network traffic. If the sensor is attached to a network switch, you must configure the switch to mirror all traffic to that port. The IDP sensor defaults to sniffer mode.

IDP 75, 250, 800, and 8200 Installation Guide Figure 6: IDP 8200 Front Panel Traffic Ports (Forwarding Interfaces) The IDP 75, 250, 800, and 8200 sensors have traffic ports (forwarding interfaces), which are located on the front of each device. Sensors can have a combination of copper and fiber ports.
Table 4: NIC State Options Settings Modes Availability NIC bypass Transparent Sensor failure mode only Graceful shutdown External Transparent Sensor failure only bypass unit mode only NICS off All inline Sensor failure modes Graceful shutdown Normal State When the IDP is active and NICs are in the normal state, NICs only pass Layer 2 traffic if in transparent mode and if Layer 2 bypass is enabled.
IDP 75, 250, 800, and 8200 Installation Guide The fiber Ethernet ports are standard interfaces and do not incorporate the integrated bypass feature. Automatic bypass is available for fiber ports through third-party devices. NIC Bypass and Cable Choices When NIC bypass becomes active, it physically connects the pair of forwarding interfaces to each other with a crossover cable.
Peer Port Modulation After peer port modulation (PPM) is enabled, the sensor deactivates all the interfaces in that virtual router if the link goes down for any of the interfaces in a virtual router. All devices connected to the virtual router will detect a port failure and must be configured to take appropriate action.
IDP 75, 250, 800, and 8200 Installation Guide Table 6: IDP Sensor Power Supplies IDP Sensor 800, 8200 IDP Sensor LEDs This section describes the LEDs for the following IDP sensor components: System Status LEDs The IDP 75, 250, 800, and 8200 sensors each have three system status lights on the front panel to indicate power, hard drive activity, and overheating.
Figure 8: LEDs for Management and HA Ports Table 8: IDP Sensor Management and High Availability Port LED Port LED LINK TX/RX Traffic Port LEDs The IDP 75, 250, 800, and 8200 sensors each have two traffic status LEDs on each traffic port.

Chapter 3 Installing the Sensor This chapter describes how to install the IDP sensor in an equipment rack. This chapter has the following sections: General Installation Guidelines on page 17 Rack Mounting the IDP Sensor on page 18 Connecting Power on page 20 General Installation Guidelines Observing the following precautions can prevent injuries, equipment failures, and shutdowns.
The IDP 75 sensor occupies one rack unit (RU) in an equipment rack. One RU is 1.75 inches (44.45 mm) high. The IDP 250, IDP 800 (copper ports), and IDP 8200 sensors occupy two rack units in an equipment rack.
Figure 9: Rail with Hinged Rear Bracket 2. Rotate the hinges on both rails so that they allow the device to slide into the rack. 3. Slide the chassis into a set of rails. CAUTION: Be sure to leave at least two inches of clearance on the sides of each chassis for the cooling air inlet and exhaust ports.
2. Connect the other end of the power cable to the electrical outlet. 3. (For IDP 800 and 8200 sensors only) Connect the second power cable to the 4. (For IDP 800 and 8200 sensors only) Connect the other end of the second...
Chapter 4 Configuring the IDP Sensor This chapter describes how to connect to the IDP sensor and configure the device for your network.

To configure your sensor using the console serial port, do the following: 1. Connect one end of the provided RJ-45 null modem serial cable to the CONSOLE port located on the front of the sensor chassis. 2. Connect the other end of the cable to the serial port of your workstation. 3.
IDP 75, 250, 800, and 8200 Installation Guide 9. Type Y, and then press Enter. 10. Type your default route (gateway address) and press Enter. 11. Type N if the time is correct. If the time is not correct, type Y and follow the Configuration of the management port is now complete.
2. On a connected computer, open a Web browser. Type https://192.168.1.1. Because the ACM uses an SSL connection, you must type https:// before the NOTE: IP address. 3. Type the default user name (root) and password (abc123). 4. Skip to “Simple or Advanced Configuration Using the Management Port” on page 25.

(Normally, these can be set to auto-detect. With some switches, the speed and duplex settings have to be set manually.) The VLAN interfaces you want to configure.
IDP 75, 250, 800, and 8200 Installation Guide In proxy-ARP or router mode, if you are using multiple subnets in your protected network, you must configure static routes on the IDP sensor to these subnets. Without static routes, incoming traffic to those subnets can be lost. Alternatively, you can create a static route from the IDP sensor to an internal gateway that contains inbound routes to the protected subnets.
Chapter 5 Adding the Sensor to NSM This chapter describes how to add the IDP sensor to NetScreen-Security Manager (NSM) and push the Recommended policy. When you have completed the steps in this chapter, your IDP sensor will be protecting your network. You must have NSM installed to complete the steps in this chapter.

Replacing a Power Supply (IDP 800, and 8200 Only) The power supplies on the IDP 75 and 250 sensors are in a fixed configuration so you cannot replace them. The IDP 800 sensor has two hot swappable power supplies while the IDP 8200 sensor has three.
6. Attach the other end of the power cord to the power source. Replacing a Hard Drive (IDP 800 and 8200 Only) The IDP 800 and 8200 sensors come with two mirrored hard drives. Both drives are hot-swappable on failure. If one fails, it may be replaced without interrupting the function of the sensor.
Leave both drives in place until the hard drive array is rebuilt. CAUTION: Removing either drive while the hard drive array is rebuilding can damage the system. Chapter 7: Servicing the Device Replacing a Hard Drive (IDP 800 and 8200 Only)
