B. If a designated source Web Filter (to be used with the Threat Analysis Reporter)
is already installed on the network, disconnect the cable that connects this Web
Filter to the switch.
If the designated Web Filter has not yet been installed, disregard this sub-step
and proceed to sub-step C.
C. Using a crossover cable, connect one end to the Switch's port configured to be
the destination port of the Port Mirror.
If adding a Threat Analysis Reporter to an existing installation, this port would
be the port that was originally occupied by the listening interface of the Web
