Simple or Advanced Configuration Using the Management Port

The IDP sensor management port provides two different, but compatible,
configuration paths. The QuickStart option lets you configure the default IDP
settings quickly, while the Appliance Configuration Manager (ACM) option lets you
make more advanced changes to the sensor configuration.

After you log into the Web-based tools using the management port, you are
presented with two options: QuickStart and ACM. If you want to do a simple
configuration, click QuickStart and fill out the fields based on the information in
Table 12 on page 26.

If you want to do an advance configuration, click ACM, and then click Start
Configuration Wizard
. Fill out the fields in the wizard based on the information in
Table 13 on page 26.

NOTE:

Because the ACM uses an SSL connection, you must type https:// before the

IP address.
