Deployment of NS-series Sensors
Deployment of a Sensor requires knowledge of your network to help determine the level of conguration and the number of
installed Sensors. You also need to determine the number of Trellix ePolicy Orchestrator - On-prem servers required to protect
your network. The Sensor is purpose-built to monitor trac across one or more network segments.
Following is an example of a network topology using Gigabit Ethernet throughput. In the illustration, Trellix Intrusion Prevention
System provides IPS protection to outsourced servers. High port-density and virtualization provides a highly scalable solution,
while Trellix IPS protects against web and eCommerce mail server exploits.
