To isolate and protect your management trac, Trellix strongly recommends you to use a separate, dedicated
management subnet to interconnect the Sensors and the Manager.

How to use peer ports
You must use two peer monitoring ports of the Sensor to deploy it full-duplex mode. On the Sensor, the numbered ports are
internally wired in pairs to accommodate the trac.
On NS5100 and NS5200 Sensors, G0, G1, and G2 indicate xed port slots.
Since monitoring ports are internally wired, when you disable one of the ports in a pair, the corresponding port is
also disabled.
The following ethernet ports are coupled and must be used together.
