Overview
Deployment Options for Routing Mode—Threat Protection
3. Verify that the host switch’s configuration includes every VLAN that you
want to route through the module—whether you want to control traffic
that is forwarded on that VLAN, that originates from that VLAN, or both.
4. Remove all IP addresses on the selected VLANs from the host switch
except the switch’s management address.
However, if you plan to have the host switch act as the TMS zl Module’s
default gateway, also leave an IP address on the VLAN that connects to
an external router.
5. If the host switch no longer needs to route any traffic, you should disable
routing on the switch.
6. Access the TMS zl Module’s CLI through the host switch’s CLI.
7. Install the HP TMS zl Module Product License. If you plan to use the IDS/
IPS capability, you will need to purchase and activate an IPS subscription.
For detailed instructions on this step, see “Install the Product License
Key” in Chapter 2: “Initial Setup in Routing Mode” and “Signature Detec-
tion” in Chapter 6: “Intrusion Detection and Prevention.”
8. By default, the TMS zl Module’s operating mode is routing mode. Keep
this default setting.
See “Routing Mode” on page 1-7 for an overview.
