Configure transparent ports

Morning,

 

Just a quick question. Is it possible to configure two ports into a completely transparent bridge? Basically, I want traffic to flow into one port on my device and out of another without it ever "seeing" the XG software. Obviously, I want the XG to be able to use its features like the various firewalls and the IDS etc on this data flow; but I don't want it routable or have an IP address.

Does this make sense? If this is possible, would someone be able to direct me to part of the guide that states how to do it?

 

Cheers

  • I'm not sure why. That's not how the majority of in-line IDS that I've worked with in the past work. Yeah, you have a management address; but that's usually on a different port connected to a different network. 

    Cheers for the heads-up about the NAT. I'll make sure to do that!

    Thanks for all your help guys! This will have to do!
