Editing PEPs

After you define the PEP configurations, push the configurations from ETEMS to the targeted PEPs. 

To push ETEMS configurations to PEPs:
1 In the ETEMS Appliances view, select the target PEPs.
2 On  the  Tools menu, click Put Configurations. 
3 Some appliance models must be rebooted for configuration changes to take effect. Rebooting 

interrupts the data traffic on the PEP’s remote and local ports for several minutes. To reboot the PEP 
immediately following a successful put operation, click the Reboot appliances after operations 
complete check box on the Put Configurations window. Clear the check box to reboot at a later time. 

4 In the Put Configurations window, click Put to push configurations. 
5 Click Close to return to the Appliances view, and then refresh the appliance status (Tools > Refresh 

Status). If you chose to reboot the PEPs after loading the configurations, wait a few minutes for the 
reboot operation to complete before refreshing the status.

PEP configurations can be edited from ETEMS or ETPM. To simplify the editing process, we 
recommend editing all PEPs from ETEMS, where you can edit configurations and push them to the PEPs. 
If you edit a PEP from ETPM, you will have to switch to ETEMS to push the modified configuration to 
the PEP.
