Cisco Cisco Web Security Appliance S380 Guida Utente

To migrate your deployment from a physical appliance to a virtual appliance, see the virtual appliance 
installation guide referenced in the previous topic and the Release Notes for your AsyncOS version. 

Follow the instructions in the Cisco 170 Series Hardware Installation Guide to mount the appliance, 
cable the appliance for management, and connect the appliance to power.

If you plan to physically connect the Appliance to a WCCP v2 router for transparent redirection, 
first verify that the WCCP router supports Layer 2 redirection.

Be aware of Cisco configuration recommendations:

Use simplex cabling (separate cables for incoming and outgoing traffic) if possible for enhanced 
performance and security.

Connect the Management interface if you have not already done so:

Connect the appliance to internet traffic.

Gather and record setup information.

Run the System Setup Wizard.

(Optional) Connect upstream proxies.

M1

Connect M1 to where it can:

Send and receive Management traffic. 

(Optional) Send and receive web proxy data traffic. 

You can connect a laptop directly to M1 to administer the appliance.

To connect to the management interface using a hostname 
(http://hostname:8080), add the appliance hostname and IP address to your DNS 
server database.

P1 and P2 (optional)

Available for outbound management services traffic but not administration.
