communication between master blocking sensor and blocking fowarding sensor

[inagaria]

1. How does communication between master blocking sensor and blocking fowarding sensor take place?

RDEP or SSH or SSL? which one?

[pcomeaux · Accepted solution]

The Blocking Forwarding Sensors will use RDEP over 443 (https) to communicate with the Master Blocking Sensor.

Make sure on the Master Blocking Sensor to permit connections from the Blocking Forwarding Sensors under the Allowed Hosts portion of the configuration.

Here's a link for how to do this with IEV:
