Deployment Scenarios

IntruGuard appliances are simple to deploy appliances with fail-over capability built into the solution.

Here are some typical deployment scenarios:

Typical Deployment for a Small Hosting Company or a Web Property

Notes:

• You may have a router/switch in your deployment. In that case, you will directly connect the appliance’s output to your router/switch.
• You may have a just a single server rather than multiple machines in your network, in that case, you will simply connect IntruGuard appliance’s feed to your server.
• The appliance is not a single point of failure due to use of an optional bypass switch.

Typical Deployment for a Small Hosting Company with Two Links

Notes:

• You may have router/switch in your deployment. In that case, you will directly connect the two appliance feeds to a router/switch.
• The appliance is not a single point of failure due to use of bypass switches.

Typical Deployment for an Internet Data Center with Two Links Protected by Two Independent Devices in Active Active Configuration

Notes:

• In this configuration, the two appliances share states with each other through a proprietary connection/protocol.
• Traffic can be asymmetric.

Typical Deployment for a large Internet Data Center with 10 Gbps links Protected by Multiple Independent Devices in Asymmetric Load Balanced Configuration

Notes:

• In this configuration, the appliances together protect the total traffic which is distributed and aggregated by external appliances.

IntruGuard appliances are supplied with optional bypass switches which ensure that there is no single point of failure under critical failure of the device.
