Plan the Installation

Decide how you are going to configure the Cisco Web Security Appliance within your network.
The Cisco Web Security Appliance is typically installed as an additional layer in the network between clients and the Internet. Depending on how you deploy the appliance, you may or may not need a Layer 4 (L4) switch or a WCCP router to direct client traffic to the appliance.
Deployment options include:
Transparent Proxy – Web proxy with an L4 switch
Transparent Proxy – Web proxy with a WCCP router
Explicit Forward Proxy – Connection to a network switch
L4 Traffic Monitor – Ethernet tap (simplex or duplex)
Simplex Mode: Port T1 receives all outgoing traffic, and port T2 receives all incoming traffic.
Duplex Mode: Port T1 receives all incoming and outgoing traffic.
Note See “Connect to the Appliance” section on page 7 for more information about individual ports on the
appliance.
Plan the Installation
Note To monitor true client IP addresses, the L4 traffic monitor should always be configured inside the
firewall and before NAT (Network Address Translation).
If your installation includes multiple Cisco Web Security Appliances (S-Series) or Cisco Email Security Appliances (C-Series), you may want to also use a Cisco Content Security Management Appliance (M-Series) to manage them, as show in the following network diagram:

Temporarily Change Your IP Address for Remote Access

Temporarily Change Your IP Address for Remote Access
To remotely configure the appliance using the network connection, you must temporarily change the IP address of your computer.
Note Make a note of your current IP configuration settings as you will need to revert to these settings after
you finish the configuration.
Alternatively, you can use the serial console to configure the appliance, without changing the IP address. If you use the serial console, see Connect to the Appliance, page 7.

Temporarily Change Your IP Address on Windows

Note The exact steps depend on the version of your operating system.
Procedure
Step 1 Connect your laptop to the primary Management Port (labeled M1) using the cross over or Ethernet cable
included in the system box. The Cisco Web Security Appliance uses the M1 Management port only. See
“Plan the Installation” section on page 5.
Step 2 Go to the Start menu and choose Control Panel.
Step 3 Double-click Network and Sharing Center.
