Inline ports are only available when Deep Discovery Inspector has a inline (LAN Bypass) network interface card installed. For more details, see the Installation and Deployment
Guide, and the Inline (LAN Bypass) Network Interface Card Installation Guide.
When Deep Discovery Inspector is deployed as an inline
appliance and configured to decrypt TLS traffic, an event such as a system crash,
power outage,
or other unexpected condition may have an impact on the network accessibility. Deep Discovery Inspector uses traffic bypass to
cross-connect the two physical network ports. Traffic bypass helps to prevent Deep Discovery Inspector from being a single point of
failure in the network.
Deep Discovery Inspector can automatically enable
traffic bypass and you can manually enable traffic bypass.
-
Automatic traffic bypass
Deep Discovery Inspector performs self-health checks.
If an issue is detected, Deep Discovery Inspector
automatically enters traffic bypass mode to prevent the potential impact on the network.
When
this occurs, a global notification appears in the management console, and if configured,
Deep Discovery Inspector can send an email notification or
an SNMP trap.

Important
Issues such as power outage, system hang, or kernel panic can prevent Deep Discovery Inspector from sending email notifications
and SNMP traps. Trend Micro recommends that you
use tools like an NMS or system monitoring to identify these issues.

-
Manual traffic bypass
You can manually enable traffic bypass mode. To enable traffic bypass mode, go to
and toggle Enable traffic bypass.
You can also enable traffic bypass mode in the preconfiguration console. For more
details,
see the Installation and Deployment Guide.
