Does Deep Discovery Inspector installation disrupt network traffic?
When deployed out-of-band Deep Discovery Inspector does not disrupt network traffic. When deployed out-of-band, Deep Discovery Inspector installation should not disrupt the network traffic because the appliance connects to the mirror port of the switch and not directly to the network.
When deployed inline, Deep Discovery Inspector can disrupt network traffic.
After a fresh installation, Deep Discovery Inspector is unable to obtain a dynamic IP address. What do I do?
Restart the appliance and verify that it is able to obtain an IP address. Next, connect an Ethernet cable from the management port to a known good Ethernet connection and restart the appliance.
