Setting up a Websense V-Series appliance involves the following tasks. This topic covers Step 4:
1.
Set up the appliance hardware
2.
Perform initial command-line configuration
3.
Configure the appliance
*
Network interface configuration
*
Routing configuration
*
Alerting
*
Configuring Web Security components
4.
Install off-appliance or optional components
After the appliance has been configured, install the off-appliance components you want. Follow the links for your deployment in Installation steps for appliance-based solutions
 
* 
Note 
Before deploying off-appliance components, be sure to use Appliance Manager to configure the appliance interfaces that you plan to use [C, P1, P2 (optional), E1, and E2 (optional)].
At sites using Email Security Gateway, E1 is used by default to connect to SQL Server for reporting. If E1 does not have a valid IP address or does not have DNS access, then Email Security Gateway cannot resolve the SQL Server hostname and cannot create a connection with SQL Server. In that situation, off-box installation of the management console is blocked. [On a V5000 G2, substitute P1 for E1.]
 
* 
Note 
If Policy Broker runs on an appliance, only on-appliance instances of Policy Server can communicate with Policy Broker. In this case, Policy Server cannot be installed off-appliance. If Policy Broker is installed off-appliance, however, both on-appliance and off-appliance instances of Policy Server can communicate with it.
 
* 
Note 
Additional instances of Web security filtering components may be installed on machines in your network to provide additional functions or distribute processing load. For example, you can install additional Websense Network Agent instances on machines in your network.
Creating a TRITON management server
 
* 
Important 
The appliance must be set up and configured before you create a TRITON management server. If you have not done so already, complete the following procedures before creating a TRITON management server:
*
Set up the appliance hardware
*
Perform initial command-line configuration
*
Configure the appliance
The machine on which TRITON Unified Security Center is installed is referred to as the TRITON management server. To install TRITON management server, follow the link in Installation steps for appliance-based solutions.
