Gijo,
 
The IPS devices can be run in IDS only mode.   (Included in email is a picture 
of the G100 set in a passive monitor mode).
 
 
You gain the feature of having it there should you need it, while keeping the 
same great protection.
 
IPS boxes run in IDS mode still offer the ablity to use both connections for 
monitor mode.  I know at least in a few cases you needed to use Cross over 
cables to have that work properly, but think i heard that was now corrected.
 
So if you purchase a G100.. you get 2 passive monitor ports .. or 1 active 
monitor.
 
Regards,
 
Michael

Dear All,

I have noticed in the ISS website that provintia 201A IDS devices are on end
of sale. Can we get the boxes upgraded to the new one or we have to buy
again? What happens in envrnments were we dont want IPS and we want only
IDS. I am working for a bank and I feel I cannot afford any false positives
blocking any of my customers.

Any views on this will be very helpful. Appreciate responces on best
practices anyone using ISS in banking envornment.


Thanks and regards

Gijo Thomas.
