1
00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:12,930
Your forte gate can operate in two operating modes.

2
00:00:13,010 --> 00:00:20,030
The first one is the Nat mode the network address translation mode and the second one is the transparent

3
00:00:20,030 --> 00:00:20,870
mode.

4
00:00:20,930 --> 00:00:22,550
What are the differences.

5
00:00:22,550 --> 00:00:31,040
Well if you remember your routing and switching lessons it would become simple in that mode your 48

6
00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:34,350
acts as an oversight layer treat device.

7
00:00:34,430 --> 00:00:36,610
It is actually a router.

8
00:00:36,770 --> 00:00:44,270
Each interface has its own IP address and its own broadcast domain in a transparent mode.

9
00:00:44,270 --> 00:00:54,590
Your 48 acts as a switch interfaces doesn't have any IP addresses and frames are being forwarded according

10
00:00:54,590 --> 00:00:58,950
to the MAC address of their destination.

11
00:00:59,210 --> 00:01:05,570
Your 48 splits the network into multiple collusion domain.

12
00:01:05,570 --> 00:01:16,820
Now let's see how we can change our 48 from and not operating mode to a transparent operating mode.

13
00:01:16,910 --> 00:01:18,640
We'll use the command line

14
00:01:21,230 --> 00:01:32,690
config sys settings and if we will use this show full command we will see that currently our operational

15
00:01:32,690 --> 00:01:43,640
mode is not if we wish to change it we'll use the set up mode and we can switch between that and transparent

16
00:01:43,700 --> 00:01:44,530
mode.

17
00:01:44,690 --> 00:01:52,430
We will use a new virtual machine that we will configure in transparent mode to learn more of its transparent

18
00:01:52,460 --> 00:01:54,510
mode capabilities.

19
00:01:54,530 --> 00:01:56,230
When do we use transparent mode.

20
00:01:56,270 --> 00:01:58,110
And when do we use in that mode.

21
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:02,320
Well most of the times you will use these in that mode.

22
00:02:02,330 --> 00:02:10,760
Your 48 will act as an always silent treat device where each interface has its own IP address and each

23
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:16,640
packet is being sent according to the routing table.

24
00:02:16,640 --> 00:02:23,900
Now let's look at the routing table we'll use the get router info routing table all

25
00:02:35,050 --> 00:02:43,660
and we can see that we have one static round which will round any packet that doesn't have a route in

26
00:02:43,660 --> 00:02:48,590
the routing table to the when one interface.

27
00:02:48,610 --> 00:02:59,540
We also have two other connected networks that are connected directly to our 40 gate so that happens

28
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:01,030
on in that mode.

29
00:03:01,130 --> 00:03:04,970
But what happens on a transparent mode on a transparent node.

30
00:03:05,010 --> 00:03:12,370
Your 40 gate delivers the frames according to the MAC address table.

31
00:03:12,890 --> 00:03:15,350
When we use a transparent mode.

32
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:27,470
We use it to scan the traffic between different segments of our network without any interference to

33
00:03:27,470 --> 00:03:34,560
the current routing that is already being happening on the network.

34
00:03:34,610 --> 00:03:38,120
That is one of the reasons that we use transparent mode.

35
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:48,200
There are cases where we split our network into different segments and between each segment we deploy

36
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:58,610
a 40 gate 48 will still scan the traffic will still use security profiles will still use its next generation

37
00:03:58,610 --> 00:04:07,910
firewall capabilities such as IP address and application control to block or to allow the traffic but

38
00:04:08,090 --> 00:04:16,200
it will not interfere with the organization routing that is already being used there.
