Do you think that this would work with a distributed Site Protector
architecture?

Distributed like thisSensor Controller on Machine A, two event
Collectors on Machines B and C and Site Database/JDBC Interface on
Machine D

Y
You can set up sensors to report to more than one management backend.
You can set up your network to abstract the transport so that your
management back-end always looks the same to the sensors, and vice
versa.
Tunneling/VPN'ing, for instance, with endpoints at the common (non-ISP
specific) points will achieve this.

Subject: Failover of IDS console

Hi all,

Lets say I have the configuration like this.

Company A has  3 branches and each branch has 1 Network sensor and 1
server sensor. All the branches' IDSs are connected to the RS Consoel
which situated at the HQ. The branch connect to HQ through internet.
Thus, IDS management are done thru the HQ using the internet line.

The internet line from the HQ to internet is not reliable and always
down. Thus, the IDS can't send the event to the console. So, company A
plan to get another ISP for the failover. 

The question is, can this idea work? Coz the IDS reporting to the
console based on the Console IP address. So, if the first ISP is down,
switching to 2nd ISP would not provide failover because the IP address
assigned by two ISP is difference.

Any idea guyz?

Thanks
