Connect Bivio 2000 Ports

Of the back ports, you use the s0.e0 Ethernet port (8) to receive replicated data packets from a network switch. In passive mode, you do not use any other back ports; in active mode, you also use the s0.e1 port to forward processed packets to the internet

These diagrams show the front and back of a Bivio 2000 appliance.
