Restoring local mode

Prev Next

You can restore MVX local mode on an appliance using either the managing Central Management Web UI or the integrated appliance CLI. After integrated mode is restored, the appliance uses its on-board MVX analysis engine for all submissions.

Prerequisites

  • Admin access

Restoring MVX local mode using the Web UI

Use the Appliances > Sensors page to restore MVX local mode on an appliance.

To restore local mode on a sensor-enabled appliance:
  1. Log into the Central Management Web UI.

  2. Select Appliances > Sensors.

  3. In the Action column, click Select and then click Disable Cluster Mode.

  4. When prompted, click OK to confirm the mode change.

To restore local mode on a hybrid-enabled appliance:
  1. Log into the Central Management Web UI.

  2. Select Appliances > Sensors.

  3. In the Action column, click Select, and then click Disable Hybrid Mode.

  4. When prompted, click OK to confirm the mode change.

After you restore local mode, the appliance submits all objects to its on-board MVX analysis engine. The value of the Cluster Enrollment column becomes Local.

Note

You cannot currently use the Central Management Web UI to disable hybrid mode on a managed Network Security or File Protect appliance. Use the procedure in Restoring local mode using the CLI instead.

Restoring local mode using the CLI

Use the commands in this section to restore MVX local mode on an appliance.

To restore local mode:
  1. Log in to the integrated appliance CLI.

  2. Go to CLI configuration mode:

    hostname > enable
    hostname # configure terminal
  3. Enable local mode:

    hostname (config) # mvx mode local
  4. Verify your change:

    hostname (config) # show mvx status

Example

The following example restores local mode on the nx-3 appliance.

nx-3 (config) # mvx mode local
nx-3 (config) # show mvx status
