Description of Operation
1. Unencrypted text flows from the corporate server through a network switch to the ATM and teller machines.
2. The network switch is configured to mirror all traffic on the associated receive ports (2/g28 & 2/g5) to the Transacq server
through the monitoring NIC.
3. The Winpcap driver places the monitoring port into promiscious mode, which enables it to receive traffic not addressed to
the Transacq server. The libpcap driver is required on a Linux-based Transacq server.
4. The Transacq service receives all incoming traffic on this NIC, filters it based on the Transacq.xml configuration file, and
retransmits the resulting traffic to the exacqVision server on the filtered-traffic NIC.
5. The exacqVision server receives serial text as configured on the serial port screen. A serial profile must be created to filter
out undesired incoming text.
