Using the NSM monitoring tools, you learn of the attack and locate the cause of the
1.
event. Using NSM modules such as the Realtime Monitor and Log Viewer, you
determine the exact attack that penetrated the device. From the Report Manager,
you also determine what rule in the security policy was ineffective in blocking the
attack.
You update the modeled device configuration, editing the configuration to detect and
2.
prevent the attack from entering your network again.
Before updating the running configuration, you review the modeled device
3.
configuration. Using a delta configuration summary, compare the modeled
configuration with the running configuration on the device to confirm the differences.
Fine-tune the modeled configuration, if needed.
When you are confident that the modeled configuration is valid, update the device.
4.
NSM updates the running configuration with only the new changes (delta). During
the update, you track the update progress using Job Manager in real time and observe
the transfer of the configuration from NSM to the device.
If the update is unsuccessful, use the information in the Job information dialog box to
correct the problems in the modeled configuration.
After updating, run a second delta configuration summary to identify any remaining
5.
differences between the modeled configuration and the running configuration on the
device. When the delta configuration summary reveals no differences between the
new configuration and the old configuration on the device, you have successfully
updated the running configuration.

You can view the progress of communication to and from your devices in the Job Manager,
that is located in the Administer panel. NSM sends commands to managed devices at
your request, typically to import, update or reboot devices, and view configuration and
delta configuration summaries. When you send a command to a device or group of
devices, NSM creates a job for that command and displays information about that job
in the Job Manager module.
Job Manager tracks the progress of the command as it travels to the device and back to
the management system. Each job contains:
