The Event Monitoring Tab In The Ida Interface - D-Link NetDefendOS User Manual

Figure 8.4. The General Tab in the IDA Interface
• The Event Monitoring tab
This tab consists of the following settings:
i. Monitor the local event log - When enabled, this IDA installation will monitor the server
on which it is installed for authentication events. Usually, this will be enabled since
normally the agent will monitor events on its own server.
ii. Remote monitoring - This specifies the IP address of other domain servers which are to
be monitored by this IDA installation. More than one IDP installation can monitor the
same domain server and more than one IDP installation can send the same
authentication event to NetDefendOS (duplicate received IDA events are recognized by
NetDefendOS and ignored).
If the Monitor the local event log option is not enabled and no other server IP addresses are
specified, the agent will send nothing back to NetDefendOS.
