Add the 3D Sensor to the Defense Center
You are now ready to add the 3D Sensor to the sensors managed by the Defense Center.
After you complete this procedure, communications between the Defense Center and the
sensor are established and you can start managing the sensor from the Defense Center.
To add the sensor to the Defense Center
Log in to the Defense Center.
1.
Select Operations from the main menu bar, then click Sensors.
2.
3. On the Managed Sensors page, click New Sensors.
Provide the following information on the Sensor Administration page:
4.
Host—the IP address of the sensor.
Registration ID—Enter the registration ID if you defined one.
Registration Key—Enter the registration key.
Store Events and Packets Only on the Defense Center—Because you can
store data on only the Defense Center and not the sensor, this check box is
selected automatically. You cannot change this setting for Sourcefire Sensors on
Nokia.
Prohibit Packet Transfer to the Defense Center—You can prevent packet data
from being stored on the Defense Center by checking this check box.
Note
If you elect to prohibit sending packet data, the data is not retained. Packet data is
often important for forensic analysis.
Add to Group—Select the group, if any, you want the sensor to belong to.
Click the Add button.
5.
The sensor is added to the Defense Center. It can take up to two minutes for the
Defense Center to verify the sensor heartbeat and establish communication. You can
view the sensor status on the Defense Center Sensors page (Operations > Sensors).
