17.4 Configuring Sentinel Link
In a Sentinel Link Solution setup, the Sentinel system that forwards the events is called the sender
and the Sentinel system that receives the events is called the receiver. You can simultaneously link
multiple Sentinel systems to a single receiver system.
To configure a Sentinel link, you need to configure at least two systems: the sender machine and the
receiver machine. For further details on configuring Sentinel Link, read the following:
"Configuring Sentinel Systems for Receiving Events" on page 394
"Configuring Sentinel Systems for Sending Events" on page 411
17.5 Configuring Sentinel Systems for Receiving
Events
On the receiver system, you must configure the Sentinel
from the data received by the Sentinel Link Connector. You must also configure the Sentinel Link
Connector and configure a Sentinel Link Event Source Server to receive the event data from the
sender systems.
