Once you have configured a Sensor with a name, you will be unable to change the name without reconfiguring the Sensor. Trellix recommends that you establish an easily recognizable naming scheme prior to deployment, which indicates your Sensors' locations or purposes, and ensures unique names. The Manager will not recognize two Sensors with identical names.
Sensors are represented by name in several areas of Trellix Intrusion Prevention System and its alert data: the Manager Configuration page, alert and configuration reports, and the Attack Log. So, it is a good idea to make your Sensor naming scheme clear enough to interpret by anyone who might need to work with the system or its data.
For example, if you were deploying Sensors at a university, you might name your Sensors according to their location on the campus:Sensor1_WeanHall, Sensor2_WeanHall, Sensor1_StudentUnion, Sensor1_Library, and so on.
Note
The Sensor name is a case-sensitive alphanumeric character string up to 25 characters. The string can include hyphens, underscores, and periods, and must begin with a letter.
