Managing configuration for each device

Prev Next

The Devices tab in the Devices page represents the physical Sensor installed in your network. Each device is a uniquely named (by you) instance of a Sensor. All actions available in the <Device_Name> page customize the settings for a specific Sensor.

After properly installing and initializing a Sensor, and adding the Sensor to the Manager, it appears in the Device drop-down list, where it was added, and inherits all of the configured device settings. After adding a device, the device can be specifically configured to meet user requirements by selecting the uniquely named device node.

For more information on interfaces and subinterfaces, see Trellix Intrusion Prevention System Product Guide.

Note

Many device configurations performed within the Devices page do not immediately update to the devices. You must update the configuration of all devices or any specific device to push the configuration information from the Manager to your device(s).

The <Device_Name> page for a Sensor in general contains Summary, Setup, Maintenance, Troubleshooting, Deploy Pending Changes, and IPS Interfaces pages.
