Sensor resource cleanup in the Manager

Prev Next

You can terminate the Trellix vIPS Sensor from the Manager. To delete the Sensor, go to Devices → <Admin Domain Name> → Global → Device Manager. Go to Sensors tab and select the required Sensor from the list. Click GUID-A2D55869-EABF-420A-BC8D-C64FF3D70EAB-low.jpg to delete the Sensor. A Successful/Failed Deletion(s) dialog box displays the status.

To automatically remove the terminated Sensors from the Manager, configure the local controller with an active IAM role. If controller is not configured with a cloud account, the obsolete Sensors which are terminated on cloud, need to be removed manually on a period basis.
