Re: Network Devices Node Ip and node name disapeared
When did this start? Is your console and appliance the same version? Internally we do use unique IDs for nodes that look like that, but they shouldn't be appearing in your console.

Nicole; you are correct! I just tested this and it seemed to work. Please feel free to un-mark my answer as correct, thanks for the info!

Be aware when you do this that when you search it in nDepth it will all be "typed" with that connector, so you just need to know what you're looking for. I usually use one that I DON'T already have so...

If you use the LEM "Audit - Internal Audit Report" you should be able to see which rules have been changed and by which user. That doesn't tell you WHAT was changed, or which rules are currently...

There currently isn't - the best thing you could do is forward your devices to an intermediary syslog server then forward that to LEM and your secondary host.

View ArticleRe: Success Stories of gaining operational value from LEM
One of our challenges is that we have limited VPN access licenses. Knowing who and when gaining works for us on two levels. 1. Find out who is on and for how long 2. Our auditors love it!!!

Thanks for the suggestions. Tried both IP address and FQDN but still got the same results. Any other ideas?
View ArticleRe: Prevent mass file operations?
What it's going to do is try to match the FQDN/hostname/IP to a system in Manage>Nodes. You might cross reference the agent list there to make sure things look right.
View ArticleRe: Prevent mass file operations?
Understood. I checked that earlier when testing it out. However, I went back and tested the rule again with both the IP address and FQDN of the domain controller as it's displayed in the list of nodes....

We just don't see a ton of people using the raw log support, so it's not something we've focused on. There's nothing in the near term that will change this explicitly (either by documentation, by...

A better solution would let you input those things and be more like the "generic" connectors we've discussed on and off (that's kind of what this is anyway). But again... no promises I agree this would...
