health alerts for the Network
IPS appliance.
System tools
Use System Tools to restart and shut
down the Network
IPS appliance
and to test the connection between the appliance and SiteProtector.
Configuring date and time
Use the Date/Time Configuration page
on the Network
IPS appliance
to fine-tune the data or to ensure high availability (HA) pairs have
the same information.
Configuring SNMP

the amount and type of traffic on a network. The appliance sends the
flow data to an external event collector.

on the Network
IPS appliance to send event data to a security incident
event manager (SIEM) by using the log event extended format (LEEF).
