Security Groups¶
The Admin > Alarm Monitor > Security Groups page allows users create and manage Security Groups for Flow Analytics algorithms.
A Security Group can be configured for one or more FA algorithms. When Exporters are assigned to it, those FA algorithms will automatically be enabled for them.
Plixer Scrutinizer ships with four predefined Security Groups that have been configured with the recommended FA algorithms for the corresponding device types.
Adding a new Security Group
To create a new Security Group, click the + button. In the tray, enter a unique (recommended) name for the Security Group, and then click the Save button.
Adding Exporters to a Security Group
To add one or more Exporters to an existing Security Group, follow these steps:
Click the Security Group name to open the configuration tray.
Expand the Active Exporters section and click the Add button.
Note
Exporters can also be removed from the group using the Delete icon.
In the secondary tray, use the checkboxes to select Exporters.
After selecting all Exporters to be added, click the Add button.
Once added, the selected Exporters will have the Security Group’s FA algorithms enabled for them.
Enabling FA algorithms for a Security Group
To add one or more FA algorithms to an existing Security Group, follow these steps:
Click the Security Group name to open the configuration tray.
Expand the Algorithms section and click the Add button.
Note
Algorithms can also be disabled for the group using the Delete icon.
In the secondary tray, use the checkboxes to select algorithms.
After selecting all algorithms to be added, click the Add button.
Once added, the selected FA algorithms will be enabled for all Exporters assigned to the Security Group.
Batch actions
When selecting one or more Security Groups using their checkboxes, the following batch actions can be performed:
Add one or more Exporters to all selected Security Groups
Enable one or more FA algorithms for all Selected Security Groups
Delete all selected Security Groups
