Preventive Maintenance

The following actions will help you maintain your sensor:

•

Create a service account.

You can use the service account when you need to work with the TAC to
troubleshoot your sensor.

See

Creating the Service Account, page 10-12

, for the procedure.

•

You should back up a good configuration. If your current configuration
becomes unusable, you can replace it with the backup version.

See

Creating and Using a Backup Configuration File, page 10-28

, for the

procedure.
