Platform-Specific Dashboard Details
This section provides details about how the various Enterasys IPS statistics available in the
Dashboard are gathered. In addition, differences between supported operating systems in how
this data is collected are detailed.
Unix and Linux Systems
Unix and Linux Enterasys IPS systems use dragonctl, system calls and platform-specific shell
scripts to provide system status information to Dashboard. The dragonctl process reports system
statistics, while the host sensor process reports sensor statistics.
System Status
The dragonctl process generates heartbeat events that contain system status. Dashboard uses these
heartbeat events to provide the following information:
•
System CPU used (percentage)
•
Total disk space available on the Dragon partition
•
Total disk space used on the Dragon partition
•
Total memory available on the system, in megabytes (MB)
•
Total memory used on the system, in megabytes (MB)
•
System uptime
•
Event rate from the system
Host Sensor Status
On Unix platforms, the Host Sensor is responsible for generating heartbeat events that contain
Host Sensor status information. Dashboard uses these heartbeat events to report the following
information:
•
Host Sensor uptime
•
Host Sensor event rate
•
Host Sensor CPU usage
•
Host Sensor memory used
•
Total system memory
Windows Systems
On Windows systems, the Host Sensor process generates heartbeat events that provide both
system and Host Sensor status information to the System Dashboard.
Note:
Unix CPU Used values are averaged from snapshot measurements and may differ from the
output of running the top command.
Note:
On Windows systems, if the Host Sensor (DragonSquire Services) is not running, both
System Status and Host Sensor Status will be unavailable in the System Dashboard. This is
because the Host Sensor generates both sets of data for Windows systems.
