Component
Description
Agent manager
The Agent Manager provides the ability to configure, update, and
manage the appliance in the SiteProtector system. It also
manages the alternate update server, called the SiteProtector X-
Press Update Server.
As the appliance generates security data, the Agent manager
facilitates the data processing required for you to view the data in
the SiteProtector Console.
The appliance sends a heartbeat signal through the management
Interface to its Agent Manager on a routine basis to indicate that it
is active and to receive policies and updates from the Agent
Manager. The time between heartbeats is user-defined option.
Application Server
The Application Server provides remote access functionality for
the SiteProtector Console.
SiteProtector Database
The SiteProtector Database stores the following information:
•
security data generated by your IBM ISS products
•
statistics for security events
•
the update status of all products
•
the SiteProtector system user accounts and permissions
Update Server
A server on your internal network that contains the X-Press
Updates (XPUs) for only your licensed IBM ISS products.
