Trusted Systems
Initially, OpUtils will list all the discoverd systems. The
Administrator has to verify and mark all the valid network systems/devices
as Trusted. The systems/devices that are marked as trusted will
not be shown as rogue again.
Rogue Systems
When an unauthorised rogue system is found in the network,
the Administrator can mark them as a Rogue Device and take appropriate
action.
Allow Guest Access
There might be situations where there is a need to allow certain
systems to access the network resources for a temporary period.
For example, a personnel from a different branch visits your
office for a month or a student enrolled for a semester need
to be given access till he/she completes the semester. In such
cases, the administrators can specify a period till which a
particular system need to be considered as valid. Devices that
are allowed guest access can any time be moved into allowed
or rogue list. The administrators will also be notified when
the allowed period expires.
Block Unauthorised Access
The administrators are notified about unauthorised access as
soon as it is detected. When combined with Switch Port Mapping,
it also provides the details of the switch and port through
which the rogue system is accessing the network. The switch
port can be blocked or unblocked from within OpUtils. This enables
them to act quickly in blocking the access.
Instant Alert Notification
OpUtils notifies the administrators about the detection of
any unauthorised network access instantly. The notification
can be through email and or by playing a sound. Email notifications
can be effected to multiple persons. For more details on rogue detection, refer to the Rogue
Detection Tool topic in the online help. Refer to Rogue
Detection Knowledge Base for troubleshooting tips. |
