- Arc
  - Introduction
    An overview of Arc.
  - Requirements
    The machine and network requirements necessary to use Arc.
  - Preparation
    Information on how to import Arc packages, and install a license.
  - Configuration
    Details on how to configure Arc.
    - Configure an Arc sensor in Guardian
      You can configure an individual Arc sensor in Guardian directly from the Sensors details page for the related sensor.
    - Configure an Arc sensor in Vantage
      You can configure an individual Arc sensor in Vantage directly from the Sensors details page for the related sensor.
    - Local UI
      The default method to manage Arc is through the parent system software. However, it is also possible to manage Arc through a local UI.
      - Execution info(rmation)
        The Execution Info section displays the status of Arc's sensors, execution modes, and network connectivity. It also provides details about service status, version, and execution controls.
      - Required dependencies
        The Required dependencies section shows a list of all the required dependencies for the selected sensor, and the installation status for each dependency.
      - Offline archives
        The Offline archives section gives you access to the archives that have been created in Offline mode for the current session.
      - Discovery and Smart Polling
        The Discovery and Smart Polling section shows up-to-date execution details and status for Discovery and Smart Polling operations.
      - Settings
        The Settings page gives you access to the Upstream connection, Execution options, and Traffic monitoring pages.
        Upstream connection
        The Upstream connection page lets you configure and verify the connection between the Arc sensor and the Guardian/Vantage endpoint. Key parameters include the endpoint internet protocol (IP) address and authentication token.
        Execution options
        The Execution options page lets you configure how Arc collects data, manage detection features, and control network discovery and polling behaviors. You can also set logging levels and adjust specific execution parameters to optimize performance.
        Traffic monitoring
        The Traffic monitoring page lets you track network traffic using either intermittent or continuous modes. You can configure monitoring parameters, manage resource usage, and choose specific network interfaces to optimize performance.
      - Open the local UI
        The local UI lets you manage Arc without the use of a parent system software. It gives you access to the Status page to monitor the status of Arc executions, and the Configuration page to configure Arc executions. You can double-click the executable file to open it, or use the command-line interface (CLI),

Upstream connection

The Upstream connection page lets you configure and verify the connection between the Arc sensor and the Guardian/Vantage endpoint. Key parameters include the endpoint internet protocol (IP) address and authentication token.

Sensor id

This is the identifier (ID) of the Arc sensor that is used to connect to the upstream sensor.

Endpoint

This shows the internet protocol (IP) address of the upstream machine that the sensor is connected to.

CAUTION:

After the endpoint is initially set to a Guardian under the Central Management Console (CMC), it is not possible to update it to another Guardian under the same CMC. You need to reconfigure the endpoint manually. This is best done with the help of Nozomi Networks Customer Support.

Token

The token Arc needs to authenticate to the Guardian/Vantage endpoint.

Check connection

This button checks if the connection parameters are correct.
