Connecting TippingPoint SMS 6.1.0 or later to Network Security

Procedure

1. Generate an API key to access the SMS Web API.
   1. From your SMS interface, select Admin → Authentication and Authorization → Roles and verify that the role for the selected user account has the Access SMS Web Services capability enabled.
   2. Select Admin → Authentication and Authorization → Users.
   3. Select the user account, and click Edit.
   4. Click Regenerate API Key to get a new API key.
      You can reset the API key for any reason. But when you do, from this point, the previous API key can no longer be used.

   1. In the TippingPoint SMS client, go to Admin → Server Properties and click the Network tab.
   2. In the HTTP Proxy section, select Proxy Internet Connections.
   3. Enter the IP address or hostname of the proxy server in the Proxy Server Host field.
   4. Enter the port of the proxy server in the Proxy Server Port field.
   5. If the proxy server requires authentication, select Use Proxy Authentication and provide the user name and password in the Username and Password fields, respectively.
   6. Click Apply.
3. Configure a TippingPoint SMS connector in Trend Vision One.
   • For customers that have updated to the Foundation Services release, go to Service Management → Product Instance.
   • For customers using the legacy Trend Vision One console, go to Point Product Connection → Product Connector.
   Alternatively:
   1. In the Trend Vision One console, go to Network Security → Network Inventory.
   2. Select the Continue with TippingPoint deployment option.
   3. Click Connect a TippingPoint SMS.
