Define your network topography to help your Network Sensors better detect threats and monitor critical resources.

Network Resources provides a set of lists you can use to define your network topography. Using these lists allows your connected appliances to better identify the source of threats and recognize which critical assets in your environment require additional monitoring. You can add network resources to each list, edit the lists, import files to configure each list, or export the lists to edit them.
Turn on Enable central management of Deep Discovery Inspector resources to sync with connected Deep Discovery Inspector appliances version 6.7 or later.
