Procedure

  1. Select Global Agent Settings.
  2. Click the Network tab.
  3. Configure settings as required.
    Section
    Settings
    Preferred IP Addresses
    This setting is only available on dual-stack Apex One servers and is applied only by dual-stack Security Agents.
    • IPv4 only: Security Agents use their IPv4 address.
    • IPv4 first, then IPv6: Security Agents use their IPv4 address first. If the Security Agent cannot register using its IPv4 address, it uses its IPv6 address. If registration is unsuccessful using both IP addresses, the agent retries using the IP address priority for this selection.
    • IPv6 first, then IPv4: Security Agents use their IPv6 address first. If the Security Agent cannot register using its IPv6 address, it uses its IPv4 address. If registration is unsuccessful using both IP addresses, the Security Agent retries using the IP address priority for this selection.
    Virus/Malware Log Bandwidth Settings
    Enable the Security Agent to create a single virus/malware log entry for recurring detections of the same virus/malware within an hour: Consolidates virus log entries when detecting multiple infections from the same virus/malware over a short period of time
    The Security Agent may detect a single virus/malware multiple times, quickly filling the virus/malware logs and consuming network bandwidth when sending log information to the server. Enabling this feature helps reduce both the number of virus/malware log entries made and the amount of network bandwidth Security Agents consume when reporting malware log information to the server.
    Unreachable Network
    Configure the server polling settings:
    • If the Apex One server has both an IPv4 and IPv6 address, you can type an IPv4 address range and IPv6 prefix and length.
      For example:
      Type an IPv4 address range if the server is pure IPv4, or an IPv6 prefix and length if the server is pure IPv6.
      When any Security Agent IP address matches an IP address in the range, the Security Agent applies the heartbeat and server polling settings and the server treats the Security Agent as part of the unreachable network.
      Note
      Note
      Security Agents with an IPv4 address can connect to a pure IPv4 or dual-stack Apex One server.
      Security Agents with an IPv6 address can connect to a pure IPv6 or dual-stack Apex One server.
      Dual-stack Security Agents can connect to dual-stack, pure IPv4, or pure IPv6 Apex One server.
    • Agents poll the server for updated components and settings every __ minute(s): Specify the server polling frequency. Type a value between 1 and 129600 minutes.
      Tip
      Tip
      Trend Micro recommends that the server polling frequency be at least three times the heartbeat sending frequency.
    Configure the heartbeat settings:
    1. Select Allow agents to send heartbeat to the server.
    2. Select All agents or Only agents in the unreachable network.
    3. In Agents send heartbeat every __ minute(s), specify how often Security Agents send heartbeat. Type a value between 1 and 129600 minutes.
    4. In An agent is offline if there is no heartbeat after __ minute(s), specify how much time without a heartbeat must elapse before the Apex One server treats the Security Agent as offline. Type a value between 1 and 129600 minutes.
    Server Polling Interval
    Polling interval: XX minute(s): Configures the Security Agents to automatically attempt to connect with the Trend Vision One at a regular interval to receive updated settings or components and to report the Security Agent status
    Note
    Note
    The Trend Vision One server classifies all Security Agents that did not successfully poll the server at the specified interval as being Unreachable.
  4. Click Save.
