Configure assets

Assets are network devices with IP addresses. You can create assets, change their tags, create asset groups, add asset sources, and assign an asset to an asset group. You can also manipulate the assets learned from vulnerability assessment vendors.

Verify that you have administrator rights or belong to an access group with device management permission.

  1. From the dashboard, click GUID-0177D71C-5A80-43D5-9629-5D396CF2895F-low.png, then select Asset ManagerAsset tab.

  2. To sort the list, click the column headings.

  3. To view asset details, click GUID-3A76AC0F-0C87-4467-B2DB-2495A8961776-low.png.

  4. Add an asset or asset filter group.

    • IP address or address/mask

    • Zone — Users must have permission for the zone to access assets in that zone.

    • Tags — Define asset attributes or filters.

      You can define a filter group based on the existence of one or more asset tags. The tags that are set do not define the exclusive set of tags an asset must have. The asset can have other tags and still be a member of the filter group.

    • Optional information — MAC address, globally unique identifier (GUID), operating system

  5. Import assets in a .CSV file. Each asset must be on a separate line.

    Format the asset data in the .csv file as follows: Hostname, IPAddress, Mask, ZoneName, TagCount, TagGroupName:TagName

    Add one TagGroupName:TagName for each tag you have (TagCount).

  6. Add assets as a database server to Trellix Enterprise Security Manager - Event Receiver.

  7. Delete selected groups or assets. If you select a group, the system asks if you want to delete the group and its assets or just the group. If you select only the group, the system reassigns assets to the Unassigned folder.
