1 | Module Overview


Module Overview

The Endpoint Agent Console Module is a Trellix HX Innovation Architecture (IA) module that enables the end user to access Endpoint Agent features using a local graphical user interface. This module provides insights into the quarantined items, detected malware, server scheduled scan summary events, and agent version information.

The data displayed in the Endpoint Agent Console module is collected from the endpoint agent locally and displayed. There is no server communication involved in displaying the data.

Supported Platforms

This release of Endpoint Agent Console 1.1.3 is supported on Endpoint Security 5.0.0 or later with xAgent 32 or later running on Windows 7 and above only. Mac OS and Linux platforms are not supported as of this release. The Endpoint Agent Console module requires Microsoft .NET 4.0 and above on the endpoint to function.

       
  • Installing the Endpoint Agent Console module on Endpoint Security 4.9.x with xAgent 31 or lower is not a supported scenario.
  •    
  • Features such as quarantine and restore require Malware Protection feature to be enabled on the endpoint.
  •    
  • You may see two FireEye system tray icons at times. This is normal and does not cause any system performance overhead.
  •    
  • Malware Protection service is restarted when Endpoint Agent Console is uninstalled. This is necessary to ensure clean uninstallation of the module.
  •    
  • Endpoint Agent Console requires Microsoft .NET 4.0 and above to run and display the user interface. Without this version of .NET, installation will succeed, but the Endpoint Agent Console system tray icon won’t appear.

Refer to Endpoint Agent Console Release Notes for more details on known issues.

quarantined item is deleted.

The Restore action restores a quarantined file to its original location and allows the file to be accessed by the end user. Be careful not to restore a file that is malware. After a quarantined file is restored, an event is sent to the HX server for auditing purposes. The file is restored only on endpoint (local system) and does not affect other endpoints managed by the HX server. After a quarantined file is restored, it is added to a restored files list, so that it is not detected again.

You can view restored files by clicking the View Restored Files link.

Restored Files

Restored Files displays all the files restored from a quarantine by endpoint (local system) users.

   

Screenshot of the Trellix Endpoint Security (HX) Restored Files window showing the application window with a left navigation bar (Event Log, Quarantine, About), a top bar titled Restored Files, a table listing Original File Path, Malware Name, Restored By, Date Restored, and a Remove button.

When a quarantined file is restored, the file details, such as original file path and file hashes are maintained in the restored files list for these files to be no longer detected as malware. To remove the entries from the Restored Files list, click Remove, thereby enabling the agent to again detect the files as malicious.

When a restored file is removed from the list, it does not cause the restored file to be detected immediately. It is detected when the file is accessed or modified subsequently either through real time scanning or on-demand scan.

The file is restored only on endpoint (local system) and does not affect other endpoints managed by the HX server. Files in the Restored Files list can only be deleted using the Endpoint Agent Console and cannot be overridden by the HX server. So, be careful when enabling users to restore files on the endpoint.

You can find the log file for the server module?under /var/log/supervisor/agent-console-server_<version>_<unique_id>.log

Generating Log Files

To launch the Endpoint Agent Console module with logging enabled, the module must run with either -l or -log as a command line parameter and hence must be followed by log level. If no log level is passed in, the log level is set to the lowest level (error) by default. The module generates its own log file called xagtui.log and is located under %TEMP% (Usually this is C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Temp)

The following are the log levels available to the Endpoint Agent Console module:

       
  • Error: Used for program errors. If this log level is specified at the command line, only Error level messages are logged.
  •    
  • Info: Used for informational messages. If this log level is specified at the command line, only Error and Info level messages are logged.

Troubleshooting

This section provides helpful solutions/steps for problems occurred in the module.

How to Identify if the Module is running on all the deployed systems

Since there is a dependency on .NET 4.0 on Windows platform, there a way to know if the module is running on all the deployed systems.

The Endpoint Agent Console plug-in reports the availability of .NET dependency in the agentinfo report. This can be verified using HX API for the given host.

Error Messages Displayed when the Module is in the foreground

Error messages are displayed when a dependent service, such as Malware Protection or Remediation Service is temporarily unavailable (content updates, and so on). During this time the Endpoint Agent Console module cannot fetch data and therefore displays error messages.

Retry the operation after some time (few seconds) to work as expected.

Displaying Two FireEye icons Error

You will see two icons:

       
  • When there is a detection notification message.
  •    
  • When a scheduled scan is in progress and the administrator has enabled Pause/Cancel options.

This is normal and does not lead to any functional issues.

Displaying Error Message when the module is launched from Start Menu

Administrators can disable the Endpoint Agent Console module on host/hostsets. When disabled, Endpoint Agent Console does not automatically launch during user logon sessions. When you attempt to launch it using the Windows Start menu shortcut, it displays an error message.
