If you intent to send data from this device to the ELM, you must identify the ELM IP address and sync the device with the ELM.

  1. From the Trellix ESM dashboard, click menu.png and select More Settings.

  2. On the system navigation tree, select the device and click Settings.png.

  3. Assign an IP or sync devices.

    • Click <device> Configuration, click ELM IP, and enter a new IP.

    • If the device or the ELM has been replaced, click Sync Device. Syncing the ELM re-establishes the SSH communication between the two devices, using the key for the new device with the previous settings.
