    • Set Location.

    You can view the information from both the element manager and the IxProbe CLI under device info.

  3. Select Add on the Trusted Subnets tile to add an additional Trusted subnet.
  4. Select the trash can next to a subnet to remove that subnet from the list.
  5. Select Add on the Trap Destination List tile to add new IPs to the list.
  6. Select the trash can next to an IP to remove that IP from the list.
  7. Select Edit on the Hawkeye Server tile to change the Hawkeye Server IP address. If the IxProbe uses Inline Management Mode/Inline Adoption Mode (IMM/IAM), ensure the IP is part of a trusted subnet.

This tab is updated as changes are made through either Bulk Actions or from this page. Changes to the configuration by using the IxProbe CLI or standalone web page are not automatically populated to this tab. To get the latest full running configuration from the IxProbe, select Sync.
