Managing Nodes
A node is a networked ArcSight product that can be centrally managed through ArcSight Management Center. Each node is associated with a single networked host which has been assigned a hostname, an IP address, or both.
Node types can include any of the following ArcSight products:
-
Connector Appliances or Software Connector Appliances
-
Logger Appliances or Software Loggers
-
Containers, connectors, or Collectors
-
Other ArcSight Management Centers, either software or Connector Hosting Appliances
- Transformation Hub
A single host, such as a single deployed Transformation Hub, can comprise multiple nodes for management purposes. In addition, a node can be in a parent or child relationship with other nodes.
You can perform any of the following node management tasks:
-
View managed nodes by location, by host, or by node type.
-
Add, view, edit, and delete locations for hosts.
-
Add nodes from a host, import hosts from a CSV file, view and delete hosts, view all hosts in a location, update software on hosts, move hosts to different locations, and scan hosts for new connectors or containers.
For more information on adding hosts, see About Adding a Host.
