Content AUP Repository
ArcSight continuously develops new connector event categorization mappings, often called content. This content is packaged in ArcSight Update Packs (AUP) files. All existing content is included with major product releases, but it is possible to stay completely current by receiving up-to-date, regular content updates through ArcSight announcements and the Customer Support site. The AUP files are located under Content Subscription Downloads.
The ArcSight Content AUP feature enables you to apply an AUP file to applicable connector destinations that you are managing. Only the event categorization information can be applied to the connectors using this feature.
You can maintain a number of Content AUP files in the Content AUP repository. When an AUP file with a version number higher than the ones already in the repository is loaded, it is automatically pushed out to the connector destinations being managed. However, these connectors or connector destinations are skipped:
-
Connectors that are unavailable at the time of the AUP file push
-
Connectors whose current version does not fall in the range of versions that the Content AUP supports
-
The ESM destination on a connector
-
All destinations of a connector that have an ESM destination with the AUP Master flag set to Yes
Also, when a new connector is added, the highest number Content AUP is pushed automatically to its destinations.
