Profile Management

Prev Next

Use Capture Orchestration profiles by choosing Sensors > Capture > Profiles to configure settings that you can share across multiple sensors.

Note: You can apply a profile to multiple sensors, but some settings (such as hostname) cannot be shared and must be set directly on the sensor.

Profiles Page

The page displays a table of profiles, including the number of sensors that use each profile and the last-edited time.
