The edgewatch command line utility automatically configures the SystemEDGE agent to monitor processes, process groups, log files, and Windows event logs. After you specify the particular process, process group, log file or Windows event log and the associated arguments, the edgewatch utility issues an SNMP Set request to create the appropriate entry in the target agent's appropriate monitoring table. The edgewatch utility is located in the bin subdirectory of the agent installation.
Although the Windows event monitoring capability is provided on Windows only, you can configure it from any supported platform using the edgewatch utility.
Use the edgewatch utility for Windows event monitoring as follows:
edgewatch [-h hostname | ip _addr] [-p port] [-c community] [-v 1 | 2c | 3] [-u secName] [-s secLevel] [-n contextName] [-a authPassword] [-A MD5 | SHA] [-x privPassword] [-X DES | AES | 3DES] [-m FIPS_mode] [-r retries] [-t timeout] [-d logLevel] [-f logFile] -o ntevent command
Specifies the host name or IP address of the system on which the agent is running. Accepts IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
Default: localhost
Specifies the UDP port that the agent is running on (for example, 1691).
Default: 161
Specifies a community string that the agent uses. Valid for SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c only.
Note: Specify a read/write community string for snmpset.
Default: public
Indicates the version of SNMP that the agent is running. Specify 1 for SNMPv1, 2c for SNMPv2c, or 3 for SNMPv3.
Default: 1
Specifies the User-based Security Model (USM) user name that is used for SNMPv3 security.
Default: none
Specifies one of the following security levels for SNMPv3 communication:
3 - AuthPriv (SNMPv3 only)
Specifies the instance name for the MIBMuxed agent.
Default: none
Specifies the authentication password if the agent is configured for SNMPv3 with secLevel 2 (AuthNoPriv) or 3 (AuthPriv).
Note: This option is not required for SNMPv3 communication.
Default: none
Specifies the authentication protocol to use if the agent is configured for SNMPv3 with secLevel 2 (AuthNoPriv) or 3 (AuthPriv). Currently only MD5 (Message Digest Algorithm) and SHA (Secure Hash Algorithm) are used.
Default: MD5
Specifies the privacy (encryption) password if the agent is configured for SNMPv3 with secLevel 3 (AuthPriv).
Default: none
Specifies the privacy protocol if the SNMPv3 user is configured with secLevel 3 (AuthPriv). Specify DES for Data Encryption Standard, AES for Advanced Encryption Standard using cryptographic keys of 128 bits (AES128), and 3DES for Triple Data Encryption Standard.
Default: none
Controls the FIPS mode of operation. Accepted values are 0, 1, and 2.
Indicates Non-FIPS mode.
Indicates FIPS co-existence mode.
Indicates FIPS only mode.
Default: 1
Specifies the number of retries.
Default: 10
Specifies the duration before the SNMP receiver considers the request as timed out.
Default: 10 seconds
Specifies the log level of the SNMP messages. Accepted values are 0 to 5.
Logs fatal messages.
Logs critical messages.
Logs warning messages.
Logs informational messages.
Logs all of the messages.
Logs all of the messages including debugging messages.
Default: 0
Specifies the name of the log file that contains error and debug information.
Default: sysedge_utility.log
Specifies the command and associated arguments. Supported commands are the following:
