X10G security blade management consoles

The Websense Security Blade Manager is the name of the management console for the X10G security blades. This is a graphical interface for configuring each security blade, checking the status of the software modules, updating passwords, troubleshooting, and applying patches to the blades.

Note that the Security Blade Manager differs from the Chassis Management Controller, which provides remote management capabilities and power control functions for hardware and software on the blade chassis.

Security Blade Manager provides status information about each module running on a security blade and enables you to establish assignments and routes for each blade's network interfaces.

Perform configuring tasks for the software module on each security blade (such as setting up users and defining and applying filtering policies) through the module's management console, as shown below.
