After installing Network Agent, use TRITON - Web Security to configure its network monitoring behavior. Network Agent settings are divided into two main areas:

Global settings affect all Network Agent instances. Use these settings to:

Identify the machines in your network.

List machines in your network that Network Agent should monitor for incoming requests (for example, internal Web servers).

Specify bandwidth calculation and protocol logging behavior.

Local settings apply only to the selected Network Agent instance. Use these settings to:

Identify which Filtering Service instance is associated with each Network Agent.

Note proxies and caches used by the machines that this Network Agent monitors.

Configure how each network card (NIC) in the Network Agent machine is used (to monitor requests, send block pages, or both).

Network card settings also determine which segment of the network each Network Agent instance monitors.
