Finding Servers in Connections and Groups
You can look up a specific server to see all the connections and groups it is part of. This is useful in several cases:
- When you notice heavy traffic to a particular IP address, and want to find out who owns this server and which applications use it.
- When you add a new server to SecureApp, and need to check if this IP address already exists.
- When you inspect specific resources, and need to find all servers that communicate with these resources.
Server Lookup allows you to search for any server in the SecureApp system. The search results show all of the servers that match either:
- Text in the Server Name, IP Address or Comment fields - You can also search for exact matches (case-sensitive) of the search text to narrow the results.
- Subnet defined by IP address and netmask - You can show the subnets that contain the specified subnet, servers that are contained within the specified subnet, or servers that match the subnet exactly.
For example:
- Subnet that contains - If you enter the subnet 10.10.10.0/24, the results include servers such as 10.10.0.0/16 and 10.10.10.0/24. If you enter the subnet 10.10.10.1/32, the results include hosts that have the IP address 10.10.10.1.
- Contained in subnet - If you enter the subnet 10.10.0.0/16, the results include servers such as 10.10.10.0/24 and hosts such as 10.10.10.1/32.
After you search for servers, you can select a server from the search results and see the connections or groups where this server is used, either explicitly or as part of a group object.
Look up a server
- Go to the Server Lookup view.
- In the Search by field, select Text or Subnet search and the relevant parameter.
- For Text, the parameter can be: All, Server Name, IP Address, or Comment
- For Subnet, the parameter can be:
- Subnets that contain - Shows all networks that include the specified subnet, including the subnet itself, even if it is a host.
- Contained in subnet - Shows all objects that have an IP address in the subnet, including the subnet itself.
- Exact match - Shows only servers that match the exact specified string.
- Click .
- Select an object from the list.
The top pane lists all servers that match your criteria and specifies their details: Application (a link to the application details), Name, IP Address and Comment.
- Select a server from the search results list to view the Connectivity and Groups it is part of in the bottom panes:
- The Connectivity pane shows all the connections this server is part of (the server is highlighted in orange). If this server is part of a group, you can click the [Info] link to open the Group Members window and see the other servers contained in this group.
- The Groups pane lists all the groups of which this server is a member. You can click on a group to open the Group Members window and see the other servers contained in this group.
