Setting Up

In order to begin using IPAM Security Policy App (ISPA) to integrated between your IPAMs and SecureTrack, you need to perform the following initial set-up tasks:

If you are already logged into SecureTrack, you will be logged into ISPA automatically.

All of these set-up tasks are performed in the Settings () menu.

  • Connect to SecureTrack: IPAM Security Policy App needs access to SecureTrack in order to map the collected subnets to a SecureTrack domain (in a multi-domain environment) and network zones, and retrieve subnets from SecureTrack if a daily sync is enabled.

  • Set up e-mail notifications: Define who will receive a summarizing subnet report by e-mail and from where it will be sent.

  • Define the log levels: Log levels are used for debugging and determine which information is collected in the log files.

After making any change in this menu, click Save.

Connect to SecureTrack

In the SecureTrack section, enter the following information:

  • Host: The IP address of the SecureTrack server. This address will also be used to link e-mails and reports to SecureTrack.
  • Login username
  • Login password

The username and password need to be for a SecureTrack user with Super Administrator permissions.

If this is a new user, log in to SecureTrack with that user to validate it.

Set up E-mail Notifications

ISPA sends out e-mail notifications for successful syncs and failed syncs.

To receive the e-mail notifications, in the E-mail notification section:

  1. Enter the following information for the outgoing e-mails:
    • Outgoing SMTP server
    • Port
    • Sender email address
    • Login user name
    • Login password
  2. If you want the e-mail notifications to be secured, select Enable TLS.
  3. In the E-mail Recipients field, enter the e-mail addresses (separated by a semi-colon) to which the app should send e-mail notifications.
