Managing SmartConnectors

ArcSight SmartConnectors, if installed and configured to send events to the Manager, are available on the Console for further configuration. SmartConnectors that appear on the Console as resources are called registered connectors.

You can configure ArcSight SmartConnectors to optimize their performance and increase their functionality. For example, you can configure SmartConnectors to enable aggregation, batching, and time filter correction functionality. You can also send control commands from the ArcSight Console or the ArcSight Command Center to SmartConnectors to manage the flow of events.
