The following topics explain how to model your network and configure various aspects of the network model (assets, locations, zones, and so on), and how to manage customer accounts (if applicable).

ArcSight operates on a data model that enables you to build a business-oriented view of data derived from physical information systems. These distinctions help to clearly identify the events in your network, and provide more layers of detail to correlation. Modeling your network and its assets is part of setup and ongoing maintenance.
The network model consists of the asset model and the network model, which, combined, facilitate building detailed correlation criteria. All of the Network Modeling resources, except Customers, are available as part of the Assets resource.
The The Network Model is a representation of the nodes on your network and certain characteristics of the network itself.
The Asset Model describes attributes of the assets themselves for different purposes.
Tip: For an overview and information about types of assets and the network model, refer to the “Network Model” section of ESM 101.
