Configuring EPS agent

About EPS and EPS agent

H3C iMC Endpoints Profiling System (EPS) detects, identifies, and monitors network-wide endpoints, including cameras, PCs, servers, switches, routers, firewalls, APs, printers, and ATMs. New endpoints and abnormal endpoints can be timely discovered and identified.

As shown in Figure 1, an EPS system contains the EPS server, scanners, and endpoints.

Figure 1 EPS network architecture

 

EPS server

The EPS server is a server installed with the iMC EPS component. It acts as the console to assign instructions to scanners, receive scan results, compare scan results with baselines, and support change auditing.

Scanner

A scanner is a device installed with iMC EScan and enabled with EPS agent. The scanner scans and manages endpoints by following the instruction of the EPS server and reports scan results to the EPS server.

EPS agent is based on the Comware platform and integrates the EPS scanner function. This chapter describes how to configure EPS agent.

Endpoint

An endpoint refers to a device scanned by a scanner. EPS supports user-defined endpoint types and the following system-defined endpoint types: camera, PC, server, switch, router, firewall, AP, printer, ATM, unknown, and other.

Restrictions: Hardware compatibility with EPS agent

The device does not support scanning endpoints connected to the gateway. If the console assigns a gateway-based scan task, no endpoints will be scanned.

Configuring EPS agent

1.     Enter system view.

system-view

2.     Configure EPS server parameters

eps server ip-address port port-number [ key { cipher | simple } key-value ] [ log-level level-value ] [ use-server-setting ]

By default, EPS server parameters are not configured.

3.     Enable EPS agent.

eps agent enable

By default, EPS agent is disabled.

Example: Configuring EPS agent

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 2Figure 2Figure 2Figure 2Figure 2Figure 2Figure 2, configure the scanner to enable it to scan endpoints based on the instruction of the EPS server.

Figure 2 Network diagram

 

Procedure

# Specify 20.1.1.2 and 4500 as the IP address and port number of the EPS server, respectively.

<Device> system-view

[Device] eps server 20.1.1.2 port 4500

# Enable EPS agent.

[Device] eps agent enable

Verifying the configuration

# Verify that the scanned information is displayed after the EPS server issues a scan instruction.

[Device] display eps agent discovery
