Using the Intrusion Detection System GUI

You can use the Intrusion Detection System GUI to configure and manage intrusion detection policies, and display the intrusion events that have been logged in the audit journal.

Using the IDS GUI in IBM Navigator for i

To use the Intrusion Detection System GUI in IBM® Navigator for i, perform these steps:
  1. Expand IBM i Management > Security.
  2. Click Intrusion Detection to display the Intrusion Detection Management page.
After you have started IDS, you can perform the following tasks:
  • Start IDS.
  • Stop IDS.
  • Intrusion detection system setup.
  • Manage intrusion detection policies.
  • Display intrusion detection events.

IDS does not need to be started to display existing policies or the intrusion events, but IDS must be started to pick up the new policies and to monitor the system for new intrusions and extrusions.
