Services View
You set up and maintain the NetWitness services in the Services view. In the Services view, you can:
- Quickly search for and locate a specific service or type of service, such as Log Decoder or Warehouse Connector.
- Use shortcuts to get to administration tasks.
- Add, edit, and remove services.
- Sort services by name and host.
- Filter services by type, name, and host.
- Start, stop, and restart services.
A service performs a unique function, such as collecting logs or archiving data. Each service runs on a dedicated port and is modeled as a plug-in to enable or disable, according to the function of the host. You must configure the following Core services first.
You must configure hosts and services to communicate with the network and each other so they can perform their functions such as storing or capturing data. For information about ports and a comprehensive list of ports for all services, see "Network Architecture and Ports" in the Deployment Guide for NetWitness Platform. Go to the NetWitness All Versions Documents page and find NetWitness Platform guides to troubleshoot issues.
Workflow
This workflow shows the procedures you complete to set up and maintain a service. Adding a service to a host is the first task in this workflow. The hosts with Core services are set up out-of-the-box. After that, you can set up additional services on hosts to enhance your NetWitness deployment.
What do you want to do?
* You can perform these tasks in the current view.
