Besides the standard controls, this interface also has the following additional options in the button bar:
-
Branch - If it is necessary, it is possible to create additional branches of the rules files to keep different files separated. This can be useful in a multi-collector environment where each collector monitors a different device zone. This option is only available if a branch has been selected in the interface.
-
Upload - This control has different actions based on what is selected:
-
When a folder has been selected, this option allows an easy way to upload a file to the selected folder.
-
When a file has been selected, this option will overwrite the existing file.
-
-
Download - When a file has been selected, this option allows users to download the rules file.
-
Revert - When a file has been selected, this option allows for files to be reverted to an earlier version of the file.
-
Diff - When a file has been selected, this option allows users to see the differences between two different versions of the file.
