Chapter 39      Configuring Correlation Policies and Rules 
  Creating Rules for Correlation Policies
Note that to use a host profile qualification, the host must exist in the network map and the host profile 
property you want to use as a qualification must already be included in the host profile. For example, if 
you configure a correlation rule to trigger when an intrusion event is generated for a host running 
Windows, the rule only triggers if the host is already identified as Windows when the intrusion event is 
generated.
To add a host profile qualification:
Access: 
Admin/Discovery Admin
Step 1
Select 
Policies > Correlation
, then select the 
Rule Management
 tab.
The Rule Management page appears.
Step 2
Click 
Create Rule
.
The Create Rule page appears.
Step 3
On the Create Rule page, click 
Add Host Profile Qualification
.
The Host Profile Qualification section appears.
Tip
To remove a host profile qualification, click 
Remove Host Profile Qualification
.
Step 4
Build the host profile qualification’s conditions.
You can create a single, simple condition, or you can create more elaborate constructs by combining and 
nesting conditions. See 
 for information on how to 
use the web interface to build conditions. 
The syntax you can use to build conditions is described in 
Step 5
Optionally, continue with the procedures in the following sections:

If you are finished building the correlation rule, continue with step 
 of the procedure in 
 to save the rule.
Syntax for Host Profile Qualifications
License: 
FireSIGHT
When you build a host profile qualification condition, you must first select the host you want to use to 
constrain your correlation rule. The host you can choose depends on the type of event you are using to 
trigger the rule, as follows:
  •
If you are using a connection event, select 
Responder Host
 or 
Initiator Host
.
  •
If you are using an intrusion event, select 
Destination Host
 or 
Source Host
.
  •
If you are using a discovery event, host input event, or user activity, select 
Host
.
After you select the host type, you continue building your host profile qualification condition, as 
described in the following table.
