Adding Devices to the Defense Center
License: 
Any
When you manage a device, you set up a two-way, SSL-encrypted communication channel between the 
Defense Center and the device. The Defense Center uses this channel to send information about how you 
want to analyze your network traffic to the device. As the device evaluates the traffic, it generates events 
and sends them to the Defense Center using the same channel.
Note that you cannot add devices running software more than one major version lower than the Defense 
Center. For example, if your Defense Center is running Version 5.3.1, you can add devices running 
Version 5.2.x or higher but not devices running Version 5.1.x.
Before you manage a device with a Defense Center, you must make sure that the network settings are 
configured correctly on the device. This is usually completed as part of the installation process. See 
 for more information.
Note that if you registered a Defense Center and a device using IPv4 and want to convert them to IPv6, 
you must delete and re-register the device.
