Provides a session table for the sensor listing ongoing sessions and their NUMA mappings and summary statistics. You can filter this command by source/destination IP addresses and ports using the following syntax:

show session [source ip [port]] [dest ip [port]]

Shows the status of key Stellar Cyber services on the sensor.

Not supported.

Available if tenable nessus is enabled in the sensor profile. Shows status of the scanner.

Shows information on CPU threads.

Shows system time.

Shows top resource usage by process.

Shows report on upgrades for this sensor.

Shows information on user-defined applications for this sensor. Note that the output for this command can be lengthy. Use the all parameter to see all entries in paged output (for example, show userapp all).

Shows the sensor software version, license status, features, and basic configuration. Also provides detailed information on CPU and memory usage:

• Total, free, and used memory is reported based on the output of the free -m Linux command.

• CPU usage is reported based on the output of the top -n 1 Linux command.

• Total, available, and used 1K disk blocks are reported based on the output of the df command.

Shows interfaces available for use as a VXLAN tunnel destination.

Shows Information on VXLAN tunnel configuration.

Lets you set the IP address to reach the management interface of the Data Processor from the sensor or aggregator. For a DP cluster, this is the IP address of the DL-master's management interface. For a single DP deployment, this is simply the DP's management IP address. You can supply either an IP address or a hostname. Running this command from the Sensor CLI Access window can be useful when migrating sensors from one DP to another.

Note: Using this command from the Sensor CLI Access window disconnects the sensor from its current DP. Because of this, you need to manually close the Sensor CLI Access window once the disconnection occurs.

The syntax is as follows:

• cm_addr – the IP address or hostname of the managing DP.

• safe – reverts the CM address to the previous address if connection to the new one is not successful. This parameter is automatically used by Stellar Cyber when set cm is executed from the Sensor CLI Access window regardless of whether you included it in the command line.

• force – sets the CM address to whatever you specify, regardless of connection success. Be careful when using this option.

Lets you set the log level for different modules. The syntax is as follows:

You can also set the loglevel timeout with the following command:

Stellar Cyber recommends that you only change the log level for modules while working with Custom Success personnel. If you do decide to change log levels, a good way to start is by checking the current log levels with the show log level command. The default log level for all modules is info.

The available modules (services) for which you can set the log level are as follows:

• audit (aella_audit)

• conf (aella_conf)

• ctrl (aella_ctrl)

• flow (aella_flow)

• mon (aella_mon)

The available log levels are as follows, from least to most severe:

• debug

• info

• warning

• error

• critical

As an example, you can set the log level for aella_flow to warning with the following command:

set loglevel flow warning

When you specify a log level, Stellar Cyber records events of the specified severity and above. So, for example, if you specify a log level of error, only events with a severity of error and critical are logged.

The log level setting also directly affects the quantity of events logged. For example, if you specify a log level of debug for a service, all events for that module are logged, regardless of severity.

Log Level Tips

Keep in mind the following tips when making changes to the log level:

• Stellar Cyber strongly recommends that you consult with Customer Success before changing log levels for a service.

• If you do make changes to the log level, Stellar Cyber recommends that you also set a loglevel timeout so that the log level returns to its normal state after whatever testing you are performing.

• Stellar Cyber recommends that you keep track of the time at which you change the log level. This can help the Customer Success team assist you with troubleshooting.

Lets you specify an NTP server for the sensor. The syntax is as follows:

Lets you set IP configuration for a sensor interface by name, including its IP address, default gateway, and DNS server. Start by using show interface to get the name of the interface you want to configure. For example, to configure the management interface, you would use set interface management <arguments>.

The syntax is as follows:

• ip [<IP Address/Netmask> | dhcp]
• gateway <IP Address>
• dns <IP Address>
