Installed Tripwire version is 8.3 in the test environment. Here are some basic steps to configure a new network device node into the Tripwire Enterprise 8.3:
1. Add a new node:
Assigned to Custom type Cisco which gives more flexibility.
Enter correct username and password.

Important part is to give right maker and model information to get it auto assigned into smart group.

This screenshot shows the new node assigned to right Cisco Nexus 5000 group.


2. Do a check or baseline to new node with proper rule. 

In this example, I used Cisco IOS configuration Rule which is to run Show Running-Config command

3. Rules. 

Create a new rule for your device. Using Network Device -> Common -> Command Output Validation Rule template:


In the rule, put proper command just as following screenshot shows:

Next Screenshot shows how to check Checkpoint rules.C

Another thing in the rule is Target Node Type.

4. Report

Create a report based on a report template.



5. Task.

Schedule a task to send the report to your email.
