SmartFilter 3.x cron job<br />

The SmartFilter control list is updated weekly by the following job:<br />

/usr/sbin/smartfilter_auto_download<br />

The system administrator is notified via e-mail whenever the control list is<br />

successfully downloaded. This cron job is only necessary if maintaining<br />

SmartFilter 3.x instead <strong>of</strong> upgrading to SmartFilter 4.0.2.<br />

Note: This cron job is disabled by default.<br />

Monitor data retrieval cron job<br />

The following cron job retrieves disk utilization information once every minute:<br />

/usr/bin/get_monitor_data<br />

The data gathered from this job is used to generate the performance report.<br />

See Chapter 19 for information on generating audit reports.<br />

Report generating cron jobs<br />

You can use the Admin Console Reporting window to generate the following<br />

reports:<br />

• Root_access, service_denied, and traffic reports.<br />

• A network_probe report.<br />

Note: Daily reports are initially disabled in /etc/crontab. If you want to enable daily<br />

reports, you must first enable the auditdbd server or you will not receive any data.<br />

See “Activating the <strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong> license” on page 55.<br />
