Source configuration

When you create a Trellix mVision ePO Source, you add it to a Hosted Collector. Before creating the source, identify the Hosted Collector you want to use or create a new Hosted Collector. For instructions, see Configure a Hosted Collector.

To configure a Trellix mVision ePO Source, follow the steps below:

1. Classic UI. In the main Sumo Logic menu, select Manage Data > Collection > Collection.
   New UI. In the Sumo Logic top menu select Configuration, and then under Data Collection select Collection. You can also click the Go To... menu at the top of the screen and select Collection.
2. On the Collection page, click Add Source next to a Hosted Collector.
3. Search for and select Trellix mVision ePO.
4. Enter a Name for the Source. The description is optional.
5. (Optional) For Source Category, enter any string to tag the output collected from the Source. Category metadata is stored in a searchable field called _sourceCategory.
6. (Optional) Fields. Click the +Add button to define the fields you want to associate. Each field needs a name (key) and value.
   •  A green circle with a check mark is shown when the field exists in the Fields table schema.
   •  An orange triangle with an exclamation point is shown when the field doesn't exist in the Fields table schema. In this case, an option to automatically add the nonexistent fields to the Fields table schema is provided. If a field is sent to Sumo Logic that does not exist in the Fields schema it is ignored, known as dropped.
7. Enter the Client ID of your Trellix platform.
8. Enter the Client Secret of your Trellix platform.
9. Enter the API Key for authorization collected from the Trellix platform.
10. (Optional) The Polling Interval is set for 5 minutes by default. You can adjust it based on your needs. This sets how often the Source checks for new data.
11. When you are finished configuring the Source, click Save.
