To complete the quick setup:

  1. In a browser, navigate to the Tenable Log Correlation Engine interface for the server (https://<hostname or IP address>:8836).

    The sign-in page appears.

  2. In both the Username and Password boxes, type admin.

  3. Click the Sign In To Continue button.

  5. Click the Next Step button.

    The Quick Setup Proxy Configuration dialog box appears.

  7. Click the Next Step button.

    The Quick Setup Set Activation Code dialog box appears.

    Caution: If the Tenable Log Correlation Engine server instance you are trying to activate is not connected to the Internet, you will need to perform the Offline Activation procedure. Complete that procedure, then continue this procedure from step 9.

  8. In a separate browser, find your activation code on the Tenable Community site, as described in the Tenable Community Guide.

    The Quick Setup Port Configuration dialog box appears.

    The boxes are populated with the default ports for each type of communication.

  12. (Optional) modify the values, and then click the Apply button.

    Note: It is recommended that you use the default ports unless a conflict is identified.

  13. Click the Next Step button.

    The Quick Setup Database Directory dialog box appears.

    By default, the Database Directory box is set to /opt/lce/db/. The Database Directory box specifies the location on the host where the Tenable Log Correlation Engine server will create and maintain silos.

  14. Confirm that the available space in the directory is sufficient for your Tenable Log Correlation Engine license.

  15. Click the Next Step button.

    The Quick Setup Network Ranges dialog box appears.

  16. In the Monitored Network box, type the network range that Tenable Log Correlation Engine will monitor. The network range must be entered in either CIDR notation, or <IP>/<netmask> format. For example, 192.168.0.0/24 or 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0.

  17. In the Excluded Network box, type a network range that you do not want to be monitored by Tenable Log Correlation Engine. The network range must be entered in either CIDR notation, or <IP>/<netmask> format.

  19. (Optional) to send vulnerability reports to Tenable Vulnerability Management, select Yes, and then enter the required information into the Cloud Address, Cloud Port, Cloud Scanner Key, and Scanner Name boxes.

    When the Tenable Log Correlation Engine server is configured to send vulnerability reports to Tenable Vulnerability Management, the Tenable Log Correlation Engine server will query Tenable Vulnerability Management for jobs. The Job Queue Check Rate specifies the amount of time that will elapse between each query.

  20. In the Job Queue Check Rate Min and Sec boxes, specify the amount of time that you want to elapse between each query.
