Authorize an LCE Client

In order for an LCE client to communicate with an LCE server, it must first be authorized. LCE clients that have requested authorization appear in the client table.

Note: Client authorization is completed in the web-based LCE Interface on the Clients page.

To authorize a client to communicate with an LCE server:

1. Log in to Log Correlation Engine via the user interface.

2. In the top navigation bar, click Clients.

   The Clients page appears, displaying the client table.

3. In the client table, in the rows corresponding to the LCE clients that you want to authorize, select the check boxes.

   Tip: You can use filters or sort by the Authorized column to quickly find LCE clients that need to be authorized.

4. Above the client table, in the upper-left corner, click the Actions button, and then click Authorize.

   The Authorize dialog box appears.

5. Review the list of LCE clients that will be authorized, and then click the Authorize button.

   The LCE clients are authorized and will immediately send a heartbeat.
