1.1 What is Sax2? 

Sax2 is network security and management tools, which is designed for the network specifically with powerful functions and simple operation. With the real-time packets capturing and analysis of system, you can detect network attacks, and interfere with its implementation once discovered, thereby protecting networks against attacks.

2.1
Iinstalled Sax2 will affect net speed?

Sax2 is the bypass monitoring mode; only analyze the copy of the packets, so it will not affect the existing communications and network speed. Is the choice of hub (HUB) or switch to monitor? we recommend using HUB (Please note the Hub’s connection), otherwise needing to use the mirror switch, when the export bandwidth of less is than 4 M.

2.2 Capture Nothing.

Maybe not choose the right adapter. Click "Detection \ Adapter" menu to pop-up adapter settings window,All supported adapters are listed in the Adapter page, if there are two or more adapters , check whether the selected adapter is the adapter you are using. If did not find any adapter or information is not correct, that means you have the installation problems. Please re-install. If after the re-installation, we also can not find the adapter , then it is possible that the adapter does not support.

                                                                                                                                              Top

2.3 Why I can only capture  the local traffic?

This means your computer is connected with the switch. In order to capture   other computer’s traffic, we need to increase a HUB  or a switch which support mirror port. If the connect Internet through the server, it also can be installed directly on the server. Please refer to specific "Installation & deployment "

                                                                                                                                              Top

2.4 HUB or mirror switches on the recommendation models.

Recommended HUB (hub) models: TL-HP5MU of the Tplink, ( five port 10 M Ethernet hub).

Recommended mirror switch models: TL-SF2005 of the Tplink, ( five port mirror switches).

                                                                                                                                              Top

2.5 Whether the company will leak privacy by using Sax2?

Sax2 only run in your company's operating within the LAN, do not have any data exchange with Interne except checking for updated version. Information is in the local archive, will not cause the leakage of information.

                                                                                                                                              Top
 

2.6 What is principle to realize Sax2?

   1). Protocol Analysis of Principles

Through the mirror port or switch HUB radio communications, can receive the communication data packets from other control host. And then revert data package by software, extracted the data from it.

   2). Blocking Principles

TCP communication is the connection-oriented, so can disconnect the TCP connection d by sending some disguise packets. This is the blocking principle of Sax2.

2.7 Can Sax2 monitor Active Directory domain network?

Sax2 can monitor the computer in domain , but can not support monitoring by domain account, only can monitor based on the MAC address and IP address.

                                                                                                                                              Top

2.8 When re-install, whether need to backup configuration and log?

When uninstall, we will delete the profile, but does not delete the log file, so before you re-install, you better back up the previous configuration (installation directory’s the "data" directory is that).

3.1  How to determine the name of worker who uses a computer?

   1). Sax2 monitor under the MAC address (LAN address, the user can not be changed) by default. In a single network environment, MAC address and the computer are one-to-one relationship, according to MAC address to judge the corresponding staff.

   2) In the multi- segment network  environment, MAC address and computer are not one-to-one relationship, and need to monitor through IP addresses. Therefore, only through IP address to judge the user, we recommend using IP and MAC bundled technology in cases of multi- segment network environment, to prevent employees to evade monitoring through the revision of IP.

3.2 How can I see a machine's MAC address?

 MAC address is the adapter address  Click the "Start" -> "Run", input "cmd”, click enter, and then input "ipconfig / all" to cmd window. To see all the configuration information of the adapter, the "Physical Address" is the MAC address.

3.3 Can I monitor MSN after it use plug-in encryption?

Yes, you can. But you will see the content is encrypted (it will be messy code.)

                                                                                                                                              Top
 

3.4 Can Sax2 detect the traffic occupation in the network?

Sax2 can count the entire  network or a single network node, including the total traffic, traffic per second, the average traffic in detail.

3.5 Why do not show the email which I sent from web page in the mail logs?

Sax2’s mail analysis functions support the protocol is SMTP and POP3, while sending e-mail based on web use the HTTP protocol, and submits with form style, so it will not be displayed in the email log automatically.

3.6 Email log list capturing the e-mail message, but I double-click the message to see the original information, failed. Why?

Sax2 did not keep copies of e-mail message by default. In this case, you will not see the original information directly. To enable this feature, Please refer to help document.

                                                                                                                                              Top

3.7Can Sax2  identify the worm infected machines in  network?

Yes it can. There are two kinds worm. One is based on e-mail worm; the other one is based on operating system. The first worm’s the performance of the main characteristics is high frequency sending a message, similar content in the message headers, the same e-mail attachments. The second worm’s the performance of the main characteristics is trying to work with all host LAN connection, linking the port are consistent and link between the gap between short time, greater flow of occupation. Sax2’s email logs can capture analysis and reorganize sending and receiving mail in the network. According to e-mail log information and the features of e-mail worm, user can identify the worm infected machines in  network. Through packet view and conversation view, you can easily identify infected machines within vulnerabilities worm.

3.8 When we manage firewall through web interface, need to add 10,081 port behind the URL, but then I have not seen the information in the HTTP logs, what is the problem?

By default, Sax2 analyze the HTTP accessing based on the 80 port. Analyze the web accessing based on other port (such as the 10,081) , Please refer to help document.

                                                                                                                                              Top

3.9 If access the  Web site  by https, can it analyze the accessing server information?

No, it can not.  Https is encrypted transmission. Sax2 or even all of the protocol software can only capture communications packets of https, but can not analyze and restrict its specific accessing information.

3.10  When capture packets, find some adapter have a number of IP addresses. Why? Is this normal?

Generally, a adapter has a number of IP addresses, as followings:

Under normal circumstances, a adapter targeted a number of IP.

Gateway: When data communicates, each of the three-tier equipment will change the source address of the packet into his own, and send to the next equipment, so a gateway matching a number of IP is normal.

ARP attacks: when do ARP attacks, generally there will have a host of intermediaries, this host will match a number of IP because of the needs to deceive the client and gateway together.

Therefore, when the adapter matches a number of IP address, we need to analyze. If it belongs to segment 1 and 2, it is normal, but if it is the third one, which means the network is in the attacks, and the current adapter corresponding to the host which is the attack source, should immediately conduct a thorough investigation.

3.11 Why I can only capture the packets sent , can not capture the packets  received ?

This phenomenon is due to your wrong HUB connection or incorrect switch ports mirror configured. If you are using the HUB with the uplink, the port which connects uplink port can not connect to any network lines. If it still does not work, you can try another port. If you are using the switch, please make sure whether have done mirrors in send and receive data.
