Is it possible to restriced access to an passive robot

    Per default an robot in passive mode can contact/added from every hub from every domain. Question is, is there any switch or option available to restricted the access to dedicated ip addresses or hostname(s).

    Our security concern was, when someone, which know the landscape and the used tools and had access to UIM hub software, they can capture the passive robot and can get control of the server itself for whatever reason.

    Inside UIM we didn´t find an option to prevent the passive robot for capturing from an foreign hub. One idea was to control this via OS based firewall. Any other ideas or options we didn´t know?

     

    Thanks

    not within the product you will need to use local firewalls to do this.
