Collector Builder

The Collector Builder is a standalone application that is used to build, configure, and debug Collectors. This application serves as an integrated development environment that allows the user to create new Collectors to parse data from source devices, using a special-purpose interpretive language designed to handle the nature of network and security events.

ESM introduces a new hierarchy of deployment objects that allows users to group multiple connections into sets. The hierarchy is as follows:

The event source, event source server, Collector, and Connector are configuration-related objects that can be added through the ESM user interface.
