4 SmartConnector Release These notes describe how to apply this latest release of ArcSight's SmartConnectors, as well as providing other information about recent changes and open and closed issues. To Apply This Release Download the appropriate executable for your platform from the Support Web site ( as well as the separate downloadable zip file of SmartConnector Configuration Guides (which should be unzipped in a folder you create for the documentation).

See your platform's 64-bit SmartConnector installer for the list of available connectors, or see the document "SmartConnectors Available for 64-Bit Platforms" listed on the SmartConnector Documentation page on Protect 724 ( or in the SmartConnector Configuration Guide zip file available for download from the Support Web Site. For a successful SmartConnector installation, follow the installation procedures documented in the individual SmartConnector Configuration Guides. The most current configuration guides are available with each SmartConnector release in a separate downloadable file from the Support Web site ( rather than as part of the SmartConnector installation process. Create a folder for the documentation (such as c:\arcsight\docs) and unzip the file there. Then double-click index.html to access the individual configuration guides.

5 SmartConnector Enhancements Confidential In each SmartConnector release, updates and enhancements are made to the field mappings for individual SmartConnectors. If you use any of the SmartConnectors listed in the "Fixed Issues" section of these release notes, be aware that installing the updated SmartConnector can impact your created content. HP advises you to verify the content you created before deploying the SmartConnector into your production environment. All ArcSight FlexConnectors Enhanced map files to set a field based on an expression similar to one found in a parser, using other fields in the event as possible inputs. [CON-14158] All Syslog File SmartConnectors Syslog File connectors supported on Windows platform. [CON-12199] IBM SiteProtector DB Siteprotector to use AlertName for Device Event Class ID 500K. [CON-14018] NOTE: DECID has changed from XFID to AlertName. McAfee Web Gateway File Added support for AccessDenied and FoundViruses log types [CON-14094] Microsoft Forefront Threat Management Gateway File A new internal property, isalogfiletimezoneid, was added to specify the log file rotation time zone. Users only need to specify the value for this property when the log file rotation time zone is different from the connector host time zone. The possible values are valid time zone IDs, for example, GMT, PST, EST, etc. [CON-14107] Microsoft Windows Event Log Unified Mapped Failure Information:Status to an ArcSight field [CON-13871] Snort Multiple File Added support for payload retrieval. [CON-13505] Fixed Issues SmartConnector for Number Description All SmartConnectors CON Previously, if the Enable Batching (per event) parameter was configured to a value of 600, it would cause a large number of lost events when the destination was ESM, unless the http.transport.queuesize property in the agent.properties file was adjusted to a higher value. Now that condition is detected to avoid event loss. For best performance, the Enable Batching (per event) value should not be set to values higher than 300 for ESM destinations unless the http.transport.queuesize property has been set to a significantly higher value. Increasing the connector s memory may also be necessary for larger batch sizes. Check Point OPSEC NG CON Error corrected in parser for event.devicecustomdate2. Citrix NetScaler Syslog CON Connector was not parsing some v 9.2 events completely. This issue has been fixed.
