Deploying the Internet Information Services Management Pack

  • Article

Depending on the features of the Management Pack that you are using, the following configuration can be performed:

  • Configure IIS logging - Enable IIS logging to gather data from IIS logs. Without IIS log data, this Management Pack collects only service discovery data.

  • Modify settings for collecting service discovery data - In addition to collecting the default service discovery data for IIS, you can configure the Management Pack to collect IIS script maps.

  • Adjust IIS log file sizes - If IIS logs exceed 2 GB per day, configure IIS logging to start new logs based on size, instead of frequency.

  • Lock out Internet attackers - Configure the Management Pack to add the IP address of Internet attackers to the IP Deny list for all Web sites on a local computer.

  • Set up reporting - No additional configuration is necessary; however, you can troubleshoot reports by verifying that the dependent rules are enabled and that IIS servers are members of the appropriate computer groups.
