The following actions will help you maintain your sensor:
Create a service account.
You can use the service account when you need to work with the TAC to troubleshoot your sensor.
See Creating the Service Account, for the procedure.
You should back up a good configuration. If your current configuration becomes unusable, you can replace it with the backup version.
See Creating and Using a Backup Configuration File, for the procedure.
Save your backup configuration to a remote system.
Always back up your configuration before you do a manual upgrade. If you have auto upgrades configured, make sure you do periodic backups.
