server within that interval, it retransmits the heartbeat packet until the Heartbeat Retry Interval

value is reached. The iNode client then disconnects from the DAM server, and the DAM server
waits for one more interval to determine that the asset is offline.

Life of Log—Enter the number of days DAM keeps logs in the database, including peripheral
monitoring logs, printer monitoring logs, and USB monitoring logs. The DAM server deletes expired

logs on a daily basis.

Asset Change Record Lifetime—Enter the number of days DAM keeps records of asset hardware
and software changes in the database. The DAM server deletes expired records on a daily basis.

Asset Policy Request Period—Enter the interval, in minutes, at which iNode client requests are sent
for the latest asset policy information from the DAM server.
For assets that stay online for a long period of time, the iNode client sends requests for up-to-date

asset policy information at a specified interval. Examples of the information requested include new
DAM service parameters and software deploy tasks.

Server Port—Enter the listening port of the DAM server. DAM uses this port to listen for packets
about changes made by the operator on the IMC GUI to the DAM settings, and adjusts itself

accordingly. This value must be the same as that in the configuration file.

Proxy Server Port—Enter the port used by the DAM proxy server to listen for requests from the
iNode client. This value must be the same as that in the configuration file.
To modify the DAM server port and proxy server port in the configuration file:

a.

Locate the file \dam\conf\server.xml in the installation path of IMC.

b.

Open the file with a text editor such as Notepad.

c.

Search for Service name="Dam Server" and change the value of the notifyPort parameter.

d.

Search for Service name="DAM Proxy" and change the value of the listenPort parameter.

e.

Restart the damserver process.

Packets Encrypted—Select this option to enable encryption and compression of packets exchanged
between the DAM server and the iNode client. Enable this function to protect data transmission.

Desktop Asset Server Log Level—Select the lowest level of logs to be recorded by DAM. Options
are Fatal, Error, Warning, Info, and Debugging, in descending order of severity. The DAM server

records logs of the selected level and all higher levels.. Do not use the debugging level except for

troubleshooting because it consumes system resources.

Send Syslogs—Select this option to allow DAM to send syslogs to a syslog server.

Syslog Server IP—Enter the IP address of the syslog server. This field appears only when Send

Syslogs is set to Enable.
Monitoring alarm policies requires a syslog server. These policies allow the DAM server to
encapsulate monitoring information within syslogs and send them to the syslog server. The

monitoring information is reported by the iNode client, including changes to software and

hardware assets, and unauthorized copying and printing of sensitive files. For more information,

see "

Configuring monitoring alarm policies

."

Report Network Connection Changes—Select this option to enable the iNode client to report asset

network connection changes to DAM. These include changes to NIC serial numbers, IP addresses,
DHCP statuses, gateways, MAC addresses, and subnet masks. DAM records them as asset

software changes for auditing. For more information, see "

Asset software change record audit

."

Asset-Access Account Binding—Specify whether DAM checks the access account bound to each
asset for authentication. This parameter is available only in manual numbering mode.
