What is an Auxiliary DV?
Auxiliary DVs are specialized filter packages that address specific security needs. They augment the protection provided by the base DV. The update and distribution of an Auxiliary DV package are independent of your base DV. Auxiliary DV packages are activated when distributed to the device and deactivated when they are uninstalled from the device.
Where do I get the SMS Client software?
The Security Management System (SMS) Client software contains the interface through which you manage your TippingPoint system.

What is GEO Locator?
The Security Management System (SMS) incorporates a feature called Geo Locator. The GEO Locator database contains geographical information associated with IP addresses. You can enable the Geo Locator Lookup service to correlate the country of origin for host IP addresses associated with events. You can also query the database to view the country's location for a specified hostname or IP address. In addition, with the Geo Locator service enabled, you can also view a map showing the country of origin for all IP addresses generating events.
