User roles and tasks
Only Admins and Users have access to the Operational Console where Skybox View tasks are managed.
Admins can create, manage, and run all tasks.
Users can view tasks that add information to the model, delete information from the model, or save the model. Users can create, manage, and run the following:
• All types of analysis tasks
• All types of report tasks, including CSV export tasks and XML vulnerability occurrence export tasks
• Ticket generation tasks
• Copy model tasks (which copy model data from one model to another, such as from Live to What If)
Setting task parameters
The general procedure for setting task parameters is described in this section.
The main dialog box for setting a task’s parameters is described in Task Properties dialog box (on page 12) and Schedule tab (on page 13). These sections describe parameters common to all tasks. For information about the parameters specific to each Skybox View task type, see the section relating to the task.
Tip: When you mouseover a field, a tooltip listing the values selected for that field appears. This is especially useful for fields of the Parameters pane that can hold multiple values.

Yearly
If you specify a day that does not exist in the selected month—for example, November 31— the task is never launched from this schedule.
5 To specify that the task runs a limited number of times, select End After and specify how many times the task is to run automatically.
6 In the Model field, specify the model on which to run this schedule. 7 Click OK.
8 If auto-launch is disabled (Enable Auto-launch is cleared in the General tab), you are asked whether you want to enable auto-launch.
You can run a sequence of tasks on a schedule. For information about task sequences, see the Using tasks for automation chapter in the Skybox Vulnerability Control User’s Guide or the Skybox Network Assurance User’s Guide.
Device access management
For some task types, you can instruct Skybox View to take user name and password pairs from a repository instead of typing this data in fields in the Task Properties dialog box.
In many organizations, the same user name and password combination is used to access multiple devices of one type. For example, there might be one user name and password to access your
organization’s Cisco routers in London and a separate combination to access the Cisco routers in New York. Admins can configure Skybox View so that each user name and password combination is saved by Skybox View and can be used by online collection tasks for devices of the specified type and scope.
This section contains information about setting up access for multiple devices.
Creating access tokens
In Skybox View, each combination of user name and password for a specific set of devices is referred to as an access token. Only Admins can create (and manage) these access tokens, which are used by some online collection tasks.
For devices that require an administrator user name and password combination, create two access tokens; a regular one (of type <Device_type>) for the regular user name and password, and a separate one (of type <Device_type> Admin) for the administrator combination.
The types of online collection tasks that can use access tokens are listed in the following table. Collection task type Token type
Routers – Cisco IOS Cisco, Cisco Admin
Routers – Nortel Passport Nortel Passport
To create an access token
1 Select Tools > Administrative Tools > Device Access Management. 2 In the Device Access Management dialog box, click Add.
3 In the New Access Token dialog box:
a) Type a Device Name for the access token, such as London Cisco routers. b) In the Field Type field, select the type of device.
Cisco IOS routers, which require an administrator user name and password combination, require two access tokens, one for a regular user whose Type is the device name type (Cisco) and one for the administrator user name and password combination whose Type has the string Admin appended to the name (Cisco Admin).
Skybox View version 7.0.600 15 c) In the User Name field, type the user name for this set of devices. For Admin-type access
tokens, this is the administrator user name.
d) In the Password and Confirm Password fields, type the password for this set of devices. For Admin-type access tokens, this is the administrator password.
e) If necessary, click the Browse button next to the Scope field to limit the scope of the device set.
f) Click OK to save the new device access token.
How access tokens are used
After creating access tokens, you can use them in online collection tasks. Each access token type matches a specific type of collection. Admin-type access tokens are used only when required by the devices being accessed.
Note: Access tokens are only used when Use Access Tokens is selected in the Properties dialog box of the task. If this option is not selected, even if access tokens exist for the devices specified in the task, they are not used.
When Use Access Tokens is selected, Skybox View checks the access tokens to find those that match the scope and type of the task.
• Access tokens that do not match either the scope or the type of the task are not used. For example, if there is an access token for Cisco routers in London and one for Cisco firewalls in London, a router collection task uses only the router-type access token and a firewall collection task uses only the firewall-type access token.
• If two (or more) access tokens are found that match a task, the best match (the one with the most specific range) is used.
For example, you create a collection task for a device with the address 192.170.1.127; an access token with a range of 192.168.0.0-192.172.0.0 matches the task, but an access token with a range of 192.170.0.0-192.170.2.0 is a more specific match and is used by the task.
Using Cyber-Ark for device password management
Cyber-Ark is a tool that allows highly-sensitive passwords to be centrally stored, logged, and managed.
The following tasks can be authenticated with Cyber-Ark:
• Firewalls – Check Point FireWall-1 CPMI Collection (on page 45)
• Firewalls – Cisco PIX/ASA/FWSM Collection (on page 58)
• Firewalls – Cisco Security Manager Collection (on page 61)
• Firewalls – FortiGate Collection (on page 64)
• Firewalls – FortiManager Collection (on page 66)
• Firewalls – Junos Collection (on page 68)
• Firewalls – NetScreen Collection (on page 69)

• Firewalls – McAfee Firewall Enterprise Collection (on page 73)
• Firewalls – Palo Alto Networks Collection (on page 75)
• Firewalls – Panorama Collection (on page 77)
Skybox View version 7.0.600 16
• Load Balancer – A10 Collection (on page 104)
• Load Balancer – AppDirector Collection (on page 109)
• Load Balancer – BIG-IP Collection (on page 108)
• Load Balancer – NetScaler Collection (on page 107)
• Proxy – Blue Coat Collection (on page 43)
• Routers – Cisco IOS Collection (on page 114)
• Routers – Cisco Nexus Collection (on page 118)
• Routers – HP ProCurve Collection (on page 121)
• Tools – Script Invocation (on page 40)
You must configure Cyber-Ark so that Skybox View tasks can retrieve device authentication credentials from Cyber-Ark.
Configuring Cyber-Ark for device credentials retrieval
It is recommended that you create a separate safe to contain all device authentication credentials required by Skybox View collection tasks.
It is recommended that you use one or more Cyber-Ark application security options:
• Add the IP address of the Skybox View Server
• Add the Operating System User of the Skybox View Server:
(If you installed the Server as a service): skyboxview
(If you did not install the Server as a service): The installation user
• Add the path to JBoss in the Skybox View installation: <Skybox_View_Home>\thirdparty\jboss
Note: The default folder for Cyber-Ark is Root and the default application ID for connecting from Skybox View is SkyboxSecurity. If you change these in Cyber-Ark, you must also change them in Skybox View. For additional information, see Global Task Settings, in the Skybox View Installation and Administration Guide.

Chapter 3
This chapter describes how to set the parameters of file import tasks.
Note: File import tasks can import a new model (in XML or encrypted XML format) into the current model, thus merging two models. This is useful if you must merge several models.
In this chapter
Import directory tasks ... 29 Data formats for file import tasks ... 31 Basic file import tasks ... 35 Advanced file import tasks ... 36 Collector file import tasks ... 39 Advanced collector file import tasks ... 39 Script invocation tasks... 40 Importing interface and routing configuration ... 41
Import directory tasks
Import – Directory tasks import the configuration or scan data files of multiple devices into a Skybox View model, where the files are in a specified directory located on the Skybox View Server or on a Skybox View Collector.
For a list of supported devices, scanners, and files and their file formats, see Supported devices and files for import directory tasks (on page 30).
Directory structure
Single configuration files for devices and scanner output files must be located in the specified directory (this directory can contain any number of these files, for the same or different devices); if a device has multiple configuration files, the files must be located in a first-level subdirectory of the specified directory (one subdirectory per device). You can specify up to four directories per Import – Directory task.
The specified directory can contain any of the following file types:
• A device configuration file
• A single file combines device configuration and a dump of the routing table
• A single file that combines the netstat and ifconfig data
• A scanner output file
• An iXML file
Each (first-level) subdirectory can contain one of the following sets of files:
• Device configuration and a dump of the routing table in separate files
• Check Point files:
(Mandatory) objects.C, rulesbases.fws
(Optional) global objects, statuses file
Skybox View version 7.0.600 30 Note: If the Check Point configuration contains several policies, install_statuses.C is
mandatory (it contains the information of which policy is installed on which firewall).
• netstat and ifconfig data in separate files
Note: In all cases the files can have any names: Skybox View identifies the file type.
Task parameters
The parameters that control Import – Directory tasks are described in the following table. Parameter Description
Basic tab
Run in The location of the files to import.
Modified in The age of the files to import.
• Custom: Select Specific or Relative start and end times.
Set <n> Specify up to four sets of devices (directories). (To import more
sets, use the Additional Sets field.)
If you specify Location Hint in the Advanced tab, all devices must be
at the same location.
Directory The full path to the directory containing the files (and
subdirectories) to import.
Comment Description of the contents of Directory.
Additional Sets Click the Browse button and type the directories containing the
configuration data of additional sets of devices (one per line). Optionally, specify a location hint per directory.
Advanced tab
Location Hint The location of the devices whose data is imported. (To import the
data of more than one device, the devices must be at the same location.)
Note: Use this parameter when different locations use the same set
of IP addresses, so that two devices at different locations can have the same IP address.
Merge assets by Wins name
Specifies whether to merge assets from the same network by name and not by IP address.
Select this option when assets do not have fixed IP addresses. Do not force unique
tag merging
If selected, and the firewall or router being imported has a unique tag, the task tries to match the device to devices already existing in the model according to network interfaces. If unsuccessful, the task adds the device to the model.
If cleared, the task adds the device to the model if it has a unique tag.
nCircle ASPL file (For nCircle XML3 imports) The ASPL file to use for all nCircle
imports (so that the file is only parsed once by Skybox View). If this field is left blank, the ASPL file is parsed separately for each nCircle import.
