In addition, it is possible to distribute new active fingerprinting bundles to all connected active sensors:

Distribute Active Fingerprinting Bundles to Connected Active Sensors

Active fingerprinting bundles distribution happens via the CLI. To do this:

  1. Download the latest active fingerprinting bundle (named eyeInspect-active-sensor-fingerprinting.zip) to the Command Center.
    Note: Change the name of this bundle as there is already a default bundle present at /home/silentdefense with the same name.
  2. Run the following command:
    sudo nse-import <file-name.zip>

Note: The active fingerprinting bundle can only be distributed to connected sensors. If a sensor is connected or added later, run the command again to distribute the bundle to the newly connected or added sensors.
