# Sensors Page Overview

| | | | | |

| **Role Availability** | **Read-Only** | **Investigator** | **Analyst** | **Manager** |

The Sensors page enables you to add new sensors (Sensors are deployed into an on-premises, cloud, or multi-cloud environment to collect logs and other security-related data. This data is normalized and then securely forwarded to USM Anywhere for analysis and correlation.), configure the deployed sensors, delete and redeploy sensors, and edit a sensor for modifying the name or description. Go to **Data Sources > Sensors** to open the Sensors main page. The page displays the list of sensors you have deployed in your environment.

The following table lists the default columns in the Sensors page.

**List of the Default Columns in the Sensors Page**

| Column Field Name | Description |
| - | - |
| Sensor Name | Name of the deployed sensor. The type of sensor is displayed below the name. |
| Description | Text identifying the sensor. |
| IP Address | IP address assigned to the sensor. |
| Version | Installed version of the sensor. |
| Connection Status | Status of the sensor, which can be the following: Waiting for connection: The sensor has been added to the system, but it is not connected. Connected: The sensor is connected, but it is still initializing and performing configurations. Connection lost: The sensor has lost the connection. (Logs, including NXLog messages, are cached locally and will be forwarded to USM Anywhere when the connection resumes.) Ready: The sensor is connected and configured. |
| Configured | Icon to indicate if the sensor is configured (![](https://mintcdn.com/levelblue-final/uEuk8g2TBjXc6sIM/images/usm-anywhere/success-circle-dark-green.svg?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=uEuk8g2TBjXc6sIM\&q=85\&s=d3f9e09787d11ca3d6d343b591bd7fda)) or not (![](https://mintcdn.com/levelblue-final/933tAZ_mi6gE6Q_5/images/usm-anywhere/error-circle-dark-red.svg?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=933tAZ_mi6gE6Q_5\&q=85\&s=146631e83d4efd7110c56a28c8a2834e)). |

See [Editing a Sensor](https://levelblue-final.mintlify.site/documentation/usm-anywhere/user-guide/sensor-management/editing-sensors.md) for more information.

Use the ![](https://mintcdn.com/levelblue-final/3ewB6g_LmXIUaKmn/images/usm-anywhere/trash-alt.svg?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=3ewB6g_LmXIUaKmn\&q=85\&s=bb52e19abd824deb8ffa3f002bc691d4) icon to delete the sensor and deploy a new one. See [Redeploying a Sensor](https://levelblue-final.mintlify.site/documentation/usm-anywhere/user-guide/sensor-management/redeploying-sensors.md) for more information. You can also use this button to delete the sensor permanently. See [Deleting a Sensor](https://levelblue-final.mintlify.site/documentation/usm-anywhere/user-guide/sensor-management/deleting-sensors.md) for more information.

You can also click a sensor to display the specific information about that sensor. See [Configuring a Sensor](https://levelblue-final.mintlify.site/documentation/usm-anywhere/user-guide/sensor-management/configuring-sensors.md) for more information.

## Sensors Running on an Outdated Version of USM Anywhere

USM Anywhere doesn't support sensors running on an outdated version of USM Anywhere. When USM Anywhere identifies a configured sensor running on an outdated version, a yellow announcement displays to warn you about it. See [Configure Network Interfaces for On-Premises Sensors](https://levelblue-final.mintlify.site/documentation/usm-anywhere/deployment-guide/setup/configuring-network.md) to confirm that the sensor on an outdated version meets the proper requirements and contact [LevelBlue Technical Support](https://cybersecurity.att.com/support) for assistance.
