Sensor Management

The Sensors page is your central fleet dashboard. It provides a map view and a table of all deployed sensors, with controls for monitoring and administering them.

Fleet Map View

The world map at the top of the Sensors page shows your sensors clustered by region. Color indicates sensor health status:

• Green: Sensor is active and collecting data normally. All sensors in cluster are healthy.
• Red: Sensor is offline or misconfigured. All sensors in cluster are unhealthy.
• Yellow: At least one sensor in the cluster is unhealthy.
• Teal: The sensor is connected, but the GreyNoise health agent is not installed — if connectivity issues arise, diagnostic information will not be available.

Click Hide Map to collapse the map and show more of the sensor table.

Sensor Table

The table below the map lists all sensors with the following columns:

Filtering and Search

• Use the "Search Sensors…" box to filter by name or IP
• Filter by Country using the country dropdown
• Toggle between Enabled and Disabled sensors using the status toggle
• Use Export to download your sensor list

Sensor Detail Page

Click View on any sensor to open its detail page. From here you can:

• Monitor session activity over the past 6 hours
• Edit your sensor name
• See the sensor’s IP address, SSH port, registration date, and coordinates
• Edit the IP address if it changes (static IP strongly recommended)
• Change the active deception profile via Change Profile
• Reconnect via SSH using the pre-populated command shown on the page: ssh -p <your-ssh-port> user@<your-sensor-ip>
• Expand the Disable Sensor section at the bottom of the page and click DISABLE SENSOR to remove the sensor from the GreyNoise Sensor Cloud.
  • Note: Disabling a sensor does not decommission the underlying server — you will need to do that separately using your standard server process.
