Update Policy Statistics

The following steps describe how to update the statistics of a System Defense policy.

1. Retrieve the instance of CIM_EthernetPort with the DeviceID of the interface whose System Defense Policy you wish to update:

Key

Value

• “Intel(r) AMT Ethernet Port 0” – wired port

• “Intel(r) AMT Ethernet Port 1” – wireless port

2. Retreive the instance of AMT_SystemDefensePolicy with the InstanceID that you want.

Note:

The InstanceID is the ID of the System Defense policy you want to update.

3. Invoke AMT_SystemDefensePolicy.UpdateStatistics with the following parameters:

Parameter

Value

NetworkInterface

The EPR of the interface you seloected with the DeviceID of step 1.

ResetOnRead

Reset the statistics. Valid values:

• True

• False

Note:

The UpdateStatistics method can only be performed on a policy that is active on the interface which is passed in the NetworkInterface parameter.

You can execute this snippet by inserting it into the execution template found here.

# Select the wired interface.

$ethernetPortRef =$wsmanConnectionObject.NewReference("SELECT * FROM CIM_EthernetPort WHERE DeviceID='Intel(r) AMT Ethernet Port 0'")

# $systemDefensePolicyRef is an EPR to the AMT_SystemDefensePolicy object created by the 'Create System Defense Policy' use case.

$inputObject =$systemDefensePolicyRef.CreateMethodInput("UpdateStatistics")

$inputObject.SetProperty("NetworkInterface",$ethernetPortRef)

$inputObject.SetProperty("ResetOnRead","true")

$outputObject =$systemDefensePolicyRef.InvokeMethod($inputObject)

$returnValue =$outputObject.GetProperty("ReturnValue")

Additional Information

The AMT_SystemDefensePolicy.UpdateStatistics method creates an AMT_ActiveFilterStatsitics association instance implicitly for every instance of AMT_FilterInSystemDefensePolicy associated to the policy.
