Addressing Drive Mapping Issues with a Custom Script Action

Posted on April 25, 2024

A user is seeking suggestions for a custom script action to identify the root cause of drive mapping issues for a customer. More information is needed on what the script should achieve. The customer deploys network drives via GPO, and the issue could be due to reasons such as VPN or insufficient permissions. The user wants to gather as much information as possible when a drive is not mapped, as a gpupdate/force does not provide insight into the cause of the issue.

Troubleshooting Edge DX and Netskope CASB

Posted on February 20, 2024

A user asked about Netskope CASB causing Edge DX to show their IP address as a Netskope owned one instead of their actual ISP IP. They found an article about ZScaler needing to be set up to bypass some ControlUp URLs for the real IP to show, and asked if this would likely be the same fix for Netskope. Another user responded saying they had a similar issue with ZScaler and needed to set up a bypass in order to correctly report ISPs. It is likely that EdgeDX is looking at the IP the client is coming in from and showing the Netskope IP. The ZScaler bypass information can be found here: https://support.controlup.com/docs/show-the-real-ip-address-for-devices-using-zscaler-vpn

Creating Reports on Device Network Connections with ControlUp Edge DX

Posted on December 8, 2023

A user asked if it is possible to create a report based on the last time a device connected to the company's network using EdgeDX. EdgeDX provides the 'netcfg_info' and 'location_history' indexes with information on the public IP and network adapter IP associated at that time. Alternatively, a script can be used to send data to a custom index when an internal IP address is reachable.
