Admin Configure
The settings of Taranis can be configured through the Taranis web interface or via the configuration files on the Taranis server. This chapter describes the different web-based configuration options Taranis offers.
The configuration of Taranis is opened through the “Configuration” link on top of every page. This chapter will focus on these configuration items only. It depends on the user's rights which configuration options are displayed.
