Decoy Status

The Decoy Status page shows the status of the Decoys on your network. Use the page to start, stop or delete a decoy. You can also view the decoy's configuration details and copy the decoy template.

We recommend operating Decoy VMs with the same status for expected behavior.

The Decoy Status page displays the following information:

Status	The status of the decoy can be Initializing, Running, Stopped, or Cannot Start. If the Decoy VM cannot start, hover over the VM to see the reason.

Initialize Time and Start Time	The decoy's initialization time and its last start time.
OS	Operating system of the decoy.
VM	The name of the Decoy VM.
