QRadar Event Collector 1501 M5 appliance
The IBM® QRadar® Event Collector 1501 (MTM 4412-Q4D) appliance is a dedicated event collector. By default, a dedicated event collector collects and parses event from various log sources and continuously forwards these events to an event processor. You can configure the QRadar Event Collector 1501 appliance to temporarily store events and only forward the stored events on a schedule. A dedicated event collector does not process events and it does not include an on-board event processor.
