Configure alphaMountain as an Enrichment Tool
You can configure alphaMountain to enrich domains, IP addresses, and URLs.
Before you Start

Sign in to Intel Exchange, and go to Administration > Enrichment Management > Enrichment Tools.
Search and select the alphaMountain enrichment tool.
Click Add Account and enter the following details:

Click Save.
After successfully adding an account, you can view and enable the domain, IP address, and URL feed enrichment types.
