In the Select a SQL Server section of the Register a SQL Server wizard, specify the Server Type you want to add to IDERA SQL Secure for auditing.

Users can monitor Always On Availability Groups using IDERA SQL Secure. Note that instead of monitoring the listener, you must monitor each individual node of the Availability Group. This is because the security configurations for each of the different nodes of the Availability Group are not always identical and monitoring only the listener could possibly leave gaps in the security check.
