titleOn-premise collector

This data collector can be run in any machine that has the Docker service available because it should be executed as a docker container. The following sections explain how to prepare all the required setup for having the data collector running.

Structure

The following directory structure should be created for being used when running the collector:

Code Block
<any_directory>
└── devo-collectors/
    └── <product_name>/
        ├── certs/
        │   ├── chain.crt
        │   ├── <your_domain>.key
        │   └── <your_domain>.crt
        ├── state/
        └── config/ 
            └── config.yaml 
Note

Replace <product_name> with the proper value.

Devo credentials

In Devo, go to Administration → Credentials → X.509 Certificates, download the Certificate, Private key and Chain CA and save them in <product_name>/certs/. Learn more about security credentials in Devo here.

Note

Replace <product_name> with the proper value.

Editing the config.yaml file

Code Block

Info

All defined service entities will be executed by the collector. If you do not want to run any of them, just remove the entity from the services object.

Replace the placeholders with your required values following the description table below:

Parameter

Data type

Type

Value range / Format

Details

<short_unique_id>

int

Mandatory

Minimum Lenght 5

Use this param to give a unique id to this input service.

Note

This parameter is used to build the persistence address, do not use the same value for multiple collectors. It could cause a collision.

<input_status>

bool

Mandatory

false / true

Use this param to enable or disable the given input logic when running the collector. If the value is true, the input will be run. If the value is false, it will be ignored.

<username_value>

str

Mandatory

Minimum Length 1

Provide the value of username used for authentication

<password_value>

str

Mandatory

Minimum Length 1

Provide the value of password used for authentication

<start_time_in_utc_format>

str

Mandatory

Minimum Length 1

%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ

This configuration allows you to set a custom date as the beginning of the period to download. This allows the events but it can’t be more than 7 days in the past.

<override_tag_value>

str

Optional

A devo tag

This parameter allows to define a custom devo tag.

Download the Docker image

The collector should be deployed as a Docker container. Download the Docker image of the collector as a .tgz file by clicking the link in the following table:

Collector Docker image

SHA-256 hash

collector-proofpoint_tap_if-docker-image-2.12.10

5e276b2a1bf4257949975b0b8cc07663fcb71aa89f2eb96f49c46efec92cf06524ce4dd537882b68a395571eca3b0018fd2e6de6f2d432400c08b4228e5788e2

Use the following command to add the Docker image to the system:

Code Block
gunzip -c <image_file>-<version>.tgz | docker load
Note

Once the Docker image is imported, it will show the real name of the Docker image (including version info). Replace <image_file> and <version> with a proper value.

The Docker image can be deployed on the following services:

Docker

Execute the following command on the root directory <any_directory>/devo-collectors/<product_name>/

Code Block
docker run 
--name collector-<product_name> 
--volume $PWD/certs:/devo-collector/certs 
--volume $PWD/config:/devo-collector/config 
--volume $PWD/state:/devo-collector/state 
--env CONFIG_FILE=config.yaml 
--rm 
--interactive 
--tty 
<image_name>:<version>
Note

Replace <product_name>, <image_name> and <version> with the proper values.

Docker Compose

The following Docker Compose file can be used to execute the Docker container. It must be created in the <any_directory>/devo-collectors/<product_name>/ directory.

Code Block
version: '3'
services:
  collector-<product_name>:
    image: <image_name>:${IMAGE_VERSION:-latest}
    container_name: collector-<product_name>
    volumes:
      - ./certs:/devo-collector/certs
      - ./config:/devo-collector/config
      - ./credentials:/devo-collector/credentials
      - ./state:/devo-collector/state
    environment:
      - CONFIG_FILE=${CONFIG_FILE:-config.yaml}

To run the container using docker-compose, execute the following command from the <any_directory>/devo-collectors/<product_name>/ directory:

Code Block
IMAGE_VERSION=<version> docker-compose up -d
Note

Replace <product_name>, <image_name> and <version> with the proper values.
