titleCloud collector

The Collector Server is a managed platform that allows running sets of different collectors grouped by Devo domain destinations.

To run an instance of this data collector, the next steps must be followed:

  1. In the Collector Server GUI, access the domain where you want to create this instance, click Add Collector, search for “Cortex XDR - Integrations Factory”, then click on the result.

  2. In the Version field, select the latest value.

  3. In the Collector Name field, set the value you prefer (this name must be unique inside the same Collector Server domain).

  4. In the Parameters section, establish the Collector Parameters as follows below:Collector services detail

Info

Please, replace the placeholders <api_key_value>, <api_key_id_value>, and <api_fqdn_value> in the next section with the values obtained in previous sections of this document, except the <short_unique_identifier> that can have the value you choose. Do not substitute the occurrences of {api_fqdn}.

The value chosen for the id field will be used internally for having independent persistence areas.This section is intended to explain how to proceed with specific actions for services.

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.

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:

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
