Foglight for Application Operations 5.9.8.5 - Dependency Mapping User Guide

Configuring advanced agent settings

To configure the advanced scanning settings:
1
Click Advanced Settings on the toolbar.
2
In the Advanced Scanning Options dialog box, provide the following information:
•
Max scanning depth: indicates the maximum number of hops from a host on the scanning list that a reference-listed host can be for the agent to attempt to collect dependency information about it.
•
Report connection: when selected, the agent collects details about the connections used by each process (including the ports in use), and reports them as part of the monitoring data. This information is shown on the tabular dependency view.
•
Submit detail: if enabled, the agent submits detailed observations about the connections. The connection details are displayed in the Netstat Dependency Detail tab.
•
Exclude agent host: when selected, the agent’s host is excluded from the scanning list.
•
Use sudo to collect process information: when selected, the agent uses the sudo command to collect process information (by default, this check box is selected).
 
* 
NOTE: Some UNIX versions report process information only when sudo is used. The account must be in the sudoers list. This setting does not apply to Windows hosts.

Recommended: set up your system to enable sudo without a password for the netstat command only. This is possible in many environments. For more information, see your operating system reference documentation.
3
Save the new settings to apply them to the selected agent.

Configuring global agent settings

To configure the global scanning settings:
1
Click Global Settings on the toolbar.
2
In the Global Settings area, define the following lists:
•
Excluded List - hosts that should never be scanned by agents when collecting the dependency mapping for this environment. For details, see Configuring the excluded list .
•
Processes List - processes that should always be included or excluded from scanning by all existing or future agents, when collecting the dependency mapping for this environment. For details, see Configuring the processes list .
 
* 
NOTE: For example, you may want to always exclude the backup.exe process from scanning. For include, you are globally limiting the agents to include only the processes specified in these global settings, or the processes which are specifically included in an agent’s settings.
•
Ports List - ports that should always be included or excluded from scanning by all existing or future agents, when collecting the dependency mapping for this environment. For details, see Configuring the ports list .
These global settings are saved and applied to all dependency agents defined in your environment. They are also applied to any future agents, upon creation.
 
Table 10. Excluded List
Column Name
Columns Description

Hosts

IP address, IP address range, or regular expression for the hosts excluded from scanning.

Matching Method

Method used for matching the host(s) included in the list (IPRange, IPAddress, or Regex).

 
Table 11. Processes List
Column Name
Columns Description

Process Pattern

Regular expression for the process name.

Condition

When set to include, the regular expression should be included in the scanning.

When set to exclude, the regular expression should be excluded from the scanning.

 
Table 12. Ports List
Column Name
Columns Description

Port

Port range.

Condition

When set to include, the port range should be included in the scanning.

When set to exclude, the port range should be excluded from the scanning.

Checking credential assignment

Find the credentials that are used when accessing a select host for Netstat monitoring.

To check the credentials assigned to a select host:
1
Click Check Credential Assignment on the toolbar.
The Check Credential Assignment dialog box displays.
2
In the Test for field type the host name or the IP address for the host you want to verify, then click Check.
The system checks if this host is part of the scanning or referenced lists and if any credentials have been already assigned to it, to be used for Netstat monitoring. If it finds any, it displays them in a table format.
3
Continue with one of the following options:
•
If the system finds no credentials defined for this host: Select the host in the Assign a credential to box, then click Assign. The Assign Credentials dialog box appears, with the host’s check box pre-selected. Assign an existing credential to the selected host, or create a new credential for it, by following the procedure presented in section Assigning credentials to select hosts .
•
If the host is part of an IP range specified in the scanning or referenced list, and the range has credentials already defined for it, you have the option of using the IP range’s credential for that host, or create a special credential just for that host:
•
To use the IP range’s credentials, select the range in the Assign a credential to box, then click Assign. The Assign Credentials dialog box appears, with the range’s check box pre-selected. Assign an existing credential to all hosts in this range, by following the procedure presented in section Assigning credentials to select hosts .
•
To create a new credential for that host, other than the one already defined for the range it is part of, select the host in the Assign a credential to box, then click Assign. The Assign Credentials dialog box appears, with the host listed under “Unconfigured List”. Create a new credential for this host by following the procedure presented in section Assigning credentials to select hosts .
•
If the system finds several credentials defined for this host, these credentials are presented in order of their rank in the results table. You can edit the rank in the Credential Management dashboard. To assign an existing credential to the selected host, or create a new credential for it, select the host in the Assign a credential to box, then click Assign. The Assign Credentials dialog box appears, with the check box for this host already pre-selected. Continue by following the procedure presented in section Assigning credentials to select hosts .

Assigning credentials to select hosts

To assign credential to select hosts:
1
Click Assign Credentials on the toolbar.
2
On the Assign Credentials dialog box, select the host or range of hosts to which you want to assign credentials by selecting their check boxes.
 
* 
IMPORTANT: You can assign credentials to individual hosts (by selecting just one host at the time), or to multiple hosts (by selecting all hosts and range of hosts that share the same credentials).
3
To use the credentials for the Windows domain, select the Use Windows domain credentials check box.
4
Click Assign Credentials.
The Configure Credential wizard appears.
5
Continue with the procedure presented in section Configuring the agent credentials .
At the end of this procedure, the selected hosts are attached to existing or new credentials, as needed.
