The remote collector deployment should assist in 2 scenarios:
...
In order to setup a new Remote Collector server you will need to install another new DPOD server based on the prerequisites below. The Node that will contain the Data and the console will be called "Local Node" and the second installation (contains only the Syslog and WS-M agent) will be called "remote collector".
Prerequisites
- Two DPOD installations The DPOD "manager" and FCM must be with the same version (minimum version is v1.0.9.7 0 )
- The remote collector DPOD installations should be configured with the DPOD "manager" can be both "Appliance Mode" or "Non appliance Mode" installation with "medium" architecture type as detailed in the Hardware and Software Requirements
- Each installation will requires some different ports DPOD FCM should be "Non appliance Mode" installation with "High_20dv with High Load" architecture type as detailed in the Hardware and Software Requirements
- Each cluster component (manager / FCM ) should have two network interfaces :
- External interface - for DPOD users to access UI and for communication between DPOD and Monitored Gateways.
- Internal Interface - for internal DPOD components communication (should be 10GB Ethernet interface, for more information see configuring FCM)
- Each installation will requires some different ports to be opened in the firewall - see table 1
- There are no requirements regarding the Environment name of each DPOD installation
- The two DPODs need to be able to communicate with each other and with the monitored DataPower devices
Setup steps
In order to configure the local node and remote collector(s), run the following script in the local node once per remote collector .
...
The defaults are port 60000 for the initial syslog agents port and 60020 for the initial WSM agents port
Output
Example for a successful execution - note that the script writes two log file, one in the local node and one in the remote collector, the log file names are mentioned in the script's output.
...
Also, the new agents will be shown in the agents in the Manage → Internal Health → Agents page.
For example, we have one local node with two agents and two remote collectors with two agents each, the page will show six agents:
Configure The Monitored Device to Remote Collector's Agents
It is possible to configure entire monitored device to remote collector's agent or just a specific domain.
To configure monitored device / specific domain please follow instructions on Adding Monitored Devices

We recommend using the script described in the previous section. |
