Management Console settings
These settings can be used to connect Agents to the Management Console using config file. Server settings are automatically inserted into config file once you click the "Generate Client Config" button.
- MC connection port is 8444 by default. It can be changed by adjusting Console config.
- MC certificate fingerprint is unique to each MC installation and is used to authenticate Server once Agent attempts to connect.
- Bootstrap token allows the server to authenticate clients. Read more about bootstrap token.
Advanced settings include these options:
- Background tab timeout: timeout after which the inactive tab with MC UI will be unloaded from memory. Returning to this tab will mean reloading the whole page again.
- Custom trusted CA certificates: applies to all external connections from Management Console to remote services like SMTP server, LDAP, webhooks which make use of signed certificates.
- File query timeout: applies to File query functionality for the query to automatically abort if executing it on the Agent side takes long.
- Identify agent by name: by default Agent takes its name after computer name, at the same time it has a random ID generated after installation and first launch. This setting means that even if the Agent is reinstalled on computer, it won't connect to MC as new agent. If the option is enabled, the deleted Agent cannot reconnect to MC anymore (read more about deleted Agents here)
- Job runs ttl: in milliseconds by default, value 1209600000 is 14 days. This is how long old job runs are kept in Console's database. The longer they are there, the bigger database grows.
- Jobs ttl: in milliseconds by default, value 0 is 'never delete'. Jobs that were completed earlier than configured ttl, or jobs that were created earlier than ttl but were never launched will deleted from MC.
- Key token lifetime: in seconds, default is 86400sec, which is 1 day. Minimal value supported is 5 minutes. Agent-to-agent encryption token will expire after that time, Agents that haven't received the new token from MC will disconnect from other Agents. Read more here. Key token lifetime must always be higher than double value of Key token overlap. Otherwise behavior is undefined and leads to Agent's instability.
- Key token overlap: in seconds, default is 10800sec which is 3 hours. Maximum supported value is 24 hours. Period for which the two tokens - current and new one - overlap and continue to work until all Agents receive the new token from the MC. The Key Token Lifetime must always be more than double the value of the Key Token Overlap. Failing to adhere to this rule results in undefined behavior, leading to the Agent instability..
-
Management Console address: is the Management Console address as used in SMTP server, and will be alter used in e-mail body. Use DNS name for MC to be reached out through it, otherwise IP address will be used by default. Be sure to put https protocol.
- Management Console log level: by default it's 'debug'. Verbose is the most detailed level at which Console keeps record of its activity and is mainly needed for support team. The more detailed level is, the more logs are recorded.
- User session idle timeout: default 1440 minutes (24h).User session expiration timeout since last activity.
