The NIOS UI provides a mechanism to filter the domains it sends to Cloud Data Connector. Since NIOS is sending cache logs, when configuring NIOS for use with Cloud Data Connector, make sure to configure Cloud Data Connector to exclude internal corporate and authoritative domains (*.<corp domains> or *.<Authoritative Zones>). By excluding corporate and authoritative domains, internal traffic logs will not be added. By excluding corporate and authoritative domains, internal traffic logs will not be added. For the complete list of domains to be excluded, click here.

IP ProtocolPort             SourceIPs and URLs Description
TCP22From NIOS appliance to Data ConnectorIf you deploy Data Connector as a container, ensure that there are no SSH processes listening on port 22. You must terminate these SSH processes for Data Connector to collect data from NIOS.

Open this port if you want to send data using SCP from the Infoblox NIOS appliance (if configured) to Data Connector.

TCP514

From NIOS appliance to Data ConnectorIf you deploy Data Connector as a container, ensure that this port is not used by other processes for Data Connector to collect data from NIOS.

Open this port if you want to send syslogs and secure syslogs for RPZ from the Infoblox NIOS appliance (if configured) to Data Connector. Note: Port 514 is an insecure port.
