To edit sources for Data Connector traffic flows, do the following:

  1. Log in to the Infoblox Portal.
  2. Click Configure > Integrations > Data Connector.
  3. Select the Source Configuration tab, select the source configuration to be edited, and click Edit.
  4. In the Edit NIOS Source Configuration wizard, do the following:
    • Name: Provide a name that will distinguish this source from others.
    • Description: Provide a description that does not exceed 256 characters.
    • State: Use the slider to enable or disable the source’s configuration, which will be in effect only after you enable it; if you disable it, you will not be able to select this source when you create a traffic flow.

    • Tags: Click Add and specify the following to associate a key with the source:

      • KEY: Enter a meaningful name for the key, such as a location or department.  

      • VALUE: Enter a value for the key. For details, see Managing Tags.

    • Source Data Type: Select the type of source data you want the Data Connector to collect from this source.

The Data Connector supports specific traffic flows for specific source data. When you configure this source in a traffic flow, be sure to select a supported destination in your traffic flows. For details, see Supported Traffic Flows.

    • CREDENTIALS FOR GRID MASTER CONFIGURATION:
      • FQDN/IP: Enter the FQDN or the IP address of the source.
      • User Name: Enter the user name for the source credentials. The Data Connector uses this entry to access the source appliance.
      • Password: Enter the password for the source credentials. The Data Connector uses this password to access the source appliance.
      • Insecure Mode: If you do not upload a CA certificate, this checkbox will be selected by default, the user-provided credentials will not be encrypted, and Data Connector will perform authentication by using just the credentials.
      • CA Certificate: Click Select file to upload the CA-signed certificate for the NIOS appliance. If the certificate is valid, then Data Connector will secure the connection by using the credentials as well as the certificate.
    • SCP CREDENTIALS FOR DNS QUERY LOGS TRANSFER: To allow the transfer of query and response log data, you must give Data Connector the access it needs to collect this data through SCP. In SCP CREDENTIALS FOR DNS QUERY LOGS TRANSFER, provide the following information:
      • User Name: Enter the user name used to access the SCP server. Data Connector uses SCP to communicate with the source.
      • Password: Enter the password for the SCP server.
    • Certificate for RPZ Logs: If you select RPZ Logs as the type of source data, you must upload the security certificate for the Data Connector to access the RPZ logs. In Certificate for RPZ Logs, click Select file and navigate to the RPZ certificate to be uploaded.

Users can use the certificates provided by their organizations. To view an example of how to create a self-signed certificate for viewing RPZ logs, see Creating a Self-Signed Certificate for RPZ Log.
