store ldap-mapping

Store LDAP-mapping parameters - allow a custom mapping for the LDAP server schema. This command permits customized mapping to the LDAP server schema for email, firstname and lastname attributes. The paging parameter is used to facilitate transfer between any LDAP server type (Active Directory, Novell Directory, Open LDAP, Sun One Directory, Tivoli® Directory). If the paging parameter is set to on, but paging is not supported by the server, the search is performed without paging.

Example for paging. If the CLI command, ldap-mapping paging is set to ON, then Microsoft Active Directory will download the maximum number users defined under the limit value on the LDAP Import configuration screen. If CLI command, ldap-mapping paging is set to OFF, then Active Directory will download up to only 1000 users not matter what the limit value is set to. All other LDAP server configurations must use the CLI command, ldap-mapping paging off in order to download users up to the set limit value.

Note: Each time you change the CLI ldap-mapping attributes you also need to select Override Existing Changes on the LDAP Import configuration screen in IBM Guardium GUI before updating. This action must occur each time you change the CLI ldap-mapping email, firstname or lastname attributes and import LDAP users.

store s2c

Sets several configurable parameters for ADMINCONSOLE. These parameters are used for throttling server-to-client (S2C) traffic.

See also the CLI command Store Throttle.

Syntax

store s2c

USAGE: store s2c ignore I maxrate M maxinterval T where 0<=I<=3 (level),  0<=M<=2147483647 (K/sec), and 1<=T<=2147483647 (seconds) OR store throttle default.

>store s2c ignore 3 maxrate 300 maxinterval 5007

The new configuration will take effect after you run the restart inspection-core,CLI command.

Show command

show s2c

Throttle S2C parameters (defaults):

         Ignore:         0

         Max rate:      999999

         Max interval:  30

-------------------

ANALYZER_S2C_IGNORE (0,1,2,3) - Switch s2c throttling mechanisms on/off based on scenarios. This flag is based on bits. 0 = the s2c throttling mechanism is OFF. 1 = turns on the function described in scenario 1, 2 = turns on the function described by scenario 2. 3 = turns both on.

MAX_S2C_VELOCITY - maximal rate (K bytes/sec). If this rate is exceeded, then analyzer should send CLI commands, ignore session, or ignore session reply, request to S-TAP® or sniffer.

MAX_S2C_INTERVAL - time interval in seconds (default 30 sec.) between possible CLI commands, ignore session, or ignore session reply, requests.

Scenario 1

The sniffer starts to receive traffic from S-TAP or network in the middle of large query. Since all incoming packets are DB server responses, no new session will be created by the analyzer and therefore no information will be sent to logger and rules engine. This type of traffic is useless for the sniffer. From the other side, this type of traffic can create additional S-TAP and sniffer loads.

A throttling mechanism helps to decrease S-TAP and network sniffer load by sending an ignore session message from the analyzer, if the S2C velocity is greater than MAX_S2C_VELOCITY. If, for some reason, S-TAP or network sniffer were not affected, then the analyzer sends ignore session request again after MAX_S2C_INTERVAL seconds. In order to switch this throttling mechanism on, set ANALYZER_S2C_IGNORE flag to 1.

Scenario 2

If the incoming traffic has a high S2C rate (>MAX_S2C_VELOCITY), then a throttling mechanism sends a ignore session reply request to S-TAP for local database connections in the case when S2C velocity is greater than MAX_S2C_VELOCITY. If from some reason S-TAP was not affected, then analyzer will send the ignore session reply request again after MAX_S2C_INTERVAL seconds. In order to switch this throttling mechanism on, set ANALYZER_S2C_IGNORE flag to 2.

store throttle

This CLI command stores the throttle parameters. After entering this command, you must issue the CLI command, restart inspection-core for the changes to take effect.

This command is used to filter out (ignore) large packets. Throttling has two modes: Thresholds, per session - ignore sessions when identifying a long enough burst (duration configurable) of large packets (size configurable) and stop ignoring the session when traffic goes under a certain threshold (also configurable); and, Overall - ignore all packets larger than a certain size (configurable) in all sessions. This throttling mode completely ignores long and excessive non-database packets smaller than a predefined size (useful for VNC clients and other types of white-noise traffic). Use for network traffic through SPAM port or hardware TAP. For S-TAP traffic, only network TCP traffic picked up by PCAP. See also the CLI command, store s2c.

Syntax

store throttle [default | size <s> interval <i> trigger <t> release <r>]

USAGE:   store throttle size S interval I trigger T release R

         where 0<=S<=2^17 (bytes), 1<=I,T,R,<=2^31 (seconds)
