Configuration

The OpenDXL Nmap Service application requires a set of configuration files to operate.

This distribution contains a config sub-directory that includes the configuration files that must be populated prior to running the application.

Each of these files are documented throughout the remained of this page.

Application configuration directory:

config/
    dxlclient.config
    dxlnmapservice.config
    logging.config (optional)

DXL Client Configuration File (dxlclient.config)

The required dxlclient.config file is used to configure the DXL client that will connect to the DXL fabric.

The steps to populate this configuration file are the same as those documented in the OpenDXL Python SDK, see the OpenDXL Python SDK Samples Configuration page for more information.

The following is an example of a populated DXL client configuration file:

[Certs]
BrokerCertChain=c:\\certificates\\brokercerts.crt
CertFile=c:\\certificates\\client.crt
PrivateKey=c:\\certificates\\client.key

[Brokers]
{5d73b77f-8c4b-4ae0-b437-febd12facfd4}={5d73b77f-8c4b-4ae0-b437-febd12facfd4};8883;mybroker;192.168.1.12
{24397e4d-645f-4f2f-974f-f98c55bdddf7}={24397e4d-645f-4f2f-974f-f98c55bdddf7};8883;mybroker2;192.168.1.13

OpenDXL Nmap Service (dxlnmapservice.config)

The required dxlnmapservice.config file is used to configure the application.

Logging File (logging.config)

The optional logging.config file is used to configure how the application writes log messages.
