Web UI

The DSG Web UI is a collection of DSG-specific UI screens under Cloud Gateway menu that are part of the ESA Web UI. The Cloud Gateway menu is enabled after the ESA patch for Cloud Gateway is installed in ESA.

The ESA dashboard is as seen in the following figure.

The Cloud Gateway menu contains the following sub-menus:

• Cluster

  • Monitoring: View all the nodes in a cluster. Add, delete, start, stop, and apply patches to node(s) in the cluster.
  • Log Viewer: View consolidated logs across all DSG nodes.

• Ruleset

  • Ruleset: View the hierarchical set of rules. The rules are defined for each profile that is created under a service.
  • Learn Mode: View the hierarchical processing of a rule that is affected due to a triggered transaction request or response.

• Transport

  • Certificates: View the certificates generated by or uploaded to the DSG.
  • Tunnels: View the list of protocol-specific tunnels configured on the DSG.

• Global Settings

  • Debug: Configure log settings, Learn mode settings, and set configurations that enable administrative queries.
  • Global Protocol Stack: Apart from the settings that you configure for each service type, some settings affect all services that relate to a protocol type.
  • Web UI: The Web UI tab lets you configure additional settings that impact how the UI is displayed.

• Test Utilities: The test utilities provide an interface where you can select the data security operation you want to perform, along with the DSG node, data elements available in the policies deployed at that node, and an external IV value for added security layer. This menu is available only for users with the policy user permission.

Note: The Tunnel and Ruleset configurations can be created on ESA and DSG. However, it is recommended to create the Tunnel and Ruleset configurations on the ESA. This allows the same configuration to be pushed simultaneously to all the ESA and DSG nodes in the cluster. If these configurations are created only on DSG, it can be overridden by the configuration created on the ESA.
