# This is the default system configuration file

#
# ALL configuration that uses the centralised

# This is a working sample configuration, which
# aims to provide a working "out of the box"
# setup, aswell as a some example configuration.

############################################################
#### Configuration Files & Groups
############################################################

# All components, such as hosts, will take their configuration
# as given in this file. Unless, that is, they have an extra
# configuration file specified here, or they're in a group
# that has a configuration file. If this is the case the extra
# configuration will override what is given in this file.

# We can define an extra configuration file for any component
# of the system. This is done by specifying the following:
#
# config.component=someconfigfile.conf
#
# Component names will be defined in the documentation for
# the component. An example is that a host component is
# known by the name "Host.hostname" or "Host.ip".
# It is also possible to use the wildcard "*" in a
# hostname or IP address.

# This defines that server.example.com has some extra
# configuration in the file 'server.conf'.
config.Host.server.example.com=exserver.conf

# All webservers are placed in a group named 'www'.
group.www=Host.www1.example.com;Host.www2.example.com
# Then we define some extra config for them.
config.www=webservers.conf

# Our workstations are in their own subnet.
group.workstations=Host.192.168.10.*;
# They can have their own config too.
config.workstations=workstations.conf

# Any hosts not specified by now have the default
# config as given in this file.


############################################################
#### Misc system-wide configuration
############################################################

# The ConfigurationProxy caches configuration for various
# parts of the server. This setting defines how often, in
# seconds, the proxy will check if the data it contains
# is still valid.
ConfigurationProxy.updateTime=60

# The internal Queue's can be monitored. This specifies
# the interval, in seconds, at which their state should
# be monitored.
Queue.MonitorInterval=300
# The maximum size a Queue can be before items are
# dropped when new ones arrive.
Queue.SizeLimit=1000
# And which items we should drop when the queue is full
# and new items arrive. Choices are:
# RANDOM - drop a random item from the queue
# FIRST  - drop the first item from the queue
# LAST   - drop the last item from the queue
# DROP   - drop the new item from the queue
Queue.RemoveAlgorithm=FIRST

# The XMLCache caches data passing through the system.
# This setting specifies the time, in seconds, at which
# the caches contents will be rotated. In real terms
# this means the minimum age at which an XMLPacket can
# be before it is up for deletion from the cache.
XMLCache.cleanupPeriod=30


############################################################
#### FilterManager configuration
############################################################

# The FilterManager accepts connections from hosts
# upon startup. It provides them with configuration
# and details of which filter to talk to. This setting
# specifies which port (TCP) it listens on.
FilterManager.listenPort=4567

# An Access Control List for the FilterManager. One
# might consider something like this:
#
# FilterManager.ACL=DEFAULT:DENY;*.example.com:ALLOW
FilterManager.ACL=DEFAULT:ALLOW


############################################################
#### Filter configuration
############################################################

# A Filter accepts data from hosts on a UDP port. It is
# specified here.
Filter.UDPListenPort=4589

# Filters contain plugins for checking the data passing
# through them. This plugins do the job of "filtering".
# This setting specifies the java package they're
# contained in.
Filter.PluginsPackage=uk.org.iscream.cms.server.filter.plugins
# And the names of the plugins to be loaded.
Filter.Plugins=TypeChecker;EnforceEssentialData;SourceChecker

# Every Filter, except the root, needs a parent to
# send their data to. This is usually the root filter,
# although in more complex setups it might be another
# filter - giving a tree structure.
Filter.parentFilter=root

# A Filter can accept data through UDP, or from
# an upstream Filter (CORBA). These methods can be
# individually turned of on a filter. The default
# is to have them all on.
# (comment or set to 0 to disable)
Filter.ActivateUDPReader=1
Filter.ActivateCORBAReader=1

# We can also specify Access Control Lists for the
# UDP input of the Filters. One might want something
# restrictive like this:
#
# Filter.UDPACL=DEFAULT:DENY;*.example.com:ALLOW
Filter.UDPACL=DEFAULT:ALLOW

# A Filter plugin called the SourceChecker verifies
# that packets come from permitted hosts. It is
# given an ACL to check the hosts against. A possible
# ACL might be:
#
# Filter.SourceCheckerPluginACL=DEFAULT:DENY;*.example.com:ALLOW
Filter.SourceCheckerPluginACL=DEFAULT:ALLOW


############################################################
#### Root filter configuration
############################################################

# The special filter known as the "Root Filter" needs
# a name within the system.
RootFilter.name=root


############################################################
#### Client interface configuration
############################################################

# The client interface listens for connections from clients
# on a TCP port. It is specified here.
ClientInterface.listenPort=4510

# The client interface needs to connect to another one to
# receive data. There is a special client interface in the
# root filter which is the top of the tree.
ClientInterface.parent=root

# The Client Interface has two channels, control and data.
# Each of these can have an ACL for allowing connections.
# As per previous examples in this configuration file they
# could be set restrictively, but we'll leave them open
# by default
ClientInterface.TCPControlChannelACL=DEFAULT:ALLOW
ClientInterface.TCPDataChannelACL=DEFAULT:ALLOW


############################################################
#### LocalClient Configuration
############################################################

# The parent for the Local Client
Client.parent=clientinterface1


############################################################
#### Host Configuration
############################################################

# A host can use any filter. We'll set the default filter
# for all hosts to be 'filter1'. This can be a list.
Host.filter=filter1;

# Hosts send data every UDPUpdateTime, in seconds.
Host.UDPUpdateTime=60

# How long a hosts config is valid for (a TTL effectively)
# after this time, in seconds, has passed a host should
# consider it's configuration invalid and check for a new
# configuration as soon as it can.
Host.ConfigTTL=3600

# We can run service checks on a host. The java package
# which contains them is specified here.
Host.serviceChecksPackage=uk.org.iscream.cms.server.filter.plugins

#### Monitor Configuration
############################################################
