Security Profile

Min Connections Per Destination

Specify the minimum number of connections towards an endpoint (identified by host:port) that the agent will try to maintain. A value of 0 indicates "no minimum". This is not a hard limit as there could be more connections created during the spike in traffic. For more details see Algorithm for Minimum Connections.

Min Connections Per Destination Check Interval (s)

Specify how often you wish to check the established connections. A value of 0 indicates "no check will be performed". After each interval, the agent will try to create additional connections to achieve number set in the Min Connections Per Destination parameter. No connections will be shut down if the current number of connections is greater than the number set in Min Connections Per Destination. For more details, see Algorithm for Minimum Connections.

Default connection concurrent streams

The initial value of concurrent streams that the client would like to handle per connection. The default value is 1000.

Max Response Content Length (MB)

Specify the maximum length for response content. The default value is 8MB.

Timeout

Request Timeout (sec)

Enter the timeout period in seconds for the request to the HTTP/2 client to wait for a response before timing out.

Queue Settings

Max Requests Queued Per Destination

The size of the message queue in the Jetty server. The default value is 20000.

Retry Interval For full Queues (ms)

A millisecond value to indicate the time it will take for the request to try again when the queue is full.

Max Retries For Full Queue

When the Route Error UDR option is checked, this field will be enabled. This field will indicate how many times the request will attempt to retry before routing it to Error UDR.

Route Error UDR

if this option is selected, the request will attempt to be received by the agent until it reached the maximum amount of retries. Once the threshold is reached, the request will be stored in an Error UDR and sent as an output from the HTTP/2 client agent. If this option is not selected, the request will attempt the retries for an indefinite amount of time, until the workflow is terminated.

Server Monitor

Use HTTP2 Server Monitor

Select this option to monitor the connection status of all servers that the agent has sent requests to. The monitoring is done by sending regular ping messages to the servers. If the servers are not responding, or there are other communication errors, they will be indicated as Unavailable. A list of the Available and Unavailable servers are available in two MIM values: Available Servers and Unreachable Servers.

Ping Interval (s)

Define the ping message interval for the Server Monitor. The time unit is seconds and 10 seconds is default.

Grant Type

Select the grant type:

• Client Credentials
  The agent fetches the access token from the Access Token URI during initialization, using client id and client secret for basic authentication. The credentials are base64 encoded and sent in the header of the request.
  The response contains an access token, which is then used in subsequent requests.

• Resource Owner Password Credentials

  The agent fetches the access token from the Access Token URI during initialization, using the following credentials for authentication:

  • Client ID

  • Client Secret

  • Username

  • Password

  The credentials are sent in the body of the request. The response contains an access token, which is then used in subsequent requests. 

Client ID

Enter the unique client identifier issued by the authorization server.

Client Secret

Enter the client's secret.

Username

Enter the resource owner username, this can be the end-user granting access to a protected resource. This field is required when you have selected Resource Owner Password Credentials from the drop-down list Grant Type.

Password

Enter the password associated with the username. This field is required when you have selected Resource Owner Password Credentials from the drop-down list Grant Type.

Access Token URI

Enter the URI where the access token can be obtained.

Token expiration override (sec)

Enter a time in seconds when you would like to refresh the access token prior to the expiration. This allows the application to obtain a new access token without the user's interaction. 

Additional Parameters

Some authentication servers may require additional parameters in the body of the token requests. To add a parameter, click the Add button and then enter the name of the parameter in the Key field and the value of the parameter in the Value field.

Do not use escape characters in the value field, these will be added automatically by the HTTP2 Client agent. For instance, "https://example.com/" will be sent as "https%3A%2F%2example.com%2F".
