Module netapp_ontap.resources.security_audit_log_forward

Copyright © 2022 NetApp Inc. All rights reserved.

Overview

This API controls the forwarding of audit log information to remote syslog/splunk servers. Multiple destinations can be configured and all audit records are forwarded to all destinations.
A GET operation retrieves information about remote syslog/splunk server destinations. A POST operation creates a remote syslog/splunk server destination. A GET operation on /security/audit/destinations/{address}/{port} retrieves information about the syslog/splunk server destination given its address and port number. A PATCH operation on /security/audit/destinations/{address}/{port} updates information about the syslog/splunk server destination given its address and port number. A DELETE operation on /security/audit/destinations/{address}/{port} deletes a syslog/splunk server destination given its address and port number.

Classes

class SecurityAuditLogForward (*args, **kwargs)

Allows interaction with SecurityAuditLogForward objects on the host

Initialize the instance of the resource.

Any keyword arguments are set on the instance as properties. For example, if the class was named 'MyResource', then this statement would be true:

MyResource(name='foo').name == 'foo'

Args

*args
Each positional argument represents a parent key as used in the URL of the object. That is, each value will be used to fill in a segment of the URL which refers to some parent object. The order of these arguments must match the order they are specified in the URL, from left to right.
**kwargs
each entry will have its key set as an attribute name on the instance and its value will be the value of that attribute.

Ancestors

Static methods

def count_collection(*args, connection: HostConnection = None, **kwargs) -> int

Fetch a count of all objects of this type from the host.

This calls GET on the object to determine the number of records. It is more efficient than calling get_collection() because it will not construct any objects. Query parameters can be passed in as kwargs to determine a count of objects that match some filtered criteria.

Args

*args
Each entry represents a parent key which is used to build the path to the child object. If the URL definition were /api/foos/{foo.name}/bars, then to get the count of bars for a particular foo, the foo.name value should be passed.
connection
The HostConnection object to use for this API call. If unset, tries to use the connection which is set globally for the library or from the current context.
**kwargs
Any key/value pairs passed will be sent as query parameters to the host. These query parameters can affect the count. A return_records query param will be ignored.

Returns

On success, returns an integer count of the objects of this type. On failure, returns -1.

Raises

NetAppRestError: If the API call returned a status code >= 400, or if there is no connection available to use either passed in or on the library.

def delete_collection(*args, records: Iterable[_ForwardRef('SecurityAuditLogForward')] = None, body: Union[Resource, dict] = None, poll: bool = True, poll_interval: Union[int, NoneType] = None, poll_timeout: Union[int, NoneType] = None, connection: HostConnection = None, **kwargs) -> NetAppResponse

Deletes remote syslog/splunk server information.

Delete all objects in a collection which match the given query.

All records on the host which match the query will be deleted.

Args

*args
Each entry represents a parent key which is used to build the path to the child object. If the URL definition were /api/foos/{foo.name}/bars, then to delete the collection of bars for a particular foo, the foo.name value should be passed.
records
Can be provided in place of a query. If so, this list of objects will be deleted from the host.
body
The body of the delete request. This could be a Resource instance or a dictionary object.
poll
If set to True, the call will not return until the asynchronous job on the host has completed. Has no effect if the host did not return a job response.
poll_interval
If the operation returns a job, this specifies how often to query the job for updates.
poll_timeout
If the operation returns a job, this specifies how long to continue monitoring the job's status for completion.
connection
The HostConnection object to use for this API call. If unset, tries to use the connection which is set globally for the library or from the current context.
**kwargs
Any key/value pairs passed will be sent as query parameters to the host. Only resources matching this query will be deleted.

Returns

A NetAppResponse object containing the details of the HTTP response.

Raises

NetAppRestError: If the API call returned a status code >= 400

def find(*args, connection: HostConnection = None, **kwargs) -> Resource

Defines a remote syslog/splunk server for sending audit information to.

Learn more


Find an instance of an object on the host given a query.

The host will be queried with the provided key/value pairs to find a matching resource. If 0 are found, None will be returned. If more than 1 is found, an error will be raised or returned. If there is exactly 1 matching record, then it will be returned.

Args

*args
Each entry represents a parent key which is used to build the path to the child object. If the URL definition were /api/foos/{foo.name}/bars, then to find a bar for a particular foo, the foo.name value should be passed.
connection
The HostConnection object to use for this API call. If unset, tries to use the connection which is set globally for the library or from the current context.
**kwargs
Any key/value pairs passed will be sent as query parameters to the host.

Returns

A Resource object containing the details of the object or None if no matches were found.

Raises

NetAppRestError: If the API call returned more than 1 matching resource.

def get_collection(*args, connection: HostConnection = None, max_records: int = None, **kwargs) -> Iterable[Resource]

Defines a remote syslog/splunk server for sending audit information to.

Learn more


Fetch a list of all objects of this type from the host.

This is a lazy fetch, making API calls only as necessary when the result of this call is iterated over. For instance, if max_records is set to 5, then iterating over the collection causes an API call to be sent to the server once for every 5 records. If the client stops iterating before getting to the 6th record, then no additional API calls are made.

Args

*args
Each entry represents a parent key which is used to build the path to the child object. If the URL definition were /api/foos/{foo.name}/bars, then to get the collection of bars for a particular foo, the foo.name value should be passed.
connection
The HostConnection object to use for this API call. If unset, tries to use the connection which is set globally for the library or from the current context.
max_records
The maximum number of records to return per call
**kwargs
Any key/value pairs passed will be sent as query parameters to the host.

Returns

A list of Resource objects

Raises

NetAppRestError: If there is no connection available to use either passed in or on the library. This would be not be raised when get_collection() is called, but rather when the result is iterated.

Ancestors

  • netapp_ontap.resource.ResourceSchema
  • marshmallow.schema.Schema
  • marshmallow.base.SchemaABC

Class variables

address GET POST

Destination syslog|splunk host to forward audit records to. This can be an IP address (IPv4|IPv6) or a hostname.

facility GET POST PATCH

This is the standard Syslog Facility value that is used when sending audit records to a remote server.

Valid choices:

  • kern
  • user
  • local0
  • local1
  • local2
  • local3
  • local4
  • local5
  • local6
  • local7
port GET POST

Destination Port. The default port depends on the protocol chosen: For un-encrypted destinations the default port is 514. For encrypted destinations the default port is 6514.

protocol GET POST

Log forwarding protocol

Valid choices:

  • udp_unencrypted
  • tcp_unencrypted
  • tcp_encrypted
verify_server GET POST PATCH

This is only applicable when the protocol is tcp_encrypted. This controls whether the remote server's certificate is validated. Setting "verify_server" to "true" will enforce validation of remote server's certificate. Setting "verify_server" to "false" will not enforce validation of remote server's certificate.
