Polling interval

Defines the interval in minutes for polling the threat intelligence feed database.

The database version is provided by the threat intelligence service and updated every time a differential update has been loaded from the threat intelligence feed. The database version indicates the status of the IP Address Lists obtained from Webroot.

Use proxy

Enables a proxy for connections to the Webroot feed.

Proxy Host

Functional limitation
  • The proxy server must support tunneling via the HTTP CONNECT method. Intercepting proxies are not supported.
  • In case the proxy server utilizes IPv6, use the IPv6 address as the hostname.

Proxy Port

Specifies the HTTPS proxy server port.

Username

Specifies the username used to authenticate with the proxy.

Specifies the password used to authenticate with the proxy.

 
Info

To test the connectivity to the Webroot Threat Intelligence service login into Airlock Gateway with SSH as user root and execute the following cURL command:

curl -I api-dualstack.bcti.brightcloud.com

In case you use a proxy server, execute this cURL command::

curl -Ix http://user:password@proxyhost:port api-dualstack.bcti.brightcloud.com

If the connectivity test is successful, the server responds with HTTP/1.1 200 OK.

Logging

All interaction with the Webroot threat intelligence feed are logged as part of the normal operation of Airlock Gateway. To find the log entries in the Log search for the “program” with the name “ip-info-service”.
