Configuring the Unified API

This section describes how to configure the unified API through the PCF Ops Center.

PCF receive NAP requests to requery the LDAP and reevaluate policies after receiving notification about profile change from NAP, so the new policies are applied. PCF receives the NAP requests through the unified API ingress endpoint.

To configure the unified API, use the following configuration in the Policy Ops Center console:

config 
  api unified          
    engine-group engine_group_name 
    external-port external_ip 
    externalIPs external_ip 
    end 

NOTES:

  • api unified —Enter the unified API configuration mode.

  • engine-group engine_group_name —Specify the PCF engine's group name.

  • external-port port_number —(Optional) Specify the service to be accessed using an external IP instead of an Ingress endpoint. Specifies the external port number to expose the unified API endpoint.

  • externalIPs external_ip —(Optional) Specify the service to be accessed using an external IP instead of an Ingress endpoint. Specifies the IP address for the external endpoint.
