Resolving hostnames to IP addresses

SPS configuration requires you to set IP addresses as values. Resolve the hostname of a computer or server with the /hosts-by-name endpoint to receive the list of all related IP addresses that you can use for configuration.

NOTE: The protocol parameter can only take the following two values: TCP and UDP. Anything else will return an error message.

URL
POST https://<IP-address-of-SPS>/api/tools/hosts-by-name
Cookies
Cookie name Description Required Values
session_id Contains the authentication token of the user Required

The value of the session ID cookie received from the REST server in the authentication response, for example, a1f71d030e657634730b9e887cb59a5e56162860. For details on authentication, see Authenticate to the SPS REST API.

NOTE: This session ID refers to the connection between the REST client and the SPS REST API. It is not related to the sessions that SPS records (and which also have a session ID, but in a different format)..

Sample request

The following command resolves the hostname to IP addresses.

curl -X POST -b "${COOKIE_PATH}" https://<IP-address-of-SPS>/api/tools/hosts-by-name
{
     "hostname": "example.org",

SPS closes idle sessions after a period of inactivity. This value shows the number of seconds left until the timeout. For details on setting the session timeout, see Web interface.

HTTP response codes

HTTP response codes comprise of standard or endpoint-specific HTTP status and error codes. The following table lists the endpoint-specific HTTP response codes for this request.

HTTP response code Status/Error Description
400

TransactionMustBeClosed

The user attempted to test a LDAP server while a transaction was open (for example, there were pending configuration changes while the test was attempted).

Commit or roll back the transaction before testing the LDAP server.

400

NoSuchLDAPServer

There are no LDAP servers configured with the identifier specified in the request:

--data '{"key": "<invalid value>"}'

Make sure that you use a valid key from the list of configured LDAP servers.

This can also occur if you attempt to test an AAA LDAP server using the /ldaptest/policies endpoint or vice versa.

400

LDAPServerWithNoBindPassword

You can connect to a LDAP server using a bind DN (bind_dn) and a bind password (bind_password). These credentials are used for authentication. Normally, you need both credentials to make a successful connection, so that access to the LDAP server can be controlled. Some LDAP servers might be configured to allow so-called anonymous connections, meaning that there is no access control whatsoever and anybody can connect to that server. To test such a connection, there must be no credentials configured for that LDAP server.

  • valid: a bind_dn and a bind_password are both configured, or there is no bind_dn and no bind_password

  • invalid: there is a bind_dn, but no bind_password, or there is a bind_password, but no bind_dn

400

LDAPServerWithNoBindDn

See LDAPServerWithNoBindPassword.

 

500

LDAPConnectionFailure

Something went wrong during testing the connection. The most common reason would be an incorrect server address/port, DNS resolution failure, firewalls, or a damaged networking cable.

Make sure that the configured address/port is reachable from SPS.

 

For more information and a list of standard HTTP response codes, see Application level error codes.

General connection settings

Topics:

Channel policy

The channel policy lists the channels (for example, terminal session and SCP in SSH, Drawing, Clipboard in RDP) that can be used in a connection. The channel policy can further restrict access to each channel based on the IP address of the client or the server, a user list, user group, or a time policy. For example, all clients may access the servers defined in a connection via SSH terminal, but the channel policy may restrict SCP access only to a single client. The policies set in the channel policy are checked when the user attempts to open a particular channel type in the connection.

Channel policies are protocol specific. To list the available Channel policies for a protocol, use the following command.

curl --cookie cookies https://<IP-address-of-SPS>/api/configuration/<http|ica|rdp|ssh|telnet|vnc>/channel_policies

The following sections detail the properties of Channel policy objects.

URL
GET https:<IP-address-of-SPS>/api/configuration/<http|ica|rdp|ssh|telnet|vnc>/channel_policies/<object-id>
Cookies
Cookie name Description Required Values
session_id Contains the authentication token of the user Required

The value of the session ID cookie received from the REST server in the authentication response, for example, a1f71d030e657634730b9e887cb59a5e56162860. For details on authentication, see Authenticate to the SPS REST API.

NOTE: This session ID refers to the connection between the REST client and the SPS REST API. It is not related to the sessions that SPS records (and which also have a session ID, but in a different format)..

Sample request

The following command lists the properties of a specific RDP Channel policy object.

curl --cookie cookies -https:<IP-address-of-SPS>/api/configuration/<rdp>/channel_policies/<object-id>

Element Type Description
name string Top level element, the name of the object. This name is also displayed on the SPS web interface. It cannot contain whitespace.
rules list of JSON objects Top level element, contains the configuration properties of the object.
actions JSON object The actions that SPS performs for the channel, for example, recording the traffic into an audit trail.
allowed_for JSON object Specifies the access control rules of the channel, for example, permitted target IP addresses or usergroups.
channel string

The type of the channel. Note that channels are protocol specific, and different type of channels can have different parameters.

For example:

"channel": "#drawing",
Element Type Description
actions JSON object The list of actions to perform when the Content policy matches the analyzed traffic. All actions are boolean values (true or false)
audit boolean

Set to true to record the activities of the channel into audit trails. Possible values: true or false

content_policy JSON object

Specifies the Content policy to use in the channel, otherwise its value is null (which is the default). For details on Content policies, see Real-time content monitoring with Content Policies For example:

"content_policy": {
"key": "<object-id>",
}
four_eyes boolean

Set to true to require four-eyes authorization to access the channel. For details, see "Configuring four-eyes authorization" in the Administration Guide. Possible values: true or false

Element Type Description
allowed_for JSON object Specifies the access control rules of the channel.
clients list

To restrict the availability of the channel only to certain clients, list the IP address or network of the clients allowed to use this the channel. For IPv6 addresses, use the canonized format of the address. For example:

"clients": [
  "192.168.1.1/24",
  "2001:db8:85a3::8a2e:0:0/32"
                        

Alternatively, you can also enter a hostname instead. One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) saves the hostname and resolves it when opening channels, therefore SPS can trace dynamic IP addresses.

NOTE: Note the following limitations:

  • The Domain Name Servers you set must be able to resolve the hostnames you enter into the clients and servers fields, otherwise this function (and, therefore, the sessions using this Channel Policy) will not work.

  • SPS Channel Policies support wildcard characters in the *.example.com format. If the channel opening request contains an IP address, SPS uses a reverse lookup method to resolve this IP address into a hostname for a match.

  • SPS uses the Domain Name Servers set in the /api/configuration/network/dns endpoint to resolve the hostnames.

gateway_groups list

You can control channel access during gateway authentication with blacklists or whitelists of user groups. You can use local user lists on SPS, or LDAP groups.

To use this option, you must also configure web gateway authentication in the connection policy, or client-side gateway authentication back-end in the authentication policy.

For example:

"gateway_groups": ["group1", "group2"],

To configure local user lists, see User lists.

remote_groups list

You can control channel access during authentication to the remote server with blacklists or whitelists of user groups. You can use local user lists on SPS, or LDAP groups.

For example:

"remote_groups": ["group1", "group2"],

To configure local user lists, see User lists.

servers list

To restrict the availability of the channel only to certain servers, list the IP address or network of the servers that your clients are allowed to access using this the channel. For IPv6 addresses, use the canonized format of the address. For example:

"servers": [
  "192.168.1.1/24",
  "2001:db8:85a3::8a2e:0:0/32"
                        

Alternatively, you can also enter a hostname instead. One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) saves the hostname and resolves it when opening channels, therefore SPS can trace dynamic IP addresses.

NOTE: Note the following limitations:

  • The Domain Name Servers you set must be able to resolve the hostnames you enter into the clients and servers fields, otherwise this function (and, therefore, the sessions using this Channel Policy) will not work.

  • SPS Channel Policies support wildcard characters in the *.example.com format. If the channel opening request contains an IP address, SPS uses a reverse lookup method to resolve this IP address into a hostname for a match.

  • SPS uses the Domain Name Servers set in the /api/configuration/network/dns endpoint to resolve the hostnames.

Alternatively, you can configure a custom DNS server to be used for target selection custom_dns field of the Connection Policy.

time_policy JSON object

Specifies the Time policy to use in the channel. If you do not want to restrict access, use the default 7x24 policy-100. For details on Time policies, see Time policy. For example:

"time_policy": {
  "key": "-100",
}
