Global config

The global config, named Danger zone in Otoroshi, is the place to configure Otoroshi globally.

Warning: In this page, the configuration is really sensitive and affects the global behaviour of Otoroshi.

Misc. Settings

  • Maintenance mode : It passes every single service in maintenance mode. If a user calls a service, the maintenance page will be displayed
  • No OAuth login for BackOffice : Forces admins to login only with user/password or user/password/u2F device
  • API Read Only: Freeze Otoroshi datastore in read only mode. Only people with access to the actual underlying datastore will be able to disable this.
  • Auto link default : When no group is specified on a service, it will be assigned to default one
  • Use circuit breakers : Use circuit breaker on all services
  • Use new http client as the default Http client : All http calls will use the new http client by default
  • Enable live metrics : Enable live metrics in the Otoroshi cluster. Performs a lot of writes in the datastore
  • Digitus medius : Use middle finger emoji as a response character for endless HTTP responses (see IP address filtering settings).
  • Limit conc. req. : Limit the number of concurrent request processed by Otoroshi to a certain amount. Highly recommended for resilience
  • Use X-Forwarded-* headers for routing : When evaluating routing of a request, X-Forwarded-* headers will be used if presents
  • Max conc. req. : Maximum number of concurrent requests processed by otoroshi.
  • Max HTTP/1.0 resp. size : Maximum size of an HTTP/1.0 response in bytes. After this limit, response will be cut and sent as is. The best value here should satisfy (maxConcurrentRequests * maxHttp10ResponseSize) < process.memory for worst case scenario.
  • Max local events : Maximum number of events stored.
  • Lines : deprecated

IP address filtering settings

  • IP allowed list: Only IP addresses that will be able to access Otoroshi exposed services
  • IP blocklist: IP addresses that will be refused to access Otoroshi exposed services
  • Endless HTTP Responses: IP addresses for which each request will return around 128 Gb of 0s

Quotas settings

  • Global throttling: The max. number of requests allowed per second globally on Otoroshi
  • Throttling per IP: The max. number of requests allowed per second per IP address globally on Otoroshi

  • Manually apply index template: try to put the elasticsearch template by calling the api of elasticsearch
  • Show index template: try to retrieve the current index template present in elasticsearch
  • Client side temporal indexes handling: When enabled, Otoroshi will manage the creation of indexes over time. When it’s disabled, Otoroshi will push in the same index
  • One index per: When the previous field is enabled, you can choose the interval of time between the creation of a new index in elasticsearch

  • StatsD agent host: The host on which StatsD agent is listening
  • StatsD agent port: The port on which StatsD agent is listening (default is 8125)

Backoffice auth. settings

  • Backoffice auth. config: the authentication module used in front of Otoroshi. It will be used to connect to Otoroshi on the login page

  • CleverCloud consumer secret: consumer secret of your clever cloud OAuth 1.0 app
  • OAuth Token: oauth token of your clever cloud OAuth 1.0 app
  • OAuth Secret: oauth token secret of your clever cloud OAuth 1.0 app

Global scripts

Global scripts will be deprecated soon, please use global plugins instead (see the next section)!

Proxies

In this section, you can add a list of proxies for :

  • Proxy for alert emails (mailgun)
  • Proxy for alert webhooks
  • Proxy for Clever-Cloud API access
  • Proxy for services access
  • Proxy for auth. access (OAuth, OIDC)
  • Proxy for client validators
  • Proxy for JWKS access
  • Proxy for elastic access

Each proxy has the following fields

  • Proxy host: host of proxy
  • Proxy port: port of proxy
  • Proxy principal: user of proxy
  • Proxy password: password of proxy
  • Non proxy host: IP address that can access the service

Extract a geolocation for each call to Otoroshi.

Tls Settings

  • Use random cert.: Use the first available cert when none matches the current domain
  • Default domain: When the SNI domain cannot be found, this one will be used to find the matching certificate 
  • Trust JDK CAs (server): Trust JDK CAs. The CAs from the JDK CA bundle will be proposed in the certificate request when performing TLS handshake 
  • Trust JDK CAs (trust): Trust JDK CAs. The CAs from the JDK CA bundle will be used as trusted CAs when calling HTTPS resources 
  • Trusted CAs (server): Select the trusted CAs you want for TLS terminaison. Those CAs only will be proposed in the certificate request when performing TLS handshake
