Set up your appliances quickly and easily. Arrange your appliances into categories for geographic, environmental, organizational or any other purpose to simplify selection. Share appliance configurations securely with others to prevent duplication of effort, or to be able to switch between clients or any other purpose.
One prerequisite and one-time setup. Nothing could be easier than setting up DPAA®. All you need is Open JDK or Oracle Java JRE version 19 or better, and you're ready to go! Use the Contact Us page to get your license and watch the Getting Started video, and that's all you need to do.
Easily understand appliance and appliance category status with real-time display of categorical relationships, appliance connected state, and when appliances are quiesced. Clearly tell the difference between appliance categories and appliances. Know the difference icons that show for domains, such as quiesce state, when the domains need to be saved, when trace or diagnostics are enabled, when the logs are set at debug, and when probes are turned on for one or more services within a domain.
Locate, Manage and control Configuration Objects
Quickly locate objects, manage their properties, and synchronize edits across many appliances and domains.
DPAA® lets you find objects wherever they be hiding. You can search by name or use a regular expression. Even more powerful is the ability to locate objects based upon their property values!
Whether quiescing services, domains, or protocol handlers or toggling the administrative state of objects, DPAA® gives you control without hassle.
Configurations can be copied and moved from any number of source objects from any set of appliances and domains to any number of appliances and domains.
Though DataPower will show you object references going down the hierarchy, DPAA® not only allows you to see references in both directions, but shows the references is a much more understandable way and can show them for any number of objects at the same time. Not only that, DPAA® will drill all the way down to the file level so you can easily see which files are being referenced by the various objects within the hierarchy.
DPAA® helps you see, edit and control all the properties of object configurations. Synchronize editing across multiple objects across many appliances and domains. One change changes them all!
DPAA® is designed with productivity, ease of use, and always the ability to perform tasks against multiple objects across any number of appliances and domains. These features include simple and complex property management, editing and synchronization. Synchronize your load balancer group members. Set up your probe triggers for all your service objects at the same time. Manage ciphers for SSL Server and Client profiles, and much, much more.
Do you like that object configuration and need another one almost just like it? DPAA® allows you to save objects of any kind under a new name, effectively cloning them on the spot. And, of course, it can do it for any number of objects across any number of appliances and domains.
Sometimes a little magic comes your way. DPAA® is the only tool on the planet allowing you to perform a refactoring rename of objects with just a few clicks of a mouse and a little typing. Once the object is renamed, DPAA® reconfigures all objects referencing the object to ensure the references and object hierarchy remain properly intact.
When exporting configurations from DataPower using DPAA®, you'll no longer have to worry about overwriting other exported objects, even when acting upon the same object from multiple appliances and domains.
DPAA® puts a unique twist on configuration imports by allowing you to import multiple files in one go, all the while controlling the order the files are imported. For each import file, whether it be XML or XCFG, you can apply deployment policies with associated deployment policy variables.
There is no other feature like DPAA®'s SnapShot. Snapshot allows you to put every single individual object, file and certificate under version control. Then, after you have taken a few snapshots, you can compare any two snapshots from any two historical dates to quickly identify exactly which objects, files and certificates have changed.
With DPAA®, you can update certificates and keys referenced by a crypto identification credential from ob-board or external sources. For on-board files, just select the files for each certificate and key, apply any needed passwords, and you're set. For external sources, locate the files, indicate where you want them uploaded, what the file names should be when uploaded to the appliance, set any needed passwords, and you'll be done sooner than you can say "Update my Crypto Identification Creden
Configuration objects can be deleted in a snap with DPAA®. In addition to your normal object delete, DPAA® gives you the power of cascading deletes, meaning when you delete an object, you can delete all the objects referenced by that object! Not only that, DPAA® takes cascading delete all the way down to the file level, helping you keep you DataPower environment clean and fresh without all the trash typically left behind.
Locate Certificates by CN, DN, SAN, or Issuer or any other way. Compare, export and update them from a variety of sources.
