Introducing McAfee GTI Proxy


McAfee GTI Proxy
McAfee GTI Proxy is a system that allows McAfee Virus Scan Enterprise (VSE) nodes to perform GTI system lookups from within the Enterprise Network without requiring direct access to the GTI Servers in the Cloud. The GTI Proxy system acts as a central controller within the enterprise to resolve GTI requests on behalf of the VSE nodes. The VSE nodes make the GTI request to the GTI Proxy system and the GTI Proxy system then makes the lookup to the GTI Servers in the Cloud. The GTI Proxy system uses the response to populate a local cache and then sends back the response to VSE nodes. The GTI Proxy system caches the response for a period as defined by the GTI Servers in the cloud. When the cache period expires, the next request for the information from the GTI Proxy system by VSE nodes causes another request to the GTI Servers in the Cloud and the cache to be updated. This mechanism keeps the GTI Proxy system synchronized with the GTI Server in the cloud. There are two parts to the McAfee GTI Proxy system: GTI Proxy (for setting up fallback servers on the managed VSE client nodes and for managing GTI Proxy Appliance) GTI Proxy Appliance (performs GTI lookups)

GTI Proxy
GTI Proxy is a combination of two ePO products, which is delivered as a single zip file GTI Proxy.zip. One is GTI Proxy, which configures VSE nodes on the enterprise network to communicate with specified GTI Proxy Appliance instances for resolving GTI system lookups. Another is GTI Proxy Appliance, which communicates with and manages the GTI Proxy Appliance machine on the enterprise network. The services it offers are Configuring the GTI Proxy Appliance to setup GTI cloud servers, managing specified Log files (Pull/Purge) on the server, managing the GTI Proxy process for querying its Status and also performing operations like Start, Stop etc. Along with this it provides reporting information on the GTI Proxy Appliance performance in the form of different graphs and charts.

GTI Proxy Appliance


The GTI Proxy Appliance is delivered as a VMware image to the Enterprise. The VMware host image is a CentOS 5.3 64-bit installation. A gtiproxy process is running on the system to service GTI requests. The following functionality is provided: Service GTI requests from VSE nodes on the Enterprise network Perform GTI lookup requests in the Cloud

Caching of GTI lookup Tiered support for multiple GTI Proxy Appliance configuration on the Enterprise network

Configuring GTI Proxy Appliance


This chapter describes how to configure GTI Proxy Appliance using McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator management software. To use this chapter effectively you need to be familiar with ePolicy Orchestrator and basic UNIX shell interaction.

Configuring GTI Proxy Appliance


This section describes how to configure GTI Proxy Appliance from ePO so that it can support:

Resolving GTI Requests using the GTI Servers in the Cloud Resolving GTI Requests using another GTI Proxy Appliance Following these tasks will change any previous configuration applied to the GTI Proxy Appliance.

Adding a GTI Proxy Appliance


Use this task to setup GTI Proxy Appliance from ePO to administer/monitor a single or multiple GTI Proxy Appliance(s). Make sure the GTI Proxy Appliance is managed through ePO and GTI Proxy Appliance plugin is installed in it, before performing this task. Refer the tasks Install McAfee Agent for Linux on GTI Proxy Appliance and Deploying GTI Proxy Appliance plugin to do so. Important This is also a mandatory task, to be performed for the first use of GTI Proxy Appliance from ePO. Task 1. Log on to the ePolicy Orchestrator server as an administrator. 2. Select Menu | Configuration | GTI Proxy Appliance Setup. 3. Two select boxes appear. The one at the left, Managed System having GTI Proxy Appliance deployed, lists the GTI Proxy Appliance, which are managed and having GTI Proxy Appliance plugin installed in it. 4. The box at the right GTI Proxy Appliances which are to be monitored, lists the GTI Proxy Appliance which needs to be monitored using GTI Proxy Appliance from ePO. If this is the first use, then this box will be empty, otherwise it shows all the GTI Proxy Appliance which are being currently monitored using GTI Proxy Appliance from ePO. 5. To add a GTI Proxy Appliance to be monitored, select the server in the left side select box and click the first arrow button pointing towards right direction (or

26
