To integrate an external data interception module with Traffic Monitor system, perform the following steps:
- Register with InfoWatch company the identifier string of vendor company producing a component. This will link the vendor company with a license that will be installed in Traffic Monitor system;
- Get a developer license linked with the company identifier. This will enable loading interception events from this vendor to Traffic Monitor. The developer license allows you to load any event types (services);
- Create a file for external component registry. The file format is described below. By this moment, the data source names for sample unloading should be already defined, which is to be generated by the external component. The license obtained as per step 2 is added to the registry file;
- Load the external component registry file to Traffic Monitor system via Traffic Monitor console interface. For details, see the "Administration" - "Plugins" section in "Traffic Monitor. User Guide";
- In the properties of the loaded external component, get an access token.
Now the System is ready to receive events from the specified vendor company with the specified interception service.
