Arbit Data Diode configuration
This guide describes how to deploy MetaDefender Kiosk, an Arbit data diode, and a MetaDefender Managed File Transfer server for the following use case.
- Portable media is scanned by MetaDefender Kiosk
- Clean files are passed through an Arbit data diode to a MFT Server
- User downloads files from the MFT server
System Deployment
The following should be done before configuring the individual systems.
Install MetaDefender Kiosk with MetaDefender Core on the low-side network
Install the Arbit data diode with the receiving side in the low-side network and the transmitting side on the high side network
- Assign a static IP address to the low side
- Assign a static IP address to the high side
Install the MFT server on the high side network
- Assign a static IP address
MFT Server Configuration
Create the known user accounts on the MFT server
- Note the account that should be used as the 'from' account for files coming from MetaDefender Kiosk
Generate the Authorization api key
Arbit Data Diode Configuration
- Define the URL list on the high side of the data diode to include the MFT server
- URL List includes:
- http://<MFT IP Address>:8000/vault_rest/file
- http://<MFT IP Address>:8000/vault_rest/transfer
- http://<MFT IP Address>:8000/vault_rest/transfer_diode
- http://<MFT IP Address>:8000/vault_rest/transfer_file
- http://<MFT IP Address>:8000/vault_rest/transfer_file_diode
- http://<MFT IP Address>:8000/vault_rest/file/status/<file_id>
- http://<MFT IP Address>:8000/vault_rest/file/<file_id>
- http://<MFT IP Address>:8000/vault_rest/folder_content/<id>/<start>/<count>
- http://<MFT IP Address>:8000/vault_rest/root_folder
- http://<MFT IP Address>:8000/vault_rest/files/my/<start>/<count>
- http://<MFT IP Address>:8000/vault_rest/transfer_file_chunk_diode
- http://<MFT IP Address>:8000/vault_rest/authenticate
- http://<MFT IP Address>:8000/vault_rest/scan
- URL List includes:
MetaDefender Kiosk Configuration
Configure the appropriate MetaDefender Kiosk workflow to enable Copy To MFT in the post-action
Put in the URL of the data diode low-side receiver
- http://<diode low-side IP address>:8080/pitcherrestapi/transfer/<URL List>
Enter the Authorization token generated by the MFT Server
Enter the Sender MFT account that was created on the MFT server
