FlowCollector API reference¶

The FlowCollector API is the underlying schema used to pilot and configure the deployments for collecting network flows. This reference guide helps you manage those critical settings.

FlowCollector API specifications¶

Description: FlowCollector is the schema for the network flows collection API, which pilots and configures the underlying deployments.
Type: `object`

Property	Type	Description
`apiVersion`	`string`	APIVersion defines the versioned schema of this representation of an object. Servers should convert recognized schemas to the latest internal value, and might reject unrecognized values. More info: https://git.k8s.io/community/contributors/devel/sig-architecture/api-conventions.md#resources
`kind`	`string`	Kind is a string value representing the REST resource this object represents. Servers might infer this from the endpoint the client submits requests to. Cannot be updated. In CamelCase. More info: https://git.k8s.io/community/contributors/devel/sig-architecture/api-conventions.md#types-kinds
`metadata`	`object`	Standard object’s metadata. More info: https://git.k8s.io/community/contributors/devel/sig-architecture/api-conventions.md#metadata
`spec`	`object`	Defines the desired state of the FlowCollector resource. *: the mention of "unsupported" or "deprecated" for a feature throughout this document means that this feature is not officially supported by Red Hat. It might have been, for example, contributed by the community and accepted without a formal agreement for maintenance. The product maintainers might provide some support for these features as a best effort only.

.metadata¶

Description: Standard object’s metadata. More info: https://git.k8s.io/community/contributors/devel/sig-architecture/api-conventions.md#metadata
Type: `object`

.spec¶

Description

Defines the desired state of the FlowCollector resource.

*: the mention of "unsupported" or "deprecated" for a feature throughout this document means that this feature is not officially supported by Red Hat. It might have been, for example, contributed by the community and accepted without a formal agreement for maintenance. The product maintainers might provide some support for these features as a best effort only.

Type

`object`

Property	Type	Description
`agent`	`object`	Agent configuration for flows extraction.
`consolePlugin`	`object`	`consolePlugin` defines the settings related to the OpenShift Container Platform Console plugin, when available.
`deploymentModel`	`string`	`deploymentModel` defines the desired type of deployment for flow processing. Possible values are: - `Service` (default) to make the flow processor listen as a Kubernetes Service, backed by a scalable Deployment. - `Kafka` to make flows sent to a Kafka pipeline before consumption by the processor. - `Direct` to make the flow processor listen directly from the agents using the host network, backed by a DaemonSet. Only recommended on small clusters, below 15 nodes. Kafka can provide better scalability, resiliency, and high availability (for more details, see https://www.redhat.com/en/topics/integration/what-is-apache-kafka). `Direct` is not recommended on large clusters as it is less memory efficient.
`execution`	`object`	`execution` defines configuration related to the execution of the flow collection process.
`exporters`	`array`	`exporters` defines additional optional exporters for custom consumption or storage.
`kafka`	`object`	Kafka configuration, allowing to use Kafka as a broker as part of the flow collection pipeline. Available when the `spec.deploymentModel` is `Kafka`.
`loki`	`object`	`loki`, the flow store, client settings.
`namespace`	`string`	Namespace where Network Observability pods are deployed. Those pods require various cluster role bindings in order to operate. Those bindings are preinstalled for service accounts located in the default namespace. If you configured a different namespace, you must update (or recreate) the cluster role bindings accordingly. You can see the list of preinstalled bindings here: https://github.com/openshift/network-observability-operator/blob/release-1.12/helm/templates/component_role_bindings.yaml
`networkPolicy`	`object`	`networkPolicy` defines network policy settings for Network Observability components isolation.
`processor`	`object`	`processor` defines the settings of the component that receives the flows from the agent, enriches them, generates metrics, and forwards them to the Loki persistence layer and/or any available exporter.

`type`	`string`	`type` [deprecated (*)] selects the flows tracing agent. Previously, this field allowed to select between `eBPF` or `IPFIX`. Only `eBPF` is allowed now, so this field is deprecated and is planned for removal in a future version of the API.

.spec.agent.ebpf¶

Description: ebpf describes the settings related to the eBPF-based flow reporter when spec.agent.type is set to eBPF.
Type: `object`

Property	Type	Description
`advanced`	`object`	`advanced` allows setting some aspects of the internal configuration of the eBPF agent. This section is aimed mostly for debugging and fine-grained performance optimizations, such as `GOGC` and `GOMAXPROCS` environment variables. Set these values at your own risk. You can also override the default Linux capabilities from there.
`cacheActiveTimeout`	`string`	`cacheActiveTimeout` is the period during which the agent aggregates flows before sending. Increasing `cacheMaxFlows` and `cacheActiveTimeout` can decrease the network traffic overhead and the CPU load, however you can expect higher memory consumption and an increased latency in the flow collection.

Increasing `cacheMaxFlows` and `cacheActiveTimeout` can decrease the network traffic overhead and the CPU load, however you can expect higher memory consumption and an increased latency in the flow collection.
`excludeInterfaces`	`array (string)`	`excludeInterfaces` contains the interface names that are excluded from flow tracing. An entry enclosed by slashes, such as `/br-/`, is matched as a regular expression. Otherwise it is matched as a case-sensitive string.
`features`	`array (string)`	List of additional features to enable. They are all disabled by default. Enabling additional features might have performance impacts. Possible values are: - `PacketDrop`: Enable the packets drop flows logging feature. This feature requires mounting the kernel debug filesystem, so the eBPF agent pods must run as privileged via `spec.agent.ebpf.privileged`. - `DNSTracking`: Enable the DNS tracking feature. - `FlowRTT`: Enable flow latency (sRTT) extraction in the eBPF agent from TCP traffic. - `NetworkEvents`: Enable the network events monitoring feature, such as correlating flows and network policies.

It requires using the OVN-Kubernetes network plugin with the Observability feature. IMPORTANT: This feature is available as a Technology Preview. - `PacketTranslation`: Enable enriching flows with packet translation information, such as Service NAT. - `EbpfManager`: [Unsupported (*)]. Use eBPF Manager to manage Network Observability eBPF programs. Pre-requisite: the eBPF Manager operator (or upstream bpfman operator) must be installed. - `UDNMapping`: Enable interfaces mapping to User Defined Networks (UDN). This feature requires mounting the kernel debug filesystem, so the eBPF agent pods must run as privileged via `spec.agent.ebpf.privileged`. It requires using the OVN-Kubernetes network plugin with the Observability feature. - `IPSec`, to track flows between nodes with IPsec encryption. - `TLSTracking`, to track TLS usage. +

Otherwise it is matched as a case-sensitive string.
`kafkaBatchSize`	`integer`	`kafkaBatchSize` limits the maximum size of a request in bytes before being sent to a partition. Ignored when not using Kafka. Default: 1MB.
`logLevel`	`string`	`logLevel` defines the log level for the Network Observability eBPF Agent
`metrics`	`object`	`metrics` defines the eBPF agent configuration regarding metrics.
`privileged`	`boolean`	Privileged mode for the eBPF Agent container. When set to `true`, the agent is able to capture more traffic, including from secondary interfaces. When ignored or set to `false`, the operator sets granular capabilities (BPF, PERFMON, NET_ADMIN) to the container. Some agent features require the privileged mode, such as packet drops tracking (see `features`) and SR-IOV support.
`resources`	`object`	`resources` are the compute resources required by this container. For more information, see https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/manage-resources-containers/

Indirectly, this is a way to accurately detect external traffic: flows that are not labeled for those subnets are external to the cluster. Enabled by default on OpenShift Container Platform.

.spec.processor.subnetLabels.customLabels¶

Description

customLabels allows you to customize subnets and IPs labeling, such as to identify cluster external workloads or web services. External subnets must be labeled with the prefix EXT:, or not labeled at all, in order to work with default quick filters and some metrics examples provided. +

If openShiftAutoDetect is disabled or you are not using OpenShift Container Platform, it is recommended to manually configure labels for the cluster subnets, to distinguish internal traffic from external traffic. +

If openShiftAutoDetect is enabled, customLabels overrides the detected subnets when they overlap. +

Type

`array`

.spec.processor.subnetLabels.customLabels[]¶

Description

SubnetLabel allows to label subnets and IPs, such as to identify cluster-external workloads or web services.

Type

`object`

Required

cidrs
name

Property	Type	Description
`cidrs`	`array (string)`	List of CIDRs, such as `["1.2.3.4/32"]`.
`name`	`string`	Label name, used to flag matching flows. External subnets must be labeled with the prefix `EXT:`, or not labeled at all, in order to work with default quick filters and some metrics examples provided. +

.spec.prometheus¶

Description: prometheus defines Prometheus settings, such as querier configuration used to fetch metrics from the Console plugin.
Type: `object`

Property	Type	Description
`querier`	`object`	Prometheus querying configuration, such as client settings, used in the Console plugin.

.spec.prometheus.querier¶

Description

Prometheus querying configuration, such as client settings, used in the Console plugin.

Type

`object`

Required

mode

Property	Type	Description
`enable`	`boolean`	When `enable` is `true`, the Console plugin queries flow metrics from Prometheus instead of Loki whenever possible. It is enabled by default: set it to `false` to disable this feature. The Console plugin can use either Loki or Prometheus as a data source for metrics (see also `spec.loki`), or both. Not all queries are transposable from Loki to Prometheus. Hence, if Loki is disabled, some features of the plugin are disabled as well, such as getting per-pod information or viewing raw flows. If both Prometheus and Loki are enabled, Prometheus takes precedence and Loki is used as a fallback for queries that Prometheus cannot handle. If they are both disabled, the Console plugin is not deployed.
`manual`	`object`	Prometheus configuration for `Manual` mode.
`mode`	`string`	`mode` must be set according to the type of Prometheus installation that stores Network Observability metrics: - Use `Auto` to try configuring automatically. In OpenShift Container Platform, it uses the Thanos querier from OpenShift Container Platform Cluster Monitoring. - Use `Manual` for a manual setup. +
`timeout`	`string`	`timeout` is the read timeout for console plugin queries to Prometheus. A timeout of zero means no timeout.

.spec.prometheus.querier.manual¶

Description: Prometheus configuration for Manual mode.
Type: `object`

Property	Type	Description
