How to configure NGINX Agent

#
# /etc/nginx-agent/nginx-agent.conf
#
# Configuration file for NGINX Agent.
#
# This file tracks agent configuration values that are meant to be statically set. There
# are additional NGINX Agent configuration values that are set via the API and agent install script
# which can be found in /etc/nginx-agent/agent-dynamic.conf.

# specify the server grpc port to connect to
server:
  # host of the control plane
  host: <FQDN>
  grpcPort: 443
  backoff: # note: default values are prepopulated 
    initial_interval: 100ms # Add the appropriate duration value here, e.g., "100ms" for 100 milliseconds, "5s" for 5 seconds, "1m" for 1 minute, "1h" for 1 hour
    randomization_factor: 0.10 # Add the appropriate float value here, e.g., 0.10
    multiplier: 1.5 # Add the appropriate float value here, e.g., 1.5
    max_interval: 1m # Add the appropriate duration value here, e.g., "100ms" for 100 milliseconds, "5s" for 5 seconds, "1m" for 1 minute, "1h" for 1 hour
    max_elapsed_time: 0 # Add the appropriate duration value here, e.g., "0" for indefinite "100ms" for 100 milliseconds, "5s" for 5 seconds, "1m" for 1 minute, "1h" for 1 hour
# tls options
tls:
  # enable tls in the nginx-agent setup for grpcs
  # default to enable to connect with secure connection but without client cert for mtls
  enable: true
  # controls whether the server certificate chain and host name are verified.
  # for production use, see instructions for configuring TLS
  skip_verify: false
log:
  # set log level (panic, fatal, error, info, debug, trace; default "info")
  level: info
  # set log path. if empty, don't log to file.
  path: /var/log/nginx-agent/
nginx:
  # path of NGINX logs to exclude
  exclude_logs: ""
  # Set to true when NGINX configuration should contain no warnings when performing a configuration apply (nginx -t is used to carry out this check)
  treat_warnings_as_errors: false # Default is false
# data plane status message / 'heartbeat'
dataplane:
  status:
    # poll interval for dataplane status - the frequency the NGINX Agent will query the dataplane for changes
    poll_interval: 30s
    # report interval for dataplane status - the maximum duration to wait before syncing dataplane information if no updates have been observed
    report_interval: 24h
metrics:
  # specify the size of a buffer to build before sending metrics
  bulk_size: 20
  # specify metrics poll interval
  report_interval: 1m
  collection_interval: 15s
  mode: aggregated
    backoff: # note: default values are prepopulated 
      initial_interval: 100ms # Add the appropriate duration value here, e.g., "100ms" for 100 milliseconds, "5s" for 5 seconds, "1m" for 1 minute, "1h" for 1 hour

extensions:
  - nginx-app-protect

# Enable reporting NGINX App Protect details to the control plane.

  # Report interval for NGINX App Protect details - the frequency NGINX Agent checks NGINX App Protect for changes.

# Dynamic configuration file for NGINX Agent.
#
# The purpose of this file is to track agent configuration
# values that can be dynamically changed via the API and the agent install script.
# You may edit this file, but API calls that modify the tags on this system will
# overwrite the tag values in this file.
#
# The agent configuration values that API calls can modify are as follows:
# tags:
#   - dev
#   - qa
#
# The agent configuration value that the agent install script can modify are as follows:
# instance_group: my-instance-group

instance_group: my-instance-group
tags:
  - dev
  - qa
