Installing the Java Module on Weblogic
Last updated 2022-04-11
Compatibility
The Signal Sciences Java module is compatible with WebLogic version 12c (12.2.1) or higher.
Installation
To deploy the Signal Sciences Java module on WebLogic servers, you must first add it to your application as a servlet filter.
Then, deploy your application to your WebLogic server through the same process you would deploy any other Web Application.
Module Configuration
| Option | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
rpcServerURI | Required, tcp://127.0.0.1:9999 | The Unix domain socket or TCP connection to communicate with the agent. |
rpcTimeout | Required, 300ms | The timeout in milliseconds that the RPC client waits for a response back from the agent. |
maxResponseTime | Optional, no default | The maximum time in seconds that the server response time will be evaluated against (i.e., to see if it exceeds this value) to determine if the module should send a post request to the agent. |
maxResponseSize | Optional, no default | The maximum size in bytes that the server response size will be evaluated against (i.e. to see if it exceeds this value) to determine if the module should send a post request to the agent. |
maxPost | Optional, no default | The maximum POST body size in bytes that can be sent to the Signal Sciences agent. For any POST body size exceeding this limit, the module will not send the request to the agent for detection. |
asyncStartFix | Optional, false | This can be set to true to workaround missing request body when handling requests asynchronously in servlets. |
altResponseCodes | Optional, no default | Space separated alternative agent response codes used to block the request in addition to 406. For example 403 429 503. |
excludeCidrBlock | Optional, no default | A comma-delimited list of CIDR blocks or specific IP addresses to be excluded from filter processing. |
excludeIpRange | Optional, no default | A comma-delimited list of IP ranges or specific IP addresses to be excluded from filter processing. |
excludePath | Optional, no default | A comma-delimited list of paths to be excluded from filter processing. If the URL starts with the specified value it will be excluded. Matching is case-insensitive. |
excludeHost | Optional, no default | A comma-delimited list of host names to be excluded from filter processing. Matching is case-insensitive. |
Sample module configuration:
Module configuration changes must be made in the <!-- Signal Sciences Filter --> section of your application's web.xml file:
1<!-- Signal Sciences Filter -->2<filter>3 <filter-name>sigSciFilter</filter-name>4 <filter-class>com.signalsciences.servlet.filter.SigSciFilter</filter-class>5 <async-supported>true</async-supported>6<init-param>7 <param-name>rpcTimeout</param-name>8 <param-value>500</param-value>9</init-param>10 <init-param>11 <param-name>asyncStartFix</param-name>12 <param-value>true</param-value>13</init-param>14</filter>15<filter-mapping>16 <filter-name>sigSciFilter</filter-name>17 <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>18</filter-mapping>19<!-- end Signal Sciences Filter -->Do not use this form to send sensitive information.
