Modifying an HTTP receiver for metadata streaming using the CLI

Go to CLI configuration mode.

hostname > enable
hostname # configure terminal

Update the IPv4 address or hostname of the HTTP server to send metadata streaming events to:

hostname (config) # datastreaming configuration protocol http consumers <service-name> server-url <url>

Note

IPv6 addresses are not supported.

Change the authentication method: token or basic.

hostname (config) # datastreaming configuration protocol http consumers <service-name> auth method {TOKEN | BASIC}

Change the authentication token.

hostname (config) # datastreaming configuration protocol http consumers <service-name> auth token <token>

Change the user name if you are using a basic authentication method.

hostname (config) # datastreaming configuration protocol http consumers <service-name> auth username <username>

Change the password if you are using a basic authentication method.

hostname (config) # datastreaming configuration protocol http consumers <service-name> auth password <password>

Change the content type that is to be streamed to the HTTP receiver.

hostname (config) # datastreaming configuration protocol http consumers <service-name> content-type {application/json | application/x-www-form-urlencoded | text/plain}

Change the minimum version of the TLS protocol to secure metadata streaming on the HTTP receiver.

hostname (config) # datastreaming configuration protocol http consumers <service-name>  ssl min-version {TLSv1 | TLSv1.1 | TLSv1.2}

Verify the changes.

hostname (config) # show datastreaming configuration
