Introduction

In order for Cloudaware CMDB collector to discover infrastructure running on the private network, customers must deploy a local proxy. Local collector proxy must have ingress access to the target endpoint and egress access to the Cloudaware TunHub's server. 

...

Customers are able to set up the TunHub integration using a self-service interface in Cloudaware Admin panel.

Breeze Setup

Select any existing or a new server that has access to the resources in your private network and may communicate to Cloudaware. Follow the steps below to install Breeze agent:

...

3. Once Breeze is installed, the server gets access to breeze-server.cloudaware.com and may act as TunHub proxy.

TunHub Setup

Create A Tunnel

Create a tunnel to grant Cloudaware access to your private network resources. A tunnel should contain one or more routes, which can be added on the next step.

...

5. Review the integration details. The yellow light in 'Primary Channel' means that TunHub is waiting for the local collector proxy (Breeze) to connect. 

Configure Routes

TunHub integration should have at least one route configured. A route is an entity that maps a private address in your network to the one which is reachable by Cloudaware. The route generates an alternate address which customers may use for adding integrations that require secure connection.
