Have your Google Cloud JSON-formatted service account data ready; it's required to set up the connector.

Procedure

Step 1

Log in to Security Cloud Control.

Step 2

Click Administration > Dynamic Attributes Connector > Connectors.

Step 3

Do any of the following:

  • Add a new connector: click Add icon (add icon), then click the name of the connector.

  • Edit a connector: click Edit icon (edit icon).

  • Delete a connector: click Delete icon (delete icon).

Step 4

Enter the following information.

Value

Description

Name

Description

Optional description.

Pull Interval

(Default 30 seconds.) Interval at which IP mappings are retrieved from AWS.

The minimum value for Pull Interval is 1 second. You can set the maximum to any value you want. We recommend against setting the minimum to a low value because it can generate a lot of traffic, and, when applicable, can result in your being billed for the traffic.

GCP region

(Required.) Enter the GCP region in which your Google Cloud is located. For more information, see Regions and Zones in the Google Cloud documentation.

Service account

Paste the JSON code for your Google Cloud service account.

Step 5

Click Test and make sure the test succeeds before you save the connector.

Step 6

Click Save.

Step 7

Make sure Ok is displayed in the Status column.
