NetworkBrain Requirements for API Server Setup

  • The minimum resource unit for an API Server scope is a subscription that includes all the resources under it. Therefore, NetworkBrain does not recommend separating resources under one subscription to a different API Server.
  • The API Server is associated with an AD Tenant. Use IAM to control the subscription level of resources API discovery. If you have multiple AD Tenants, set up at least one API Server for each AD Tenant.
  • NetworkBrain does not retrieve tenant details (including tenant name) using Azure Management APIs but instead creates a random tenant name. However, as below, you can manually define your Tenant Name in the API server manager:
    Graphical user interface, applicationDescription automatically generated
  • To collect data from Azure successfully, NetworkBrain Front Server must have access to *.core.windows.net, *.azure.com, *.microsoft.com, and *.microsoftonline.com.
