Applying security for ESB proxy services...


Security is a major factor we consider when it comes to each and every deployment. WSO2 Enterprise Service Bus also capable of securing services.

WSO2 ESB 4.8 or previous versions were having the capability of applying the security for a proxy service from Admin Console as in [1]

However, From ESB 4.9.0 , we can no longer apply security for a proxy service from Admin Console of the ESB. We need to use WSO2 Developer Studio version 3.8 for this requirement for ESB 4.9.0.


You can find the documentation on  applying security to ESB 4.9.0 based proxy service here[2].  However, i would like to add a small modification to the doc in [2] at the end.

After securing the proxy according to the document, We need to create the Composite Application Project and export the CAR file. When exporting the CAR file, by default the server role of the Registry project is being selected as GovernanceRegistry as in the bellow image.




When we deploy that CAR file in ESB, We are getting following exception [3] due to above Server Role.

In order to fix the problem, we need to change the server role to ESB as bellow since we are going to deploy it in ESB.

How to get the Client's IP Address in WSO2 API Manager/ WSO2 ESB

Middleware solutions are designed to communicate with multiple parties and most of them are integrations. While integration different systems, It is required to validate the requests and collect statistics. When it comes to collecting statistics, Client's / Request Originator's IP Address plays a vital role.

In order to publish the client's IP to the stat collector, We need to extract the client's IP from the request received to the server.

When the deployment contains WSO2 API Manager or WSO2 Enterprise Service Bus, We can obtain the client's IP address using a property mediator in the InSequence.

If the deployment has a Load Balancer in front of ESB/APIManager, We can use X-Forwarded-For Header property as explained in the blog post of Firzhan.

In a deployment which doest not has Load Balancer in front of WSO2 ESB / API Manager, We can use REMOTE_ADDR to obtain the client's IP Address.

We can extract it as follows with using a property mediator.


 <property name="api.ut.REMOTE_ADDR"
                            expression="get-property('axis2','REMOTE_ADDR')"/&gt

Then we can use it in the sequence. As an example, if we extract the IP Address as above and log it, synapse configuration for it will look like bellow.


<property name="api.ut.REMOTE_ADDR"
                            expression="get-property('axis2','REMOTE_ADDR')"/>
                  <log level="full">
                     <property name="Actual Remote Address"
                               expression="get-property('api.ut.REMOTE_ADDR')"/>
                  </log>

You can use this in the InSequence of ESB or API Manager to obtain the client's IP Address.

Customize HTTP Server Response Header in WSO2 API Manager / WSO2 ESB


You may know that in the response header from WSO2 ESB invocations or WSO2 API Manager invocations, You are getting "Server" header as bellow.

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Access-Control-Allow-Headers: authorization,Access-Control-Allow-Origin,Content-Type,SOAPAction
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
Access-Control-Allow-Methods: POST,GET,DELETE,PUT,HEAD
Content-Type: application/json
Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true
Date: Sat, 09 Apr 2016 20:02:58 GMT
Server: WSO2-PassThrough-HTTP
Transfer-Encoding: chunked
Connection: Keep-Alive

{
  "origin": "50.185.34.119"
}


You can see that Server Header Contains WSO2 as bellow.

Server: WSO2-PassThrough-HTTP

Sometimes there are situations like It needs to customize this header.

Eg: If we need to customize this as bellow.

Server: PassThrough-HTTP

What we need to do is , Add the http.origin-server to passthru-http.properties file located in ESB_HOME/repository/conf/ directory with customized value as bellow.


http.origin-server=PassThrough-HTTP

Once you restart the server, Above response will be changed as bellow.

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Access-Control-Allow-Headers: authorization,Access-Control-Allow-Origin,Content-Type,SOAPAction
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
Access-Control-Allow-Methods: POST,GET,DELETE,PUT,HEAD
Content-Type: application/json
Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true
Date: Sat, 09 Apr 2016 20:11:47 GMT
Server: PassThrough-HTTP
Transfer-Encoding: chunked
Connection: Keep-Alive

{
  "origin": "50.185.34.119"
}

ActiveMQ - WSO2 ESB - Redelivery Delay - MaximumRedeliveries Configuration


There are use cases which we need to configure Redelivery Delay and the Maximum Redeliveries for Message Consumers of Activemq.

When consuming ActiveMq Queue, we can configure these parameters as mentioned in [1]

WSO2 ESB also can act as a message consumer and a message producer. Information of configuring that can be found in ESB documentation. [2]  Then we can find Consumer / Producer configurations in [3]

In ESB JMS proxy, we can configure Redelivery Delay and MaximumRedeliveries with using following parameters.

Eg:  By default Redelivery Delay in ActiveMq is one second and MaximumRedelivery count is 6. If you need to change the as bellow, you can do it with following parameters in the proxy service.

Redelivery Delay - 3 Seconds
MaximumRedelivery Count - 2


   <parameter name="redeliveryPolicy.maximumRedeliveries">2</parameter>
   <parameter name="transport.jms.SessionTransacted">true</parameter>
   <parameter name="redeliveryPolicy.redeliveryDelay">3000</parameter>
   <parameter name="transport.jms.CacheLevel">consumer</parameter>

Other than enabling the default configurations for JMS transport receiver, you dont need to add any other parameters to the axis2.xml to achive this.

Here is a sample proxy service which i have added above parameters.

Tested Versions : ESB 4.9.0 / Apache ActiveMQ 5.10.0


<proxy xmlns="http://ws.apache.org/ns/synapse"
       name="JMStoHTTPStockQuoteProxy"
       transports="jms"
       statistics="disable"
       trace="disable"
       startOnLoad="true">
    <target>
        <inSequence>
            <log level="full">
                <property name="Status" value=" Consuming the message"/>

When we configure these redelivery parameters, we need to make sure that we have enabled transactions for the proxy. We have done it using following parameter.

<parameter name="transport.jms.SessionTransacted">true</parameter>

Once we enable transactions, If the transaction is successful there is no redelivery happens.  So, in order to test the redelivery functionality, After consuming the message, we need to RollBack the transaction. In order to do that we need add following parameter inside the InSequence of the proxy service.


<property name="SET_ROLLBACK_ONLY" value="true" scope="axis2"/>

With above property, we notify the server that, The tranaction is Rollbacked.

All these properties are passed in to the server when we make the connection from ESB to the Message Broker. So, at that time we need to specify all these parameters.
