Connected to CSSM Through CSLU
Overview:
Here, product instances in the network are connected to CSLU, and CSLU becomes the single point of interface
with CSSM. A product instance can be configured to push the required information to CSLU. Alternatively,
CSLU can be set-up to pull the required information from a product instance at a configurable frequency.
Product instance-initiated communication (push): A product instance initiates communication with CSLU,
by connecting to a REST endpoint in CSLU. Data that is sent includes RUM reports and requests for
authorization codes and trust codes. You can configure the product instance to automatically send RUM
reports to CSLU at required intervals. This is the default method for a product instance.
CSLU-initiated communication (pull): To initiate the retrieval of information from a product instance, CSLU
uses NETCONF, or RESTCONF, or gRPC with YANG models, or native REST APIs, to connect to the
product instance. Supported workflows include receiving RUM reports from the product instance and sending
the same to CSSM, authorization code installation, trust code installation, and application of policies.
