Planet Overview

Administering your entire planet

The Planet Overview page enables the following actions:

  1. Add and manage a site/application.

  2. Generate an SSL certificate for a site/application using the Let's Encrypt service.

  3. Configuring Notifications and Alerts.

Note that in the discussion below, "site" and "web application" are synonymous.

This section allows you to add and modify web applications. It does not provide the ability to delete them.

Deleting a web application is done at the bottom of the Web Proxy page.

Adding a Web Application

Creating a new web application is done by duplicating an existing one, and then editing the one that is created.

  • Select an existing site that is the most similar to the one you want to add.

  • Select its "Duplicate Application" button.

  • This will clone the site and create a new one with identical settings, which you can then edit.

Editing a Web Application

Clicking on a site name will open it in the Web Proxy page, where it can be edited.

Generating a New SSL Certificate

Reblaze integrates with Let's Encrypt to provide free SSL Certificates.

By clicking on the "Generate Certificate" button at the end of an entry in the site list, you can:

  • Generate a new certificate without attaching it to a site

  • Generate a new certificate and immediately attach it to a site. If the site has an existing certificate, it will be replaced by the new one.

In either case, this is the dialog you will see:

Just choose the button for the activity you want.

Notification and Alert Settings

At the bottom of the Planet Overview are the Notification Settings.

When a Dynamic Rule is violated, Reblaze can send immediate alerts to a list of one or more email addresses, SMS numbers, and hooks (e.g., Slack).

In addition, a cumulative report of the previous week's violations can be sent to one or more email addresses.

This section defines one or more Notification Groups for these notifications. Clicking on the "+" button on the right will display this dialog:

The settings for a Notification Group are as follows.

A name you choose for display in the Group listing.

Rules

An existing Notification Group can be edited by clicking on its listing, or deleted by clicking on the trash button at the right end of its listing.
