This section explains how to configure system‑wide Discovery settings and upload a plugin.

Results Delivery

This setting enables you to configure a connection to the Certificate Manager. Once configured, scan results are automatically forwarded to the Certificate Manager for further review and management.


Explanation of fields include:  

Field

Value

Certificate Manager URL

The web address of your Certificate Manager instance (must include the namespace path, not just the server address) 

Certificate Manager API Key

Add your API authentication token. Get this token from your Certificate Manager administrator. 

Certificate Manager Root Certificate (Optional)

Provide the root certificate if your Certificate Manager uses self-signed or internal CA certificates. Leave blank if using publicly trusted certificates.

If SSL certificate verification is needed, a dialog appears showing certificate details: 

  • Certificate subject (who it's issued to) 
  • Issuer (who signed it) 
  • Serial number and fingerprint 
  • Valid dates (from/to) 
  • Full PEM certificate text 

Review the certificate information carefully and click Trust Certificate.

Verify the connection is tested then Click Save.


You cannot save your configuration until you've tested the connection. 

Plugins

Follow the below steps to upload a plugin:

Creating the Plugin Tar File

First, build your plugin Docker image according to the Discovery Plugin Spec. Then create a tar file:

# Example: Save your plugin image to a tar file
docker save my-plugin:1.0.0 -o my-plugin.tar

Note that the image name cannot begin with "cspd/discovery/", or the upload endpoint (below) will reject it. So, in the above example, my-plugin:1.0.0 is fine, but cspd/discovery/plugins/my-plugin:1.0.0 would be rejected. You must re-tag the image (and remove the un-allowed tag), then do the docker save.

1. Click the Plugins tab, To select the plugin file, click the Browse File button.

2. Once the plugin is selected, click the Upload Plugin button to proceed with the upload.
