Service Mapping for a Web Application

nikhil_agr20 · ‎07-16-2018

I have a Web Application for which I am doing Service Mapping. I gave the entry point as a httsp URL & started discovery. It discovered the F5 loadbalancer & IIS WebServer. After that it stopped without any error.

How can I add Application Server & MS-SQL Database server to complete the Map? Attached the map

Hello,

You are going to need to add a connectivity section to the IIS Virtual Directory Pattern that parses the URL out of the config file. Once you do that you should see the next hop IIS server and it may or may not find the database server. If it doesn't then you will have to do something similar in which you will create a connectivity section to pull out the configuration for the SQL server. It will most likely either be in the web.config file (make sure your URLs are correct so they go into the right IIS Website) or some other configuration file that may reference the ODBC DSN setup in Windows (which you can pull from the registry). Hope this helps.

Hello Nikhil,

Could you list the steps you took to get this resolved. I am running into a similar issue. The files I am looking for are in non-standard spots but want to make sure I have an understanding of the flow to get the new connectivity section setup.

Thanks.

Hi kmlutz4sn,

Did you get this figured out? I as well am trying to create a SQL connection step, however I haven't been able to find detailed enough steps to accomplish it.

Hi Nikil, Could you please share the steps which you followed to create a MSSQL connection section on IIS Virtual Directory Pattern?

Thanks

is traffic based discovery enabled in your maps and in Horizontal discovery?

- do you see any connections when you right click on any nodes of your map and choose to see the traffic based disco?

- also, is the config file got discovered where it has connections from your Web layer to App and DB layers?

- also, are you checking the map in "View" mode on the map if yes, just tweak that to "Edit" mode and see if you get any errors further in the map.

thanks,
