Aembit Client ID

The Aembit Client ID method serves as a fallback for Client Workload identification when other suitable methods are unavailable. This method entails generating a unique ID by the Aembit Cloud, which is then provisioned to the Client Workload.

Applicable Deployment Type

This method is suitable for Aembit Edge-based deployments.

Configuration

Aembit Cloud

1. Create a new Client Workload.
2. Choose “Aembit Client ID” for client identification.
3. Complete the remaining fields.
4. Copy the newly generated ID.
5. Save the Client Workload.

Client Workload

Virtual Machine Deployment

During Agent Proxy installation, specify the CLIENT_WORKLOAD_ID environment variable.

CLIENT_WORKLOAD_ID=<ClientWorkloadID> AEMBIT_TENANT_ID=<TenantID> AEMBIT_AGENT_CONTROLLER_ID=<AgentControllerId> ./install

Kubernetes

Add the aembit.io/agent-inject annotation to your Client Workload.

See the example below:

apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: example-app
spec:
  replicas: 1
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: example-app
  template:
    metadata:
      labels:
        app: example-app
      annotations:
        aembit.io/agent-inject: "enabled"
        aembit.io/client-id: "7e75e718-7634-480b-9f7b-a07bb5a4f11d"
