Description
When NethSecurity is installed on a physical Nethesis box, my.nethesis.it should report the following hardware information:
- Manufacturer
- Model
- Hardware version
These values are available through DMI:
root@NethSec:~# cat /sys/class/dmi/id/board_vendor
Nethesis
root@NethSec:~# cat /sys/class/dmi/id/product_name
NethBox Z1+
root@NethSec:~# cat /sys/class/dmi/id/product_version
1.0
The hardware version is useful for tracking different revisions introduced during the lifecycle of the same appliance model.
Proposed solution
Read and send the following DMI fields to my.nethesis.it:
| Information |
DMI field |
| Manufacturer |
/sys/class/dmi/id/board_vendor |
| Model |
/sys/class/dmi/id/product_name |
| Hardware version |
/sys/class/dmi/id/product_version |
Display these values in the appliance details on the new my.nethesis.it.
Additional context
The hardware version identifies the physical revision of the appliance and must not be confused with the NethSecurity software version.
The information should be collected only when the corresponding DMI fields are available.
