First Party Integration

First-Party Mode enables the module to send/receive data to/from the sensor, acting as a reverse-proxy for client requests and sensor activities.

To setup First-Party mode on F5 BigIP:

Configuring Pool: px_client_pool

This pool will be used to communicate with HUMAN’s CDN to fetch the JavaScript sensor script content.

1. Under Local Traffic > Pools > Pool List create a new pool.
2. Set the pool name to: px_client_pool.
3. Set Health Monitor to tcp_half_open.
4. Select new FQDN Node.
5. Set Node Name and Address to client.perimeterx.net
6. Set the Service Port to 443.
7. Set Auto Populate to Enabled.
8. Click Add & Finished.

Configuring Pool: px_captcha_pool

This pool is used to communicate with HUMAN’s CDN to fetch the challenge script content.

1. Under Local Traffic > Pools > Pool List, create a new pool.
2. Set the pool name to: px_captcha_pool.
3. Set Health Monitor to tcp_half_open.
4. Select new FQDN Node.
5. Set both Node Name and Address to captcha.px-cdn.net
6. Set the Service Port to 443.
7. Set Auto Populate to Enabled.
8. Click Add & Finished.

Configuring Pool: px_xhr_pool

This pool is used to communicate with HUMAN’s cloud service to post data collected from the JavaScript sensor.

1. Under Local Traffic > Pools > Pool List, create a new pool.

2. Set the pool name to: px_xhr_pool.

3. Set Health Monitor to tcp_half_open.

4. Select new FQDN Node.

5. Set Node Name and address to collector-<APP_ID>.perimeterx.net

   The App Id can be retrieved from the HUMAN Console under Admin > Applications.Set the Service Port to 443. 6. Set Auto Populate to Enabled. 7. Click Add & Finished
