> In terms of gRPC implementation, what's the idea of modifying the configurations? If I understand correctly, this is going to be similar with the backend dynamic configurations, one should expose a gRPC service providing the latest configs to the OAP, and the OAP responds these to the agent, right? @kezhenxu94 The agent configuration isn't the agent dynamic configuration. They may logically be supported in the same features, but they are plugins' choices. > If that's the case, I would suggest reversing the roles (server / client) of OAP and "user-defined gRPC service", which makes it possible for the CLI to update the configs without a long-running process. The agent wouldn't accept any remote request, because of 2 reasons 1. High security leak risk. Users could accidentally open this port on the internal(even intranet is same), then the app could be controlled remotely. 2. Dynamic configuration of the agent should be driven and managed by the configuration center(s), as we have implemented the integration with most popular tools. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
