Internet.nl Dashboard

The internet.nl dashboard allows you to visualize batch scans from the internet.nl API. It allows:

  • Multiple user accounts that manage their own lists of domains
  • Domain managements in various lists up to thousands of domains per list
  • Spreadsheet uploads / downloads of lists for offline bulk list editing
  • Monitoring of ongoing scans
  • Repeating scans
  • Reports with results in tables, diagrams and comparisons to previous reports and spreadsheet exports
  • Publishing reports for outside users, including automatic publishing
  • E-Mail notifications on new reports
  • User settings for what field is visible
  • Second factor authentication
  • Seamless internet.nl API integration

Screenshots

Some screenshots can be found at: https://dashboard.internet.nl/#/tour

List management has options for configuration, adding domains, direct scanning, scheduled scanning, sharing, exporting to spreadsheets and of course deletion.

It's possible to upload domains in Excel, ODS and CSV files domains. Examples are available on the upload page

Scans can be performed simultaneously. The scan monitor shows the progress of each scan and allows for cancelling scans. The image shows several scans, of which one is still running. Our demo scan is finished and a report is ready.

The report is printer friendly and contains several graphs and a result table. It's even possible to download the report as a spreadsheet. In the screenshot all IPv6 metrics are now visible in the report. Enable or disable the entire group with one click and even include an average.

All results are visible in a table. The table is split into several categories and only shows the information that is needed. The table has a power feature: it's possible to compare data with a second report and see improvements/declines for all domains that are in both reports. It's possible to filter domains and view the complete report on internet.nl. Sorting of results is available.

These bar are more versatile than meets the eye. It's possible to compare reports (up to five) and they are available for every category and subcategory (such as IPv6, DNSSEC, TLS).

Every time a list is scanned, the data in the timeline grows. The timeline allow comparing multiple lists over time, showing multiple lines.

Reports can be exported to Excel, Libreoffice and CSV data. The Excel spreadsheet includes some statistics over the presented metrics.

Reports can be shared with the world or with a select audience. Using the sharing option anyone with the link, or anyone with the password, can view the report and take action.

Be notified when a scan is finished. The notification includes an overview of the scan results, including the major changes compared to the previous scan

System requirements

The dashboard runs on modest hardware. For measuring, it uses a configurable internet.nl API account. The API comes from an internet.nl installation.

A server with 16 gig of ram, 320 gig disk space and 6 cores can handle dozens of accounts each with their own lists. Lists up to 5000 domains process fine, albeit slower in busy periods. We've seen that working with lists of 25.000 domains or more is possible in this configuration with a scanning interval of every two weeks. Of course more beefy setups make the dashboard more responsive in those kinds of high volume usage.

Deployment information

The dashboard consists of three parts: a server config, the backend logic and a separate front-end. These are located in the following repositories:

The server ties all of these together, but it's very much possible to just run the backend and frontend yourself.

There is currently an open issue to make deployment of the dashboard easier in other environments.

The dashboard needs an internet.nl API to run, which requires a configured internet.nl instance. More information about that is listed in the internet.nl repo: https://github.com/internetstandards/Internet.nl/

Developer Documentation

Badges

These instructions will help you set up a development version of the dashboard.

Getting started

Keywords: quickstart, installation

1: Install dependencies on your system

Setup your system to run this software using your favourite package manager.

MacOS (brew)

brew install git python3 direnv

Debian Linux (apt)

apt-get install git python3 direnv

Redhat/CentOS (yum)

yum install git python3 direnv

Or download and install each package separately:

  • make (required, pre-installed on most systems)
  • git (required, download and install)
  • python3 (required, download and install, 3.8 or higher)
  • direnv (recommended, download and install, then follow setup instructions, see Direnv section below)
  • Docker (recommended, follow instructions to install.)
  • ShellCheck (recommended, follow instructions to install

2: Install direnv correctly

Then set up direnv, the right command depends on your shell:

BASH Add the following line at the end of the ~/.bashrc file:

eval "$(direnv hook bash)"

Make sure it appears even after rvm, git-prompt and other shell extensions that manipulate the prompt.

ZSH Add the following line at the end of the ~/.zshrc file:

eval "$(direnv hook zsh)"

FISH Add the following line at the end of the ~/.config/fish/config.fish file:

eval (direnv hook fish)

TCSH Add the following line at the end of the ~/.cshrc file:

eval `direnv hook tcsh`

3: Generic install steps

In a directory of your choosing, download the software and enter the directory:

git clone --recursive https://https://github.com/internetstandards/Internet.nl-dashboard && cd Internet.nl-dashboard/

Running make once to create a development Virtualenv and setup the App and its dependencies. Running make without arguments by default also runs basic checks and tests to verify project code quality.

make

After completing successfully Web Security Map development server is available to run:

make run

If you want to run the frontend, or a worker, or the broker, run:

make run-frontend

Now visit the website and/or the admin website at http://127.0.0.1:8000 (credentials: dashboard_admin:admin).

To prepare the shell environment for local development. This way you can run the 'dashboard' command.

direnv allow

After completing successfully Dashboard is available to run. For example, to show a list of commands:

dashboard help

To create your first user:

dashboard createsuperuser

Development:

dashboard migrate
dashboard loaddata dashboard_development.json

Optional Steps

If your shell support tab completion you can get a complete list of supported commands by tabbing make:

make <tab><tab>

4: Common tasks

Update dependencies/requirements

Python dependencies are managed using pip-tools. See requirements.in and requirements-dev.in.

For convenience the following command can be used to update all Python dependencies (within their version boundaries):

make update_requirements

The dependency on Web Security Map is version pinned by a Git SHA in the Websecmap Gitlab repo. The following command will lookup the SHA for the current master in Gitlab, update the requirements.in file, update the dependencies, and even commit everything to Git.

make update_requirement_websecmap

FAQ / Troubleshooting

Missing xcode (mac users)

During installation mac users might get the following error, due to not having xcode installed or updated.

xcrun: error: invalid active developer path (/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools), missing xcrun at: /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/xcrun

You can update / install xcode tools with the following command:

xcode-select --install

Missing Docker Daemon (mac users)

While docker is installed using brew in prior steps, you probably want to have a gui controlling docker.

Docker for mac can be downloaded here: https://download.docker.com/mac/stable/Docker.dmg

You can also visit the docker website and get the link using the time tested Oracle(tm) download strategy, here: https://hub.docker.com/editions/community/docker-ce-desktop-mac

Missing zstd or other stuff from LD

brew install zstd which zstd set -x LDFLAGS -L/opt/homebrew/bin/zstd set -x LDFLAGS -L/opt/homebrew/lib/ -L/opt/homebrew/openssl/lib

Cannot compile psycopg2 on m1 mac:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/66888087/cannot-install-psycopg2-with-pip3-on-m1-mac TLDR, run below commands and try again:

export LDFLAGS="-L/opt/homebrew/opt/[email protected]/lib -L/opt/homebrew/opt/libpq/lib"
export CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/homebrew/opt/[email protected]/include -I/opt/homebrew/opt/libpq/include"

Missing lib magic on mac:

Where you need the x86 version, because this library is x86 only due cffi not supporting m1: arch -x86_64 /usr/local/bin/brew install libmagic

Because libmagic supresses loading errors, you'll only find out that the wrong binary is getting loaded when adding print statements there. If the library doesn't load it's probably because:

/opt/local/lib/libmagic.dylib
dlopen(/opt/local/lib/libmagic.dylib, 6): image not found
/usr/local/lib/libmagic.dylib
dlopen(/usr/local/lib/libmagic.dylib, 6): image not found
/opt/homebrew/lib/libmagic.dylib
dlopen(/opt/homebrew/lib/libmagic.dylib, 6): no suitable image found.  Did find:
	/opt/homebrew/lib/libmagic.dylib: mach-o, but wrong architecture
	/opt/homebrew/Cellar/libmagic/5.41/lib/libmagic.1.dylib: mach-o, but wrong architecture

So you should install the Intel binary for this version.

You can use the alternative brew installation in /usr/local/bin and run: arch -x86_64 sh, cd /usr/local/bin, /brew install --build-from-source libmagic

and run: arch -x86_64 brew install libmagic You'll get an error but at least there is now an x64/intel file at: /usr/local/lib/libmagic.dylib
