People who only ever reach private services through the reverse proxy were
invisible to activity accounting. Active users are counted from user.LastLogin
or from the LastSeen of a peer they own, and neither column was written on the
proxy paths — so a person signing in via SSO to a proxied service, or a peer
serving one over the mesh, never showed up in the 24 hour numbers.
Both writes now happen where the proxy already authenticates:
- GenerateSessionToken stamps LastLogin after the session token is signed,
the same column and the same way the dashboard and device login paths do.
- ValidateTunnelPeer stamps the calling peer's LastSeen, the column its owner
activates through.
The policy lives in a new reverseproxy/activity manager rather than in the gRPC
service, matching the module layout the other reverse proxy domains use. It
skips what can never count — service users, embedded proxy peers and WASM
clients — and throttles peer writes to once an hour, well inside the window
accounting asks about and far above the proxy's five minute tunnel cache.
The peer write is a single indexed UPDATE that touches only
peer_status_last_seen. Connected and SessionStartedAt are left alone so the
session-ownership fencing MarkPeerConnectedIfNewerSession relies on is never
disturbed, and the timestamp comes from the database clock rather than the
caller, for the same reason the other status writers take it from there. The
caller's cutoff travels into the statement's WHERE, so concurrent requests for
one peer collapse into a single write instead of each acting on its own stale
read, and a peer that was never seen — NULL last seen, since Status is an
embedded pointer — still records its first activity.
Nothing outside the reverse proxy changes behaviour: the only addition
elsewhere is the RefreshPeerLastSeen store method the manager calls.
At proxy connect time, the declared cluster address is validated for
shape and checked for availability (`IsClusterAddressAvailable`), and
from then on the declaration is what routes the cluster's mappings to
the connection. Deployments that embed management through the
integrations seam may need a policy on that claim — deciding which
credential is allowed to declare which address.
This adds an optional `ProxyConnectAuthorizer` hook on
`ProxyServiceServer`, following the pattern of the existing `Set*` seams
(`SetServiceManager`, `SetAgentNetworkSynthesizer`,
`SetAgentNetworkLimitsService`, `SetProxyController`):
- A nil-able interface field plus `SetProxyConnectAuthorizer`, guarded
by the existing mutex.
- One call at the end of `validateProxyConnect`, so both
`GetMappingUpdate` and `SyncMappings` are covered by a single site.
- **Nothing installs it by default** — with the hook unset (always, in
this repo), behavior is byte-for-byte unchanged, which the tests pin.
Design details:
- The authorizer runs **last** — after input validation and the
availability check — and **outside** the account-scoped branch, so
management-wide tokens and token-less connects are also presented to it
rather than bypassing policy.
- The authorizer receives the presented `*types.ProxyAccessToken` (nil
when none), the proxy ID, and the declared address. Everything it needs
is already in the request/context; no proto or schema change.
- A plain error from the authorizer surfaces as `PermissionDenied`,
keeping an authorization rejection distinguishable from the
`AlreadyExists` used for address conflicts in proxy logs. A status error
passes through unchanged so implementations can pick their own code.
Store the per-account gateway endpoint as {domain, proxy_address} with a
global unique index on the full hostname; dedicated = (domain ==
proxy_address). Bootstrap becomes an explicit POST carrying exactly one
of proxy_address (server allocates an adjective-noun label beneath it)
or endpoint (claimed verbatim, address-first); provider create loses its
bootstrap side effect. PUT is a full replace with every field required —
the immutable identity fields must be echoed unchanged and a mismatch is
rejected with 422. A guarded DELETE releases the endpoint: refused with
412 while providers exist or a proxy is actively serving the endpoint
hostname (matched case-insensitively); re-creating bootstraps fresh. A
self-addressed pin excludes its address from the account's cluster allow
list, and the live mapping update path now addresses the serving proxy
from the synthesized service. Existing rows are migrated on all three
store engines.
