# Federation Setup and Operations
Per SPRINT_8200_0014_0003.
## Overview
Federation enables multi-site synchronization of canonical advisory data between Concelier instances. Sites can export bundles containing delta changes and import bundles from other sites to maintain synchronized vulnerability intelligence.
## Architecture

```
## Setup
### 1. Enable Federation
Configure federation in `concelier.yaml`:
```yaml
Federation:
Enabled: true
SiteId: "site-us-west-1" # Unique identifier for this site
DefaultCompressionLevel: 3
DefaultMaxItems: 10000
RequireSignature: true
FederationImport:
AllowedSites:
- "site-us-east-1"
- "site-eu-central-1"
MaxBundleSizeBytes: 104857600 # 100 MB
SkipSignatureOnTrustedSites: false
```
### 2. Configure Site Policies
Create site policies for each trusted federation partner:
```bash
# Add trusted site
stella feedser sites add site-us-east-1 \
--display-name "US East Production" \
--enabled
# Configure policy
stella feedser sites policy site-us-east-1 \
--max-bundle-size 100MB \
--allowed-sources nvd,ghsa,debian
```
### 3. Generate Signing Keys
For signed bundles, configure Authority keys:
```bash
# Generate federation signing key
stella authority keys generate \
--name federation-signer \
--algorithm ES256 \
--purpose federation
# Export public key for distribution
stella authority keys export federation-signer --public
```
## Import Operations
### API Import
```
POST /api/v1/federation/import
Content-Type: application/zstd
```
**Query Parameters:**
| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|-----------|------|---------|-------------|
| `dry_run` | bool | false | Validate without importing |
| `skip_signature` | bool | false | Skip signature verification (requires trust) |
| `on_conflict` | enum | prefer_remote | `prefer_remote`, `prefer_local`, `fail` |
| `force` | bool | false | Import even if cursor is not after current |
**Response:**
```json
{
"success": true,
"bundle_hash": "sha256:a1b2c3...",
"imported_cursor": "2025-01-15T10:30:00.000Z#0042",
"counts": {
"canonical_created": 100,
"canonical_updated": 25,
"canonical_skipped": 10,
"edges_added": 200,
"deletions_processed": 5
},
"conflicts": [],
"duration_ms": 1234
}
```
### CLI Import
```bash
# Import from file
stella feedser bundle import ./bundle.zst
# Import with dry run
stella feedser bundle import ./bundle.zst --dry-run
# Import from stdin (for pipes)
cat bundle.zst | stella feedser bundle import -
# Import without signature verification (testing only)
stella feedser bundle import ./bundle.zst --skip-signature
# Force import (override cursor check)
stella feedser bundle import ./bundle.zst --force
```
### Conflict Resolution
When conflicts occur between local and remote values:
| Strategy | Behavior |
|----------|----------|
| `prefer_remote` | Remote value wins (default) |
| `prefer_local` | Local value preserved |
| `fail` | Abort import on first conflict |
Conflicts are logged with full details:
```json
{
"merge_hash": "sha256:abc...",
"field": "severity",
"local_value": "high",
"remote_value": "critical",
"resolution": "prefer_remote"
}
```
## Site Management
### List Sites
```bash
stella feedser sites list
```
Output:
```
SITE ID STATUS LAST SYNC CURSOR
───────────────────────── ──────── ─────────────────── ──────────────────────────
site-us-east-1 enabled 2025-01-15 10:30 2025-01-15T10:30:00Z#0042
site-eu-central-1 enabled 2025-01-15 09:15 2025-01-15T09:15:00Z#0038
site-asia-pacific-1 disabled never -
```
### View Site History
```bash
stella feedser sites history site-us-east-1 --limit 10
```
### Update Site Policy
```bash
stella feedser sites policy site-us-east-1 \
--enabled false # Disable imports from this site
```
## Air-Gap Operations
For sites without network connectivity:
### Export for Transfer
```bash
# On connected site
stella feedser bundle export \
-c "2025-01-14T00:00:00Z#0000" \
-o ./delta-2025-01-15.zst
# Transfer via USB/secure media
```
### Import on Air-Gap Site
```bash
# On air-gapped site
stella feedser bundle import ./delta-2025-01-15.zst
# Verify import
stella feedser sites list
```
### Full Sync Workflow
1. **Initial Sync:**
```bash
# Export full dataset
stella feedser bundle export -o ./full-sync.zst
```
2. **Transfer to air-gap site**
3. **Import on air-gap:**
```bash
stella feedser bundle import ./full-sync.zst
```
4. **Subsequent Delta Syncs:**
```bash
# Get current cursor from air-gap site
stella feedser sites list # Note the cursor
# On connected site, export delta
stella feedser bundle export -c "{cursor}" -o ./delta.zst
# Transfer and import on air-gap
```
## Verification
### Validate Bundle Without Import
```bash
stella feedser bundle validate ./bundle.zst
```
Output:
```
Bundle: bundle.zst
Version: feedser-bundle/1.0
Site: site-us-east-1
Cursor: 2025-01-15T10:30:00.000Z#0042
Counts:
Canonicals: 1,234
Edges: 3,456
Deletions: 12
Total: 4,702
Verification:
Hash: ✓ Valid
Signature: ✓ Valid (key: sha256:abc...)
Format: ✓ Valid
Ready for import.
```
### Preview Import Impact
```bash
stella feedser bundle import ./bundle.zst --dry-run --json
```
## Monitoring
### Sync Status Endpoint
```
GET /api/v1/federation/sync/status
```
Response:
```json
{
"sites": [
{
"site_id": "site-us-east-1",
"enabled": true,
"last_sync_at": "2025-01-15T10:30:00Z",
"last_cursor": "2025-01-15T10:30:00.000Z#0042",
"bundles_imported": 156,
"total_items_imported": 45678
}
],
"local_cursor": "2025-01-15T10:35:00.000Z#0044"
}
```
### Event Stream
Import events are published to the `canonical-imported` stream:
```json
{
"canonical_id": "uuid",
"cve": "CVE-2024-1234",
"affects_key": "pkg:npm/express@4.0.0",
"merge_hash": "sha256:...",
"action": "Created",
"bundle_hash": "sha256:...",
"site_id": "site-us-east-1",
"imported_at": "2025-01-15T10:30:15Z"
}
```
### Cache Invalidation
After import, cache indexes are automatically updated:
- PURL index updated for affected packages
- CVE index updated for vulnerability lookups
- Existing cache entries invalidated for refresh
## Troubleshooting
### Common Issues
| Issue | Cause | Solution |
|-------|-------|----------|
| "Cursor not after current" | Bundle is stale | Use `--force` or export newer bundle |
| "Signature verification failed" | Key mismatch | Verify signing key is trusted |
| "Site not allowed" | Policy restriction | Add site to `AllowedSites` config |
| "Bundle too large" | Size limit exceeded | Increase `MaxBundleSizeBytes` or export smaller delta |
### Debug Logging
Enable verbose logging for federation operations:
```yaml
Logging:
LogLevel:
StellaOps.Concelier.Federation: Debug
```
### Verify Sync State
```bash
# Check local vs remote cursor
stella feedser sites status site-us-east-1
# List recent imports
stella feedser sites history site-us-east-1 --limit 5
# Verify specific canonical was imported
stella feedser canonical get sha256:mergehash...
```
## Best Practices
1. **Regular Sync Schedule:** Configure automated delta exports/imports on a schedule (e.g., hourly)
2. **Monitor Cursor Drift:** Alert if cursor falls too far behind
3. **Verify Signatures:** Only disable signature verification in development
4. **Size Bundles Appropriately:** For large deltas, split into multiple bundles
5. **Test Import Before Production:** Use `--dry-run` to validate bundles
6. **Maintain Key Trust:** Regularly rotate and verify federation signing keys
7. **Document Site Policies:** Keep a registry of trusted sites and their policies
