11. Ingest Tokens

Requires the VDURA Sentinel admin token. This page shows nothing else until that token is entered; see 2.4. It was not explored further in this guide since it requires operator credentials this pass didn’t have.

Sidebar item: Ingest tokens. Per its own gate screen: “Managing ingest tokens requires the Sentinel admin token.”

An ingest token is the credential a single site’s on-site collector presents when it pushes its telemetry snapshot to VDURA Sentinel. Each site gets its own token rather than sharing one, so a token can be revoked for just that site (for example, if a site is decommissioned) without affecting any other site’s data flow.
