The "TSG OAM CLI User Guide" describes TSG hardware as a chassis of "four CPU sleds (MCN) and one switch sled (MXN)"; the OAM CLI runs on the switch sled and dispatches jobs to per-blade CLI agents on each MCN sled via a named internal management API called "Bifang API" for policy-related information -- a previously undocumented internal component name.
TSG device includes four CPU sleds (MCN) and one switch sled(MXN). Each MCN sled is connected to MXN sled via network interface. CLI command run on MXN sled, it can execute job on MCN sled via CLI agent which is deployed on each MCN sled. CLI command accesses Bifang API to get policy related information.

Release 24.04 (28 APR 2024) adds province/city-granularity ("administrative area") geo-tagging to every session and security-event log for both client and server -- client_country/client_super_administrative_area/ client_administrative_area/client_sub_administrative_area and the server-side equivalents -- plus Client ASN/Server ASN as dedicated Statistics Rule Metric datasets, confirming sub-national geolocation is a standard enrichment field across TSG's logging pipeline, not a specialized lookup.
The app_recommend Flink job (Recommendation.java, job name "RECOMMENDATION-APP-CIP") keys incoming traffic by (app_label, client_ip), computes a sliding-window top-N of active client IPs per identified application via TopnHotItem's priority queue, and HbaseSink persists the result as an app-to-client-IP-list association -- row key MD5(app_label), columns app_label/client_ip_list/last_update_time -- in HBase. This is the source of the "Recommend App Active Client IP" troubleshooting lookup referenced in galaxy-troubleshooting-api's Release 21.12 changelog.
galaxy-troubleshooting-api's Postman collection defines a full "DoS Threat Map" dashboard API suite (folder-scoped request names: dos-threat-map-top- source-countries, dos-threat-map-top-destination-countries, dos-threat-map- top-victims, dos-threat-map-attack-type, dos-threat-map-severity, dos-threat- map-destination-ip-distribution, dos-threat-map-attack-connection, dos-threat-map-attack-volume-summary, dos-threat-map-attack-volume-trend), plus a separate DNS-amplification "Resolver" detection dataset and a per-victim-IP historical traffic-trend query -- confirming Galaxy exposes operator-facing DDoS-detection/geolocation dashboards built on top of TSG telemetry, distinct from its censorship/content-blocking function.
The `session_record` schema includes explicit boolean-style flag columns ssl_esni_flag and ssl_ech_flag, confirming that TSG/Galaxy tags every session with whether Encrypted SNI or Encrypted ClientHello was used -- giving the operator session-level visibility into ECH/ESNI adoption even where it cannot decrypt the underlying SNI.
galaxy-troubleshooting-api's Release 22.08 (31 AUG 2022) changelog adds four dedicated "recommend" endpoints that resolve IMSI, IMEI, phone number, and APN to GTP tunnel-endpoint ID (TEID) -- i.e. mobile-core identity-to-tunnel correlation exposed as a first-class, individually testable API surface at Galaxy's OLAP layer, corroborating the tsg_olap subtree's relationship-gtpc-user component. A "Top Subscribers" report existed on the same platform until it was explicitly removed in Release 24.04 (28 APR 2024).
The same `session_record` schema includes a literal `mail_password` column alongside mail_account/mail_from/mail_to/mail_cc/mail_bcc/mail_subject/ mail_attachment_name and a full per-session `mail_eml_file` capture, plus `ftp_account` and `ftp_url` -- confirming Galaxy's OLAP layer stores cleartext mail and FTP credentials and full message content per session, not just connection metadata.
