## Running the Sensor as a Systemd Service {#running-sensor-systemd}

### 1. Configure Satellite Address
The Satellite (collector) address is configured in `/etc/levo/sensor/config.yaml`.
### Configure Satellite Address, Organization-Id and Environment

#### NOTE:
The default address for the collector in Systemd installations is `https://collector.levo.ai`.
This address assumes that Levo is hosting the Satellite for you, and you must also specify an organization ID (`organization-id`) via the config file.
If you wish, you may also host the Satellite yourself and specify the address of the collector in the self-hosted Satellite to direct the Sensor's traffic to it.
The Satellite address is configured in `/etc/default/levo-ebpf-sensor`. The default Satellite URL is `https://collector.levo.ai`.

Edit `/etc/default/levo-ebpf-sensor`, set the `LEVO_SATELLITE_URL` variable to the desired `host:port` value,
and set the `LEVO_ORG_ID` to the Organization ID fetched from the Levo Dashboard.
Set `LEVO_ENV` to the desired environment name in which you wish to see you applications on the Levo Dashboard.

Edit `/etc/levo/sensor/config.yaml`, set `satellite-url` (under Satellite Settings) to the desired `host:port` value,
and set `organization-id` to the Organization ID fetched from the Levo Dashboard

```yaml
```bash
...
organization-id: <Org ID>
# --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Satellite Settings:
# --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

# Levo Organization ID. This must be specified when the collector is hosted by Levo.
# organization-id: ""

# host:port for the collector service receiving the Sensor's API traces.
satellite-url: <Use the default (https://collector.levo.ai) or set to a custom address>
LEVO_ENV="your-env"
LEVO_SATELLITE_URL="your-satellite-url"
LEVO_ORG_ID="your-org-id"
...
```
**Note**: If you change the Satellite address later, you have to restart the Sensor, since it's not a hot property.

### 2. Configure Application Name
The `Application Name` is configured in `/etc/levo/sensor/config.yaml`.

Edit `/etc/levo/sensor/config.yaml`, and set `default-service-name` to the `Application Name` chosen earlier.

```yaml
# --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Default Application Name:
#
# Auto discovered API endpoints and their OpenAPI specifications are show in the API Catalog
# grouped under this application name. The application name helps segregate and group API
# endpoints from different environments.
# --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#
default-service-name: <'Application Name' chosen earlier>
# --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
```

### Configure sensor environment
The eBPF sensor environment is configured in `/etc/default/levo-ebpf-sensor`. The default env value is `staging`

Edit `/etc/default/levo-ebpf-sensor`, and set `LEVO_ENV` to the desired env value (eg. `prod`, `qa`)
Additional sensor configs are present in the file `/etc/levo/sensor/config.yaml`

```bash
# Environment Variables for levo-ebpf-sensor.service
MALLOC_CONF="background_thread:true,narenas:1,tcache:false,dirty_decay_ms:0,muzzy_decay_ms:0,abort_conf:true"
LEVO_ENV="staging"
```

**Note**: If you change the `Application Name` later, you have to restart the Sensor, since it's not a hot property.
