CONSOLE INSTALLATION STEPS:	Step 1. Install the Andrisoft repository First make sure that the Andrisoft repository is installed. [root@localhost ~]# rpm -Uvh http://www.andrisoft.com/files/redhat6/WANrepo-7.1-0.noarch.rpm Step 2. Install the packages Install the WANconsole package and dependencies. Configure and start ntpd to prevent clock de-synchronization issues. [root@localhost ~]# yum update [root@localhost ~]# yum install WANconsole [root@localhost ~]# service ntpd start [root@localhost ~]# chkconfig --level 345 ntpd on Step 3. Configure the MySQL service By default, the MySQL server does not have a password set. Start the MySQL server and set a password for the MySQL root user. If you deploy Sensors or Filters on remote systems, make sure that the MySQL server is accessible by opening port tcp/3306 in the firewall. [root@localhost ~]# nano /etc/my.cnf #set "max_allowed_packet=64M", "max_connections=600" and "skip-name-resolve" in the [mysqld] section [root@localhost ~]# service mysqld start [root@localhost ~]# /usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root password 'new-password' [root@localhost ~]# service mysqld restart [root@localhost ~]# chkconfig --level 345 mysqld on Step 4. Configure the Apache service Edit /etc/php.ini and disable SeLinux. [root@localhost ~]# nano /etc/php.ini #set date.timezone in the [Date] section, according to http://php.net/manual/en/timezones.php [root@localhost ~]# service httpd restart [root@localhost ~]# setenforce 0 ; nano /etc/selinux/config #set SELINUX=disabled Step 5. Install the Console database Finish installing the Console by running the /opt/andrisoft/bin/install_console script. Enter the MySQL root password you set on step 3, and provide a new password for the Console database. [root@localhost ~]# /opt/andrisoft/bin/install_console Step 6. Configure the Supervisor The WANsupervisor daemon must be installed and started on all systems. You have to run the /opt/andrisoft/bin/install_supervisor script to enter the Console's IP address and database password you set on step 5. [root@localhost ~]# /opt/andrisoft/bin/install_supervisor [root@localhost ~]# service WANsupervisor start [root@localhost ~]# chkconfig --level 345 WANsupervisor on Step 7. Access the Console The Console web interface is accessible by pointing your web browser to http://<hostname>/wanguard or http://<hostname>/wansight, where <hostname> is the name of the server running the Console. The default username is "admin" with the password "changeme".

SENSOR INSTALLATION STEPS:	Step 1. Install the Andrisoft repository Install the repository if it's not already installed. [root@localhost ~]# rpm -Uvh http://www.andrisoft.com/files/redhat6/WANrepo-7.1-0.noarch.rpm Step 2. Install the packages Install the WANsensor package and dependencies. Configure and start ntpd to prevent clock de-synchronization issues. [root@localhost ~]# yum update [root@localhost ~]# yum install WANsensor [root@localhost ~]# service ntpd start [root@localhost ~]# chkconfig --level 345 ntpd on Step 3. Configure and start the Supervisor This step is required if you haven't previously installed and configured WANsupervisor on the target system. In order to configure the Supervisor, you have to run the /opt/andrisoft/bin/install_supervisor script to enter the Console IP address and database password. [root@localhost ~]# /opt/andrisoft/bin/install_supervisor [root@localhost ~]# service WANsupervisor start [root@localhost ~]# chkconfig --level 345 WANsupervisor on Step 4. Setup the Sensor Log into the Console to setup the Sensor(s). Sensors are started, monitored and stopped by the WANsupervisor daemon, so make sure the WANsupervisor service is always running.

FILTER INSTALLATION STEPS:	Step 1. Install the Andrisoft repository Install the repository if it's not already installed. [root@localhost ~]# rpm -Uvh http://www.andrisoft.com/files/redhat6/WANrepo-7.1-0.noarch.rpm Step 2. Install the packages Install the WANfilter package and dependencies. Configure and start ntpd to prevent clock de-synchronization issues. [root@localhost ~]# yum update [root@localhost ~]# yum install WANfilter [root@localhost ~]# service ntpd start [root@localhost ~]# chkconfig --level 345 ntpd on Step 3. Configure and start the Supervisor This step is required if you haven't previously installed and configured WANsupervisor on the target system. In order to configure the Supervisor, you have to run the /opt/andrisoft/bin/install_supervisor script to enter the Console IP address and database password. [root@localhost ~]# /opt/andrisoft/bin/install_supervisor [root@localhost ~]# service WANsupervisor start [root@localhost ~]# chkconfig --level 345 WANsupervisor on Step 4. Remove local firewall rules The iptables service overrules the Filter, and therefore has to be stopped. The Filter will manage the firewall rules. [root@localhost ~]# chkconfig --level 2345 iptables off [root@localhost ~]# service iptables stop Step 5. Setup the Filter Log in to the Console to set up Filter(s). Filters are started, monitored and stopped by the WANsupervisor daemon, so make sure the WANsupervisor service is always running.
