Version 1 Current »

Note

Before you start the deployment, complete the following:

  • Ensure that your Docker environment meets the minimum deployment requirements.
  • Ensure that there are no SSH processes listening on port 22. You must terminate these SSH processes for the Data Connector to collect data from NIOS .
  • Ensure that ports 514 and 6514 are not used by other processes for secure syslog for RPZ hits data.
  • Infoblox recommends that you use Docker version 17.09 or below (except for 17.05 and 17.06), or version 18.09 or above, to avoid an issue in which the Docker container might re-deploy continuously, resulting in multiple deployments of the on-prem host. In addition, Kubernetes is not supported.

To deploy on-prem hosts using the Infoblox Docker container, complete the following:

  1. In the Cloud Services Portal, go to Administration -> Downloads.

  2. On the Downloads page, click Download Package for Docker, and then save the .tar.gz file on your system.

  3. Set up the Docker environment on your system. Ensure that the Docker version is supported, as described in Deployment Requirements. For information about how to install Docker, refer to the Docker Documentation.

  4. Download the Infoblox Docker image tar file to your server, and then execute the following command at root. Note that you must have root privileges to execute Docker commands.

    # docker load -i <BloxOne_OnPrem_Docker_<VERSION>.tar.gz

    The system displays the download process. The following is a sample display:

Loaded image: infobloxcto/onprem.agent:x.x.xx

  5. Execute the following command to verify that the Infoblox Docker image has been downloaded properly:

    # docker images
    REPOSITORY                   TAG      IMAGE ID        CREATED         SIZE

infobloxcto/onprem.agent    0.1.xx    68f5ed0a1645    20 hours ago    87.81 MB

  6. On the Docker system, execute the following command:

    sudo docker run -d --name blox.noa --restart=always --net=host -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock infobloxcto/onprem.agent:<VERSION> --jointoken=<join_token>

    Note

    You must use “blox.noa” as the container name. Do not change this. You can capture the onprem.agent Version in the “Loaded image” field when you download the Infoblox Docker image. Note that only Docker image version 3.1.11 or greater supports the join token option.

  7. You can verify that the Infoblox Docker container images are properly deployed on the system by using the following command:
    # docker ps
  8. You have now successfully deployed the Data Connector on-prem host. It might take a couple of minutes for the Data Connector and the Cloud Services Portal to connect.
  9. To check the current status of the Data Connector, you can go to Manage -> On-Prem Hosts in the Cloud Services Portal. For more information, see Managing Data Connectors.
