Installing Linux agent

Installing the Linux Agent over CWP

There are several ways to install agents in Genian NAC 6.0.

This is the guide for how to install the agent by accessing the CWP page.

Access the CWP page. https://policy_server_IP-or-cloudsite_name/agent
Select the Linux icon from the OS-specific agent icon and download the file.
Open Terminal in your Linux distribution and navigate to the Download folder. (Based on Ubuntu)
Run the installer in the download directory as follows:
- cd ~/Download
- chmod 755 lnxagent_*Serveraddress*
- sudo ./lnxagent_*Serveraddress*
If prompted, provide the IP or FQDN of your Policy Server.

Note

Depending on the Linux distribution, the download path for the Linux Agent installer may vary.
The installer cannot run if the user does not have permission to installer, so it must be run as an administrator. The process will automatically run when the file ends.
This installer may also be obtained and distributed via other means.

Connect to Web Console.
Go to the Management > Node menu.
Access the IP of the node you wish to check.
If the agent icon is displayed on the Node List screen, the installation and information registration are completed normally.
