To install from an RPM (.rpm) package on a Redhat, CentOS, or other RPM-based system:
- Download the UCT-V
6.4.00
RPM (.rpm) package from the Gigamon Customer Portal. For assistance contact Contact Technical Support.
- Copy this package to your instance. Install the package with root privileges, for example:
$ ls gigamon-gigavue_uctv_6.4.00
_x86_64.rpm
$ sudo rpm -i gigamon-gigavue_uctv_6.4.00_x86_64.rpm
- Modify the /etc/uctv/uctv.conf file to configure and register the source and destination interfaces.The following
example registers the eth0 as the mirror source for both ingress and egress traffic and registers eth1
as the destination for this traffic as follows:
Note: If you make any changes to the UCT-V config file after the initial setup, you need to restart the agent and refresh or synchronize the inventory from GigaVUE-FM to reflect the changes and start traffic mirroring again. However, if you have an ongoing monitoring session that is active and functioning well, modifying the UCT-V config file can cause traffic to be lost until GigaVUE-FM performs an automatic synchronization every 15 minutes.
Example 1—Monitor ingress and egress traffic at interface eth0 and use the same interface to send out the mirrored packets
# eth0 mirror-src-ingress mirror-src-egress mirror-dst
Example 2—Monitor ingress and egress traffic at interface eth0 and use the interface eth1 to send out the mirrored packets
# eth0 mirror-src-ingress mirror-src-egress# eth1 mirror-dst
Example 3—Monitor ingress and egress traffic at interface eth0 and eth 1; use the interface eth1 to send out the mirrored packets
# eth0 mirror-src-ingress mirror-src-egress# eth1 mirror-src-ingress mirror-src-egress mirror-dst
- Save the file.
-
To enable the third-party orchestration, a configuration file /etc/gigamon-cloud.conf needs to be created with the following contents:
Registration:
groupName: <Monitoring Domain Name>
subGroupName: <Connection Name>
user: <username>
password: <password>
remoteIP: <controller list IP addresses separated by comma>
remotePort: 8891
- Run the following command to enable and restart the UCT-V:
sudo systemctl enable uctv
sudo systemctl restart uctv
To check the status of the UCT-V, run the following command:
$ sudo service uctv status
UCT-V is running
