Purpose
To install the Igel Cloud Gateway on CentOS 7 in AWS. Reason for CentOS is for an instance pre-configured with SELinux. Officially Igel supports RHEL 7, but there are some changes I needed to make to get things to work with CentOS.
Prep CentOS Image
- Update
sudo yum upgrade -y
- Install python[1]. At the time of writing Igel supports Python 2.7 which CentOS 7 ships with. However, this is going EoL[2] and it would be good to run something newer. The only issue we will run into is that CentOS 7 requires python2.7 to work properly (i.e. yum)
sudo yum install python3
- Create dedicated user and add to wheel group (this can be done with single command, but I forgot).
sudo useradd igel sudo passwd igel sudo usermod -G wheel igel
- create bash alias to use python3 by adding the following to bashrc for the igel user
alias python='/usr/bin/python3'
- Update sshd.conf to allow the igel user to use password authentication.
Match User igel
PasswordAuthentication yes
Deploy Using UMS
Disabling IPv6
This was originally added because I had routing issues on my instance, but was able to resolve it so this is not necessary.
- If not using IPv6, disable it.[3] (I do not condone this, but my environment has third party support that is scared of IPv6)
- Append the following to /etc/sysctl.conf [4]
net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1 net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6 = 1
- Reload the config to apply
[centos@ip ~]$ sudo sysctl -p net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1 net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6 = 1
- Add the following to the yum config /etc/yum.conf [5]
ip_resolve=4
