****** GUI Installation ******
These steps assume that you have already installed and configured the other CA
tools.
rpki-manage is a shell script wrapper around the django-admin command which
sets $PYTHONPATH and $DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE.
***** Prerequisites *****
* Django 1.3 or later
* Django South 0.7.6 or later
* Apache 2
* mod_wsgi 3
***** Upgrading from a Previous Release *****
If you had previously installed the web portal before the database migration
support was added, you will need to take some additional steps.
**** Sync databases ****
$ rpki-manage syncdb
**** Database Migration ****
If you have not previously run the new database migration step, you will need
to run this command. Note that you only need to run this command the first time
you upgrade.
$ rpki-manage migrate app 0001 --fake
Now bring your database up to date with the current release:
$ rpki-manage migrate app
From this point on you will just need to run the latter command every time you
upgrade.
***** New Installation *****
**** Create the initial tables ****
$ rpki-manage syncdb
Answer "yes" when asked if you want to create superuser Enter username for
superuser Enter password
If you need to create superuser at a later time, you can run
$ rpki-manage createsuperuser
If you need to change superuser's password
$ rpki-manage changepassword <username>
**** Perform Database Migration ****
If there were any changes to the database schema, this command will bring your
existing database up to date with the current software.
$ rpki-manage migrate app
***** Configure Apache *****
Now configure apache, using /usr/local/etc/rpki/apache.conf, e.g.
$ cp apache.conf /usr/local/etc/apache22/Includes/rpki.conf
You can put it in a virtual host if you wish.
Restart apache
$ apachectl restart
Go to the URL for your web server and enter the superuser and password in login
form.
If you've only done the above bootstrap, there will only be a single handle to
manage, so the GUI will automatically bring you to the dashboard for that
handle.
**** Running the web portal as a different user ****
By default, the web portal is run in embedded mode in mod_wsgi, which means it
runs inside the apache process. However, you can make the web portal run in
daemon mode as a different user using mod_wsgi.
$ ./configure --enable-daemon-mode[=user[:group]]
Where user is the optional user to run the web portal as, and group is the
optional group to run the web portal as. If user is not specified, it will run
in a separate process but the same user as apache is configured to run.
Note that when run in daemon mode, a unix domain socket will be created in the
same directory as the apache log files. If the user you have specified to run
the web portal as does not have permission to read a file in that directory,
the web interface will return a 500 Internal Server Error and you will see a
permission denied error in your apache logs. The solution to this is to use the
WSGISocketPrefix apache configuration directive to specify an alternative
location, such as:
WSGISocketPrefix /var/run/wsgi
Note that this directive must not be placed inside of the VirtualHost section.
It must be located at the global scope.
see http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/wiki/
ConfigurationDirectives#WSGISocketPrefix for more information.
****** Installation of Route Views Support for the GUI ******
If you want ROA creation to tell the user what routes are in the global routing
table for what they are about to create,
Be sure you have curl installed. On FreeBSD it is in /usr/ports/ftp/curl
Install a script such as the following as /usr/locl/bin/do-routeviews
#!/bin/sh
# Fetch the full bgp dump from routeviews.org and update the web
# portal's database
i=oix-full-snapshot-latest.dat.bz2
o=/tmp/$i
curl -s -S -o $o http://archive.routeviews.org/oix-route-views/$i
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
/usr/local/sbin/rpkigui-import-routes -l error $o
fi
and create an entry in root's crontab such as
30 */2 * * * root /usr/local/sbin/do-routeviews
If you want the GUI's "routes" page to see ROAs when you click those buttons,
you will need to run rcynic. see the instructions for setting up rcynic.
If you are running rootd, you may want to run with only your local trust
anchor. In this case, to have the GUI be fairly responsive to changes, you may
want to run the rcynic often. In this case, you may want to look at the value
of jitter in rcynic.conf.
In addition, your rcynic script should also have
/usr/local/sbin/rpkigui-rcynic -l error
after the rcynic run.
****** Expiration Checking ******
The web portal can notify users when it detects that RPKI certificates will
expire in the near future. Run the following script as a cron job, perhaps once
a night:
/usr/local/sbin/rpkigui-check-expired
By default it will warn of expiration 14 days in advance, but this may be
changed by using the -t command line option and specifying how many days in
advance to check.
****** Using the GUI ******
****** GUI Examples ******
***** Logging in to the GUI *****

***** The Dashboard - Let's Make a ROA *****

***** ROA List Currently Empty, So Let's Create One *****

***** Choose an AS and Prefix - Let MaxLen? Default *****
