Configuration and administration

File .env

Watch a tutorial (english subs):

Subsystem configuration is done by editing the .env file 

/var/www/html/dpiui2/backed/.env

The file has the following content: 

#System settings. It should remain unchanged.
APP_ENV=local
APP_DEBUG=true
APP_KEY=
APP_TIMEZONE=UTC
 
#Application URL. It is needed to form the correct link when sending QoE reports to e-mail
APP_URL=https://localhost/
 
#System settings regarding connection to the MySql DB, it should remain unchanged
DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=localhost
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=dpiui2
DB_USERNAME=root
DB_PASSWORD=vasexperts

If changes to .env have been made, you should run the following command: dpiui2 queue:restart
If the command is not found restart the ssh session in the terminal.

Equipment connection

Sudo user

The equipment is connected and controlled using the SSH protocol. Connection must be done under a user with sudo privileges, or under the root user (not recommended).

Watch a tutorial on connecting to DPI (english subs):

A new user should be created with sudo access granted on the connected equipment.

Let's consider dpisu user creating as an example:

  1. Create the dpisu user 
    adduser dpisu
passwd dpisu
  2. Add to the /etc/sudoers.d/dpisu file the following stuff 
    Defaults:dpisu !requiretty
Defaults secure_path = /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/root/bin
dpisu    ALL=(ALL)       NOPASSWD: ALL

    By doing this, you disable the dpisu user requirement for a password and the requiretty requirement when switching to sudo mode.

  3. Disable the requiretty requirement in the file /etc/sudoers 
     sed -i "s/^.*requiretty/#Defaults requiretty/" /etc/sudoers
