Chapter 7. Installing packages manually

The installation instructions above followed a typical installation cycle. It is a largely automatic process requiring as few user interaction as possible but at the same time allowing the control of installation details. In some cases, however, it may be necessary to manually install components of the system individually by using the standard apt tools.

In particular, apt install can be used to install the following components.

  • Zorp Management Server: The Zorp Management Server (ZMS) and its corresponding packages. ZMS — depending on its product license — can be installed on the Zorp firewall host or on a separate machine.(Package name: zorpproduct-zms)

  • Zorp Pro Firewall: The packages required for a firewall host. (Package name: zorpproduct-zorp)

  • Zorp URL filter: The package is required for the url filter. (package name: zorpproduct-urlfilter.

  • Zorp Authentication Server: The Zorp Authentication Server (ZAS) enables the authentication of network traffic on the user level at the firewall using password, CryptoCard, S/key, or X.509 methods. Integrating with existing Microsoft Active Directory, LDAP, PAM, and Radius databases is also supported. The module can be installed either together with the Zorp and ZMS modules or separately at a later date. (Package name: zorpproduct-zas)

  • Zorp Content Vectoring System: The Zorp Content Vectoring System (ZCV) is a framework and a uniform interface to manage various built-in and third party content vectoring modules (that is, virus and spam filtering engines). The content vectoring modules to be installed (in addition to the ZCV framework) can be selected from the following list. (Package name: zorpproduct-zcv)

    Warning

    The ZCV framework and the content vectoring modules must be installed on the same host.

    • ClamAV Antivirus Scanner: This module contains the libraries and virus signature databases needed for using the ClamAV antivirus engine. (Package name: zorpproduct-clamav)

    • NOD32 Antivirus Engine: This module contains the libraries and virus signature databases needed for using the Eset NOD32 antivirus engine. (Package name: zorpproduct-nod32)

    • SpamAssassin spam filter: This module contains the libraries and databases needed for using the SpamAssassin spam filtering engine. (Package name: zorpproduct-spamassassin)

    • ModSecurity: This module contains the libraries needed for using ModSecurity web application firewall (WAF) engine. (Package name: zorpproduct-modsecurity)

For example, to install Zorp on a host, use the sudo apt install zorpproduct-zorp command.
