NSP component installation overview

Component installation support

The chapter includes procedures for installing the following:

• NSP Flow Collector Controllers and NSP Flow Collectors—see NSP Flow Collector / Flow Collector Controller installation

• NSP analytics servers—see NSP analytics server installation

• WS-RC—see WS-RC installation

• VSR-NRC—see VSR-NRC installation

• NFM-P—see NFM-P installation

Note: Some components such as NSP Flow Collector Controllers and NSP Flow Collectors can be installed independently, and do not need to be installed as part of a larger NSP deployment. See the component installation procedure for information.

Before you attempt to perform a procedure in this chapter, you must ensure that your planned deployment meets the hardware and software requirements described in the NSP Planning Guide.

Note: It is strongly recommended that you verify the GPG signature of each RPM file that you download from Nokia to ensure that each file has a valid Nokia signature.

Note: It is strongly recommended that you verify the message digest of each NSP image file or software bundle that you download from the Nokia Support portal. The download page includes the MD5, SHA256, and SHA512 checksums for comparison with the output of the RHEL md5sum, sha256sum, or sha512sum command. See the associated RHEL man page for command usage information.
