The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

Step 1 Install the license or licenses. Collector and the web applications require a MATE license. The WAE Core modules require both a MATE and a WAE license. For information, see the License Installation chapter.
Step 2 If you are installing, starting, or upgrading the MATE Live datastore (mld), stop the web server. For more information about the MATE Live datastore, see the MATE Live Configuration Guide.
b. Install, start, or upgrade MATE Live datastore.
– Install and start mld server: mld -action install -size [DSML]
– Start mld server: mld -action start
– Upgrade an existing mld server and start it: mld -action upgrade
Step 3 If you are collecting flow data using flow_manage
and flow_get
, you must change the file capabilities for the flow collection server. This applies to all binaries in $CARIDEN_HOME/lib/ext/pmacct/sbin
. If not, execute this command on all files in this directory.
Example: setcap 'cap_net_bind_service=+ep' $CARIDEN_HOME/lib/ext/pmacct/sbin/*
Step 4 Both the wae-web-server
and the wae-collector
are automatically started. Others may have been started, depending on how you responded to the installation process. If needed, start other services now. For information, see the Services chapter.
