INSTANT SET UP

Fast, Simple & Effortless

Install

Please note that NMIS must be installed on the your machine before opConfig or most other Opmantek Modules. Please ensure you have installed NMIS before installing opConfig. NMIS is the underlying software required to run any of Opmantek’s individual modules, and can be installed on Linux. If you do not have a machine currently running Linux, you can download and install the Opmantek Virtual Machine, which includes NMIS and all Opmantek software modules. The following installation guide should be sufficient for most users’ needs. Advanced instructions and troubleshooting are available on the opConfig Wiki.

Download the opConfig installer

If you haven’t already, hit the download button above and download the opConfig Installer. The Installer comes as a .run file.

Run the Installer in Linux Terminal

Open the Linux Terminal. Start a Terminal instance as the root user through the following command, entering your password when prompted: sudo -i If you have not been granted access to the root user, contact your system administrator. Once your terminal session is run by the root user, run the shell command to begin the installation process sh /…/opConfig-<version number>.run Press Y or Return/Enter when the installer prompts you. Several times throughout the installation process you will be prompted to approve the various components of the opConfig Module as they are installed on your machine. Please take note of any relevant information as you approve each step. When the installation is complete, the following will print on the Terminal:

You’re now ready to select a licence for the opConfig Module.

Licensing Applications

The opConfig module offers several licencing options:

A full-featured 30-day trial
Competitive pricing for larger networks of all different sizes
A free licence for 20-node networks

If you already have a licence key, simply enter it to activate the module. Otherwise, please follow the instructions below to acquire a trial licence.

Open the Opmantek Applications Homepage

This can be found by accessing the host machine on which you set up opConfig. If you’re accessing the software on the same machine the address will be localhost/omk. If you are using a different machine, use <IP_OR_hostname>/omk to connect. You can find your host machine’s IP address in Network Settings.

Select opConfig Module

From the list of applications on this page, select opConfig. This will open up licencing options.

Request a Trial Licence

To get a free, fully-featured trial licence, click the first option on the licencing page: Get a Free Trial License from Opmantek.com.

Log in to your Opmantek account

If you haven’t got an Opmantek account, you can also register on this page for free.

Request trial licences

Once you log in, you will be given the option to request trial licences for a number of Opmantek products. Select the modules you wish to trial in order to receive your licence keys. These keys will be long strings that you will need to copy into the Modules in order to activate them for your use.

Enter your licence key into the Module

Return to the opConfig Module and enter the licence key. You can try typing it manually, but we recommend cut-and-paste.
