ステップ1:NGINXおよび依存関係のインストール

Install the latest NGINX version of:

  • NGINX stable (the latest supported version is v1.28.0) - see how to install it in the NGINX documentation.

  • NGINX Mainline (the latest supported version is v1.27.5) - see how to install it in the NGINX documentation.

  • NGINX Plus (the latest supported version is NGINX Plus R33) - see how to install it in the NGINX documentation.

  • Distribution-Provided NGINX - to install, use the following commands:

    sudo apt update 
    sudo apt -y install --no-install-recommends nginx
    
    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get install nginx
    
    sudo yum -y update 
    sudo yum install -y nginx
    
    sudo yum -y update 
    sudo yum install -y nginx
    
    sudo yum -y update 
    sudo yum install -y nginx
    

ステップ2:Wallarmトークンの準備

To install node, you will need a Wallarm token of the appropriate type. To prepare a token:

  1. Open Wallarm Console → SettingsAPI tokens in the US Cloud or EU Cloud.
  2. Find or create API token with the Node deployment/Deployment usage type.
  3. Copy this token.
  1. Open Wallarm Console → Nodes in the US Cloud or EU Cloud.
  2. Do one of the following:
    • Create the node of the Wallarm node type and copy the generated token.
    • Use existing node group - copy token using node's menu → Copy token.

ステップ3:オールインワンWallarmインストーラーのダウンロード

Wallarm suggests all-in-one installations for the following processors:

  • x86_64

  • ARM64 (beta)

To download all-in-one Wallarm installation script, execute the command:

curl -O https://meganode.wallarm.com/6.1/wallarm-6.1.0.x86_64-glibc.sh
curl -O https://meganode.wallarm.com/6.1/wallarm-6.1.0.aarch64-glibc.sh

ステップ4:オールインワンWallarmインストーラーの実行

  1. Run downloaded script:

    # If using the x86_64 version:
    sudo env WALLARM_LABELS='group=<GROUP>' sh wallarm-6.1.0.x86_64-glibc.sh
    
    # If using the ARM64 version:
    sudo env WALLARM_LABELS='group=<GROUP>' sh wallarm-6.1.0.aarch64-glibc.sh
    

    The WALLARM_LABELS variable sets group into which the node will be added (used for logical grouping of nodes in the Wallarm Console UI).

    # If using the x86_64 version:
    sudo sh wallarm-6.1.0.x86_64-glibc.sh
    
    # If using the ARM64 version:
    sudo sh wallarm-6.1.0.aarch64-glibc.sh
    
  2. Select US Cloud or EU Cloud.

  3. Enter Wallarm token.

以降の手順におけるコマンドは、x86_64およびARM64インストールに対して同一です。

ステップ5:Wallarmノードによるトラフィック解析の有効化

By default, the deployed Wallarm Node does not analyze incoming traffic.

To enable traffic analysis, perform the following configuration:

If you deploy the Wallarm Node for in-line traffic analysis and proxying of legitimate traffic, update the NGINX configuration file, typically located at /etc/nginx/sites-available/default.

The following minimal configuration adjustments are necessary:

  1. Set the Wallarm Node to wallarm_mode monitoring;. This mode is recommended for initial deployments and testing.

    Wallarm also supports more modes like blocking and safe blocking, which you can read more.

  2. Determine where the node should forward legitimate traffic by adding the proxy_pass directive in the required locations. This could be to the IP of an application server, a load balancer, or a DNS name.

  3. If present, remove the try_files directive from the modified locations to ensure traffic is directed to Wallarm without local file interference.
server {
    ...
+   wallarm_mode monitoring;
    location / { 
+        proxy_pass http://example.com;
-        # try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
    }
    ...
}

If you deploy the Wallarm Node for out-of-band traffic analysis, update the NGINX configuration file, typically located at /etc/nginx/sites-available/default.

The following minimal configuration adjustments are necessary:

  1. For the Wallarm node to accept mirrored traffic, set the following configuration in the server NGINX block:

    server {
        listen 80;
        ...
    
        wallarm_force server_addr $http_x_server_addr;
        wallarm_force server_port $http_x_server_port;
        # Change 222.222.222.22 to the address of the mirroring server
        #set_real_ip_from  222.222.222.22;
        #real_ip_header    X-Forwarded-For;
        #real_ip_recursive on;
        wallarm_force response_status 0;
        wallarm_force response_time 0;
        wallarm_force response_size 0;
    }
    
    • The set_real_ip_from and real_ip_header directives are required to have Wallarm Console display the IP addresses of the attackers.
    • The wallarm_force_response_* directives are required to disable analysis of all requests except for copies received from the mirrored traffic.
  2. For the Wallarm node to analyze the mirrored traffic, set the wallarm_mode directive to monitoring:

    server {
        listen 80;
        listen [::]:80 ipv6only=on;
        wallarm_mode monitoring;
    
        ...
    }
    

    Since malicious requests cannot be blocked, the only mode Wallarm accepts is monitoring. For in-line deployment, there are also safe blocking and blocking modes but even if you set the wallarm_mode directive to a value different from monitoring, the node continues to monitor traffic and only record malicious traffic (aside from the mode set to off).

  3. If present, remove the try_files directive from the NGINX locations to ensure traffic is directed to Wallarm without local file interference:

    server {
        ...
        location / {
    -        # try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
        }
        ...
    }
    

Depending on your specific traffic routing rules and requirements, further customize both NGINX and Wallarm configurations as needed.

ステップ6:NGINXの再起動

Restart NGINX using the following command:

sudo systemctl restart nginx

ステップ7:Wallarmノードへのトラフィック送信の設定

Depending on the deployment approach being used, perform the following settings:

Update targets of your load balancer to send traffic to the Wallarm instance. For details, please refer to the documentation on your load balancer.

Configure your web or proxy server (e.g. NGINX, Envoy) to mirror incoming traffic to the Wallarm node. For configuration details, we recommend to refer to your web or proxy server documentation.

Inside the link, you will find the example configuration for the most popular of web and proxy servers (NGINX, Traefik, Envoy).

ステップ8:Wallarmノードの動作テスト

  1. Send the request with test Path Traversal attack to a protected resource address:

    curl http://localhost/etc/passwd
    

    If traffic is configured to be proxied to example.com, include the -H "Host: example.com" header in the request.

  2. Open Wallarm Console → Attacks section in the US Cloud or EU Cloud and make sure the attack is displayed in the list.

    Attacks in the interface

  3. Optionally, test other aspects of the node functioning.

ステップ9:展開済みソリューションの微調整

デフォルト設定の動的Wallarmモジュールがインストールされています。デプロイ後、フィルタリングノードには追加の設定が必要な場合があります。

Wallarmの設定はNGINXディレクティブまたはWallarm Console UIを使用して定義されます。ディレクティブは、Wallarmノードが実行されているマシンの以下のファイルに設定してください:

  • サーバーおよびロケーションレベルの設定用:/etc/nginx/sites-available/default

  • httpレベルの設定用:/etc/nginx/nginx.conf

  • Wallarmノードの監視設定を含む:/etc/nginx/wallarm-status.conf 詳細な説明はリンクをご参照ください。

  • Tarantoolから統計情報を収集するcollectdプラグインの設定を含む:/opt/wallarm/etc/collectd/wallarm-collectd.conf.d/wallarm-tarantool.conf

以下に、必要に応じて適用できる一般的な設定例を示します:

起動オプション

As soon as you have the all-in one script downloaded, you can get help on it with:

sudo sh ./wallarm-6.1.0.x86_64-glibc.sh -- -h

Which returns:

...
Usage: setup.sh [options]... [arguments]... [filtering/postanalytics]

OPTION                      DESCRIPTION
-b, --batch                 Batch mode, non-interactive installation.
    --install-only          Initiates the first stage of the all-in-one installer in batch mode. Copies essential configurations, including files and binaries, and sets up NGINX for node installation, bypassing Cloud registration and activation. Requires --batch.
    --skip-ngx-config       Avoids automatic NGINX configuration changes that occur during the --install-only stage in batch mode, suitable for users who prefer manual adjustments later. When used with --install-only, it ensures only essential configurations are copied without altering NGINX settings. Requires --batch.
    --register-only         Initiates the second stage of the all-in-one installer in batch mode, completing the setup by registering the node in the Cloud and starting its service. Requires --batch.
-t, --token TOKEN           Node token, required in a batch mode.
-c, --cloud CLOUD           Wallarm Cloud, one of US/EU, default is EU, only used in a batch mode.
-H, --host HOST             Wallarm API address, for example, api.wallarm.com or us1.api.wallarm.com, only used in a batch mode.
-P, --port PORT             Wallarm API pot, for example, 443.
    --no-ssl                Disable SSL for Wallarm API access.
    --no-verify             Disable SSL certificates verification.
-f, --force                 If there is a node with the same name, create a new instance.
-h, --help
    --version

Batch mode

The --batch option triggers batch (non-interactive) mode, where the script requires configuration options via the --token and --cloud flags, along with the WALLARM_LABELS environment variable if needed. In this mode, the script does not prompt the user for data input step by step as in the default mode; instead, it requires explicit commands for interaction.

Below are examples of commands to run the script in batch mode for node installation, assuming the script has already been downloaded:

# If using the x86_64 version:
sudo env WALLARM_LABELS='group=<GROUP>' sh wallarm-6.1.0.x86_64-glibc.sh -- --batch -t <TOKEN> -c US

# If using the ARM64 version:
sudo env WALLARM_LABELS='group=<GROUP>' sh wallarm-6.1.0.aarch64-glibc.sh -- --batch -t <TOKEN> -c US
# If using the x86_64 version:
sudo env WALLARM_LABELS='group=<GROUP>' sh wallarm-6.1.0.x86_64-glibc.sh -- --batch -t <TOKEN>

# If using the ARM64 version:
sudo env WALLARM_LABELS='group=<GROUP>' sh wallarm-6.1.0.aarch64-glibc.sh -- --batch -t <TOKEN>

Separate execution of node installation stages

When preparing your own machine image using the all-in-one installer for cloud infrastructure, the standard installation process outlined in this article may not suffice. Instead, you will need to execute specific stages of the all-in-one installer separately to accommodate the requirements of creating and deploying a machine image:

  1. Build machine image: At this stage, it is necessary to download binaries, libraries, and configuration files of the filtering node and create a machine image based on them. Utilizing the --install-only flag, the script copies the required files and modifies NGINX configurations for node operation. If you wish to make manual adjustments, you can opt to bypass the NGINX file modification by using the --skip-ngx-config flag.

  2. Initialize a cloud instance with cloud-init: During instance initialization, the bootstrap phase (cloud registration and service start) can be executed using cloud-init scripts. This stage can be run independently from the build phase by applying the --register-only flag to the /opt/wallarm/setup.sh script copied during the build stage.

This functionality is supported starting from version 4.10.0 of the all-in-one installer in batch mode. The commands below enable the sequential execution of the outlined steps:

# If using the x86_64 version:
curl -O https://meganode.wallarm.com/6.1/wallarm-6.1.0.x86_64-glibc.sh
sudo sh wallarm-6.1.0.x86_64-glibc.sh -- --batch --install-only
sudo env WALLARM_LABELS='group=<GROUP>' /opt/wallarm/setup.sh --batch --register-only -t <TOKEN> -c US

# If using the ARM64 version:
curl -O https://meganode.wallarm.com/6.1/wallarm-6.1.0.aarch64-glibc.sh
sudo sh wallarm-6.1.0.aarch64-glibc.sh -- --batch --install-only
sudo env WALLARM_LABELS='group=<GROUP>' /opt/wallarm/setup.sh --batch --register-only -t <TOKEN> -c US
# If using the x86_64 version:
curl -O https://meganode.wallarm.com/6.1/wallarm-6.1.0.x86_64-glibc.sh
sudo sh wallarm-6.1.0.x86_64-glibc.sh -- --batch --install-only
sudo env WALLARM_LABELS='group=<GROUP>' /opt/wallarm/setup.sh --batch --register-only -t <TOKEN>

# If using the ARM64 version:
curl -O https://meganode.wallarm.com/6.1/wallarm-6.1.0.aarch64-glibc.sh
sudo sh wallarm-6.1.0.aarch64-glibc.sh -- --batch --install-only
sudo env WALLARM_LABELS='group=<GROUP>' /opt/wallarm/setup.sh --batch --register-only -t <TOKEN>

Finally, to complete the installation, you need to enable Wallarm to analyze traffic and restart NGINX.

Separate installation of filtering and postanalytics nodes

The filtering/postanalytics switch provides the option to install the postanalytics module separately. Without this switch, both filtering and postanalytics components are installed together by default.

API Discovery-only mode

You can use the node in API Discovery-only mode (available since version 5.3.7). In this mode, attacks - including those detected by the Node's built-in mechanisms and those requiring additional configuration (e.g., credential stuffing, API specification violation attempts, and malicious activity from denylisted and graylisted IPs) - are detected and blocked locally (if enabled) but not exported to Wallarm Cloud. Since there is no attack data in the Cloud, [Threat Replay Testing][threat-replay-testing-docs] does not work. Traffic from whitelisted IPs is allowed.

Meanwhile, [API Discovery][api-discovery-docs], [API session tracking][api-sessions-docs], and [security vulnerability detection][vuln-detection-docs] remain fully functional, detecting relevant security entities and uploading them to the Cloud for visualization.

This mode is for those who want to review their API inventory and identify sensitive data first, and plan controlled attack data export accordingly. However, disabling attack export is rare, as Wallarm securely processes attack data and provides [sensitive attack data masking][masking-sensitive-data-rule] if needed.

To enable API Discovery-only mode:

  1. Create or modify the /etc/wallarm-override/env.list file:

    sudo mkdir /etc/wallarm-override
    sudo vim /etc/wallarm-override/env.list
    

    Add the following variable:

    WALLARM_APID_ONLY=true
    
  2. Follow the node installation procedure.

With the API Discovery-only mode enabled, the /opt/wallarm/var/log/wallarm/wcli-out.log log returns the following message:

{"level":"info","component":"reqexp","time":"2025-01-31T11:59:38Z","message":"requests export skipped (disabled)"}

インストールの再実行

Wallarmノードのインストールを削除して再び開始する必要がある場合は、以下の手順に従ってください。

インストールの再実行による影響

インストールの再実行は、実行中のWallarmサービスの停止および削除を伴い、その結果、再インストールまでトラフィックフィルタリングが停止されます。これにより、トラフィックがフィルタリングされずリスクにさらされるため、本番環境や重要なトラフィック環境では十分に注意してください。

既存のノードをアップグレードする場合(例:4.10から5.0へのアップグレード)、アップグレード手順をご参照ください。

  1. Wallarmプロセスを終了し、設定ファイルを削除します:

    sudo systemctl stop wallarm
    sudo rm -rf /opt/wallarm
    
  2. ステップ2:Wallarmトークンの準備からセットアップ手順に従って、再インストールプロセスを続行します。
