Nebula is a scalable and secure networking tool developed by Slack. It provides a lightweight overlay network for connecting machines across different platforms, cloud providers, and geographic locations. This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing Nebula on Fedora CoreOS Latest.
Before you start this tutorial, you will need:
The first step is to install the dependencies required for Nebula. These include the git
and make
packages. To install them, run the following command:
$ sudo dnf install git make
Next, you need to clone the Nebula Git repository to your local system. To do this, run the following command:
$ git clone https://github.com/slackhq/nebula.git
This command will download the Nebula source code and create a new directory nebula
in your current working directory.
Once you have cloned the Nebula Git repository, you need to build the Nebula binary file. Change your working directory to the nebula
directory and run the following command:
$ make build
This command will compile the Nebula source code and create a binary file nebula
in the bin
directory.
The next step is to install the Nebula binary file on your system. To do this, you need to copy the nebula
binary file to a location in your system's PATH. For this tutorial, we will use the /usr/local/bin
directory. To do this, run the following command:
$ sudo cp bin/nebula /usr/local/bin/
This command will copy the nebula
binary file from the bin
directory to the /usr/local/bin
directory.
To verify that Nebula is installed correctly, run the following command:
$ nebula -h
This command will display the help menu for Nebula, indicating that it is installed correctly.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Nebula on Fedora CoreOS Latest. You can now use Nebula to create secure and scalable overlay networks across different platforms, cloud providers, and geographic locations.
