Lab_Mod_04_Installing_Security_Onion

Описание: In this project, you will set up a virtual system that runs Security Onion, an open-source intrusion detection and network monitoring application. You will use Security Onion in several future hands-on labs, so it’s important to get the application set up and running.
To complete the process, you will need to download the software as an ISO file from the Security Onion link provided earlier in the Materials Required section. You should download the file prior to beginning the steps in the next section; the file is large and might take some time for most of you to download. After you download the security-onion-2.3.0.iso file, you will use it to build your virtual image using the procedure that follows.
If you go to the Internet to locate this image and find that the specific version number is no longer available, the current stable build should probably work for your needs. However, you may notice some differences between the build and the figures included in the following steps.
You will build the virtual image using a product called VMware Workstation Player, a virtualization application that is provided at no cost for personal and educational use. This tutorial assumes that your computer has already had VMware Workstation Player installed and configured; those instructions are not provided here. Installing and configuring VMware Workstation Player is a relatively simple task.
This tutorial also assumes that you are using the 16.X version of VMware Workstation Player. Other versions will likely work, including the current stable build, although you may notice differences between the interface and the instructions that follow.
The Security Onion ISO file contains the CentOS 7 operating system, so you do not have to download or install an operating system prior to beginning this project.
