Installing NOC using Gufo Thor¶

Gufo Thor is a simple tool designed for quickly setting up and evaluating NOC. It's tailored for new NOC users who want to assess NOC's capabilities and NOC developers who need a fast development environment. Thor takes care of the complexity of NOC management, making the process straightforward.

Prerequisites¶

To use Thor, make sure you have the following software packages installed:

Docker
docker-compose or the compose plugin
Python 3.8+

Installation Methods¶

System-Level Installation¶

For dedicated NOC hosts, use this installation method. It installs Thor and all required libraries into the system default location.

curl https://sh.gufolabs.com/thor | sh

After installation, NOC will be launched, and your browser will open at https://go.getnoc.com:32777/

Log in using the following credentials:

Username: admin
Password: admin

Python VENV Installation¶

For evaluation, testing, and development purposes, use this installation method. It creates a dedicated Python virtual environment (venv) and isolates Thor along with all dependent libraries from other systems.

python -m venv .
. ./bin/activate
curl https://sh.gufolabs.com/thor | sh

After installation, NOC will be launched, and your browser will open at https://go.getnoc.com:32777/

Log in using the following credentials:

Username: admin
Password: admin

Later, when using Thor, make sure to activate the virtual environment (venv):

. ./bin/activate
