Registering Your Linux Actor - Automated Method (Command Line)

  1. Connect to the Actor by using SSH.
  2. Using an elevated command prompt, navigate to the scripts directory and run vregister.
    sudo /opt/apps/verodin/node/node/scripts/vregister
    When an unexpected response is received, a message is displayed and a response.txt file is created.
    If you need to see Tap Adapters when selecting the interfaces, add the argument --include-tap-adapters when running vregister.
  3. Enter the Director's FQDN or IP address.
  4. Enter the appropriate code from the Director:

    • registration code in the Pending Actor's table
    • bulk registration token code in the Bulk Registration Tokens table
  5. If prompted, specify if you want to verify the Director TLS Certificate [yes|no].

    When set to Yes, it'll verify the certificate during registration and then every time the Actor reaches out to the Director (HTTPS requests).This prompt only appears for Pull Actors.

    Actors can verify TLS certs signed by public CAs, but not private CAs.
  6. If desired, add a proxy.
    1. Enter yes.
    2. Enter the Proxy IP and Proxy Port.
    3. If there is an account associated with the proxy, enter the account info.

      The command line states "Successfully validated with Verodin Director" and the Director's Actor listing moves the Actor from the Pending Actors list to the Actors list.
