# Application Study Tool Configuration Wizard
2+
3+
This script is a user-friendly way to easily and quickly configure the Application Study Tool for its initial deployment.
4+
Upon running it, it will ask you a series of questions, including BIG-IP management IP addresses, usernames, passwords,
5+
and other required settings, and use this information to create and update the required config files in AST.
6+
Once it completes, AST is ready to be run. It also gives you the option of running AST right from the script.
7+
8+
Note: This script is meant to be run only at initial installation time.
9+
If you need to make changes afterwards or you make an error while inputting the required values,
10+
you will need to re-run the script and re-enter all of your settings.
11+
Alternatively, to just make one-off edits, you can manually edit the config files after the script exits.
12+
13+
## Prerequisites
14+
Pre-installing Docker or Podman prior to running this script is recommended
15+
in order to allow this script to launch the Application Study Tool. However, it is not strictly required.
16+
17+
The following steps, however, are required before running this script:
18+
```
19+
$ git clone https://github.com/f5devcentral/application-study-tool.git
20+
$ cd application-study-tool
21+
$ chmod +x config-wizard.sh
22+
$ ./config-wizard.sh
23+
```
24+
25+
This script will prompt you for the information it needs to configure the Application Study Tool.
26+
This includes BIG-IP management IP addresses, credentials, and other information. It will continue adding BIG-IP devices
27+
until you tell it to stop (by just hitting ENTER instead of entering a management IP address).
28+
It updates the required configuration files as it goes, so if you abort the script in the middle of using it,
29+
your the configuration information you have entered thus far will be saved in the AST configuration files. You will then
30+
want to revisit this process by manually editing the configuration files and adding any remaining settings.
