| 1 | +# 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. |
