This article describes how you can go from a bare install of Ubuntu 16.04 to a fully running Trisul NSM system quickly.

The docker installation is very straightforward on Ubuntu 16.04 as it is an officially supported distribution. The official instructions "Get Docker CE for Ubuntu" work great. Just follow those instructions.

$ sudo apt-get install docker-ce

After installing Docker CE you need to start the service.

systemctl start docker

The following command pulls the latest TrisulNSM image from Docker Hub but does not start anything.

sudo docker pull trisulnsm/trisul6 

The following command starts the TrisulNSM Docker image with the following properties

1. Captures from interface eth0
2. Stores persistent data in /opt/trisul6_root
3. Names the container trisul1a for ease of use

sudo docker run --name=trisul1a  \ 
   --net=host -v /opt/trisul6_root:/trisulroot \
      --d trisulnsm/trisul6 \
          --interface  eth0
