Access Gateway Setup (On Bare Metal)

Prerequisites

To setup a Magma Access Gateway, you will need a machine that satisfies the following requirements:

AGW_HOST: 64bit-X86 machine, hardware strongly recommended (not virtualized). You will need two ethernet ports. We use enp1s0 and enp2s0 in this guide. They might have different names on your hardware so just replace enp1s0 and enp2s0 with your current interfaces name in this guideline. One port is for the SGi interface (default: enp1s0) and one for the S1 interface (default: enp2s0). Note that the agw_install.sh script will rename the enp1s0 interface to eth0.

Download .iso image from Debian mirror
Create bootable usb using etcher tutorial here
Boot your AGW host from USB (Press F11 to select boot sequence, :warning: This might be different for your machine). If you see 2 options to boot from USB, select the non-UEFI option.
Install and configure you access gateway according to your network defaults.
- Make sure to enable ssh server and utilities (untick every other)
Connect your SGi interface to the internet and select this port during the installation process to get an IP using DHCP.

Pre Install Check

Pre Install Check script provides information on the changes that will be made to the system by the AGW installation script.

cd ~/magma/lte/gateway/deploy
./agw_pre_check.sh

Run AGW installation

cd ~/magma/lte/gateway/deploy
./agw_install.sh

The machine will reboot but It's not finished yet, the script is still running in the background. You can follow the output there

journalctl -fu agw_installation

When you see "AGW installation is done." It means that your AGW installation is done, you can make sure magma is running by executing:

service magma@* status

Post Install Check

cd ~/magma/lte/gateway/deploy
./agw_post_install.sh
