Finally, WiFiMon properties should be configured in the files (secure-processor.properties, ui.properties) of the WiFiMon config directory. Notably, WiFiMon uses HMAC SHA-512 encryption to encrypt sensitive data (End User IP addresses, End User MAC addresses) that are stored in the Elasticsearch cluster and visualized by Kibana. In secure-processor.properties, the key of this algorithm must be defined (property "sha.key"). This key is of type String and the reader could select any well-formatted string, preferably of big length. This string is defined only in the secure-processor.properties configuration file.
Apart from the "sha.key" property, the WiFiMon administrator is required to provide the port on which the WAS listens (property "server.port"), i.e. 9000 for the case of the WiFiMon Non-Secure Agent. Later, this documentation demonstrates how to install the WiFiMon Secure Agent; the WiFiMon Administrator is then required to change the value of the "server.port" property to 8443 from 9000.
Moreover, the WiFiMon Administrator should set the value of the PostgreSQL properties according to what was provided in the 2nd step of this documentation. Based on the example values of our documentation, "spring.datasource.url" can be defined as "jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/wifimon_database" and "spring.datasource.username", "spring.datasource.password" properties can be defined as "wifimon_user", "wifimonpass" respectively. Please, make sure that you change the aforementioned password to secure your PostgreSQL database setup.
Afterwards, the WiFiMon Administrator is required to provide the name of the Elasticsearch cluster ("elasticsearch.clustername" property) that was provided in step 4 of this documentation (e.g. "elasticsearch" in this guide) and the FQDN Elasticsearch listens on for the "elasticsearch.host" property.
In ui.properties, the WiFiMon Administrator is expected to provide the values for the PostgreSQL properties (the same as in the secure-processor.properties file) as well as the Kibana properties. Specifically, the WiFiMon Administrator should insert the FQDN Kibana listens on ("server.host.name" property), the protocol used by Kibana ("kibana.protocol" property), which is "http" for the WiFiMon Non-Secure Agent (this step) or "https" for the WiFiMon Secure Agent (step 7 of this documentation) as well as the port Kibana listens to ("kibana.port" property), which is usually 5601.
Starting the WiFiMon Secure Agent and WiFiMon GUI requires the following command:
