Interface elements * If it is an icon, then it is most likely a click-able action. Hover over it to get a small description of what that action might be or maybe some other information. * Blue clickable links in a DNs name are the host portion of an FQDN. You can click on it to navigate to the display host page. * Green clickable links in a DNS name are the Domain portion of an FQDN. You can click on it to navigate to the display domain page. * Orange clickable links are action links…

OK, so you've installed ONA and you have selected your default domain of “example.com” during install.. what next?? Lets assume a small company (or home network) that has an internet connection, a router, a few LANs and some hosts. The following steps will walk you through a hypothetical environment to show you some of the common day to day activities.

display_config_text

2009-02-22T19:23:19-06:00

Configuration archives are simply portions of text that are stored in the database with a time stamp, type, and a checksum. Each host can have 1 or more archives for a specific type. There is currently not a way to add configuration archives via the GUI. This is purely done via external processes like cisco_archive or via dcm.pl

edit_record

2009-09-02T22:52:04-06:00

This is the form that allows you to add DNS records of various types as well as edit existing records. There are two fields that are common to all DNS record types in ONA. They are TTL and Begin. TTL The TTL setting tells the DNS server how long to cache this entry. When you create a domain, there will be a default domain wide TTL setting. Each record you add will use the domain level setting unless you click the “override” link and specify a new TTL value in seconds. It is pretty rare th…

Once you have installed the application, simply point your browser to or appropriate link. You will be presented with the ONA “desktop” which should look something like this: Desktop bar At the top of the desktop you will see the main bar. This is similar to task bars of many OSes. I'll describe each element from right to left:

installation

2009-08-13T23:05:44-06:00

Requirements ONA has a simple set of requirements to run. I will describe them each briefly here. * You will need a web server to service the page. Apache was the web server used to do the development and testing. * You will need a database to store the data. MySQL was the database used to develop and test with. We use the ADODB PHP database abstraction layer so using Postgres or Oracle should not be an issue although we have not tested with those backends. * You will need a PHP in…

ona_nmap_scans

2010-05-27T17:36:39-06:00

This plugin provides the ability to generate nmap based scans and integrate the results into the ONA interface. You can then run audits of your network and compare it against data in ONA via a report. Then from there you can easily update ONA to reflect the output of the report as needed.

plugins

2010-05-27T17:46:00-06:00

The release v10.05.24 is the first release of ONA the provides the plugin framework. This framework is an initial start so it will likely go through quite a bit of change as it develops along. By default the NMAP plugin will come with ONA. Install To install a plugin, simply untar/unzip it into the /opt/ona/www/local/plugins directory. Once you have placed the plugin into this directory, it should be visible in the “manage plugins” menu option.

search_results

2009-02-22T19:23:19-06:00

The search results page simply gives a list of records from the database that match a specific search that you have performed. * When you click through the various tabs at the top it will remember the last query you had for that tab. If there have been no queries for that particular tab, it will select all records from the database. The lists will only show 10 records at a time which is the system default for all lists. If you wish, you can temporarily set a larger amount of rows for all…

Please excuse the lack of documentation. As usual it gets the least amount of attention. Here are a few topics to start with, more will follow. * Installation * Downloads * Plugins * Getting Started * Common Tasks * Basic Concepts * Other tools and addons * User contributed documentation

utils

2009-02-22T16:54:49-06:00

The following is a list of utilities that will be a large part of the OpenNetAdmin framework but many will work equally as well by themselves. Some of these utilities require others to function properly and will be noted under their requirements section. They will each be released here in a stand alone form to be used as needed.
