Commander Quickstart Guide

Xiid Commanders are the central hub for managing Xiid Terniion™.

This Getting Started guide will walk you through deploying your first Xiid Commander, setting up the basic components for Xiid Terniion's SealedTunnel™, and deploying your first STLinks.

Outcomes

By the end of this Getting Started Section, you will have:

• Installed and activated your first Commander
• Set up your first Profile with an assigned Mapping Route for RDP or SSH access to your Commander machine.
• Set an additional Mapping Route to the Commander Portal.
• Deployed your first two STLinks.
• Set up Binding Routes to each of the two Mappings on the Commander's STLink.
• Achieved access to each of the Commander machine's resources over the SealedTunnel.
  • The Commander VM via RDP or SSH.
  • The Commander Portal via a browser.

Prerequisites

There are a small number of prerequisites for deploying the Xiid Commander.

We recommend using a Cloud Service Provider (e.g., AWS, GCP, Azure) for your Commander deployment, although the Commander can be easily deployed on-premise or practically anywhere.

Your machine that you install the Commander on must run one of the following operating systems and architectures:

Operating System	Supported Architectures
Windows 10 or above	x86_64
Windows Server 2016 or above	x86_64
Linux kernel 3.13 or above	x86_64

Please also ensure that you comply with the STLink Prerequisites before starting your deployment.

For a comprehensive overview of prerequisites, see the Deployment Requirements PDF.

What You Must Provide

You will need to provide the following:

• A Linux or Windows machine that the Commander and first STLink will be installed on
  • We recommend using a Cloud Service Provider
• A client machine (macOS, Linux, or Windows) to install the second STLink on
• Outbound access on port 443 for both machines
