IMPORTANT

This guide only applies to Next-Gen WAF customers with access to the Next-Gen WAF control panel. If you have access to the Next-Gen WAF product in the Fastly control panel, you can only deploy the Next-Gen WAF with the Edge WAF deployment method.

Requirements

Install

  1. Download the latest Next-Gen WAF module for .Net via one of these methods:

  2. Extract the contents of sigsci-module-dotnet-x.x.x.zip to your application's bin directory.

  3. Add the following sections to your application's web.config file:

    1<configuration>
    2    ...
    3    <configSections>
    4        <section name="SignalSciencesModule" type="SignalSciences.ModuleConfiguration"/>
    5    </configSections>
    6

    7    ...
    8    <system.webServer>
    9        <modules>
    10            <add name="SignalSciencesModule" type="SignalSciences.HttpModule"/>
    11        </modules>
    12    </system.webServer>
    13    ...
    14

    15    <SignalSciencesModule agentEndPoint="127.0.0.1:737" />
    16    ...
    17</configuration>

  4. Restart the web site service.

NOTE

Ensure the AgentEndPoint value is set to the same IP and port configured with the Next-Gen WAF agent's rpc-address value. See the Windows agent installation documentation for additional information about Windows agent configuration options.
