Install the NGINX module

1. Install the Next-Gen WAF NGINX module by running the following command, replacing "NN.NN" with your NGINX version number:

   • NGINX version 1.18.0+ running either Amazon Linux 2 / Amazon Linux 2018.03

     $ sudo yum install nginx-module-sigsci-nxo-1.NN.NN*

   • NGINX version 1.14.1 < 1.17.9 on Amazon Linux 2 / Amazon Linux 2018.03

     $ sudo yum install nginx-module-sigsci-nxo-amzn-1.NN.NN*

2. In your NGINX config file (located by default at /etc/nginx/nginx.conf) add the following lines to the global section after the pid /run/nginx.pid; line:

   load_module /etc/nginx/modules/ngx_http_sigsci_module.so;

3. Restart the NGINX service to initialize the new module.

   • Amazon Linux 2

     $ systemctl restart nginx

   • Amazon Linux 2018.03

     $ restart nginx
