Amazon Linux NGINX-Plus

Requirements

Our distribution release depends on the EPEL repository, you will need to ensure your system also has it installed.

For Red Hat CentOS 6, we currently only support Amazon Linux 2018.03 or earlier.

Add the package repositories

Add the Signal Sciences yum repositories.

Red Hat CentOS 7

sudo tee /etc/yum.repos.d/sigsci.repo <<-'EOF'
[sigsci_release]
name=sigsci_release
baseurl=https://yum.signalsciences.net/release/el/7/$basearch
repo_gpgcheck=1
gpgcheck=1
enabled=1
gpgkey=https://yum.signalsciences.net/release/gpgkey https://dl.signalsciences.net/sigsci-agent/gpg.key
sslverify=1
sslcacert=/etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt
EOF

Red Hat CentOS 6

Note: After Q2 2017, RHEL6 and CentOS 6 will exit “Production Phase 2” according to the Red Hat Enterprise Linux Life Cycle. Only limited “critical” security fixes will be issued. You will need to review the lifecycle document for details and plan appropriately.

sudo tee /etc/yum.repos.d/sigsci.repo <<-'EOF'
[sigsci_release]
name=sigsci_release
baseurl=https://yum.signalsciences.net/release/el/6/$basearch
repo_gpgcheck=1
gpgcheck=1
