If you are updating an existing installation, be sure to run the installer as the same user who initially
installed the software.
Always run the uninstaller before removing any files manually.
If you are installing as the root user using an install location in a network-mounted file system, ensure
that you have write permission to the file system.
To install the Tcl Client on Linux computer, perform the following steps: (note that the binary file name
‘IxOS<version>Linux.bin’ is used in the following example. In most cases, the file name is different)
1.
Download either the ZIP, BIN or TAR file from the Ixia Web site.
2.
Extract and copy all folders and files from the ZIP, BIN or TAR file into the lib folder of the IxOS
client installation.
3.
Copy the IxOS<version>Linux.bin file to the Linux system.
4.
Change the file's attribute to make it executable. Example: chmod +x IxOS<version>Linux.bin
5.
Execute the IxOS installer file (use the –i gui option if your Linux version supports a graphical
user interface). Example: ./IxOS<version>Linux.bin
6.
When the installer prompts you, select Tcl version 8.5 (required).
7.
Follow the rest of the instructions to complete the installation.
8.
Follow the installation prompts to complete the installation.
9.
After installation, set the following variables (note that the following examples match the sample
installation; they must be altered to match your installation.)
export IXIA_HOME=/opt/ixia/tcl/8.5.17.0
IXIA_VERSION=8.00.XXX.XXX
export TCLLIBPATH=$IXIA_HOME/lib
10.
Alternatively, specify the following environment variable to specify the location the log, sample,
and results files for IxOS:
IXIA_LOGS_DIR=/tmp/Ixia/Logs
IXIA_RESULTS_DIR=/tmp/Ixia/Results
IXIA_SAMPLES=/tmp/Ixia//samples
IXIA_TCL_DIR=$IxiaLibPath
11.
If the Tcl option was installed with an IxOS installation, add Ixia's bin and lib folder to the PATH
and LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable to use it. For example:
IxiaLibPath=$IXIA_HOME/lib
IxiaBinPath=$IXIA_HOME/bin
PATH=$IxiaBinPath:.:$TCLBinPath:$PATH
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$IxiaLibPath:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
