    WinIDS v2.5 Deployment Framework - Standalone Sensor Install Guide
    Copyright © 2026 WinSnort.com | Michael Steele
    ==================================================

    OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW
    This package contains a specialized deployment framework for the Windows
    Intrusion Detection System (WinIDS). It is engineered for high-performance
    installations on Windows 10/11 and Windows Server (2016-2025) 64-bit.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    1. PHASE I: PRE-DEPLOYMENT SPECIFICATIONS
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    * Target Environment : Optimized for clean OS installations. * Archive Integrity : Extract all package contents to a dedicated directory. * Archive Security : w1nsn03t.c0m -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    2. PHASE II: PARAMETER CONFIGURATION
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    From the Standalone Snsor define the operational environment within the 'config.conf'
    file using a standard text editor.
    Configure the following critical variables: $AllRules : Set "Yes" for comprehensive QA, or "No" for production. $TempDir : Defined directory for transient files (e.g., "D:\Temp"). $WinIDSRoot : Target installation directory (e.g., "D:\WinIDS"). $Oinkcode : Valid 40-character Snort Oinkcode (Required). Ensure all changes are saved prior to initialization.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    3. PHASE III: EXECUTION & INITIALIZATION
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    1. Access the local extraction directory.

    2. Right-click 'Installer.exe' and select "Run as Administrator."

    LATENCY EXPECTATION:
    Standard deployment completes in ~10 minutes on Workstation, and up to 60
    minutes on Server subject to resource availability and network throughput.

    RECOVERY LOGIC:
    If a package acquisition fails, manually download the specified asset to your
    $TempDir and re-initialize the installer. The framework will auto-resume.

    CAUTION: Do not terminate the process during active system modifications.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    4. PHASE IV: POST-DEPLOYMENT MANAGEMENT
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Upon successful completion, the WinIDS Management Suite will be accessible
    via Start Menu > WinSnort.
    Core utilities include: * WinIDS Console : Real-time telemetry, event monitoring, and analysis. * Rules Updater : PulledPork-driven rule-set synchronization. * Database Utility : Optimization and maintenance for database integrity. ==================================================

    WinIDS v2.5 Deployment Framework - Remote Node Install Guide
    Copyright © 2026 WinSnort.com | Michael Steele
    ==================================================

    OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW
    This toolkit provides the automated framework required for the deployment of a WinIDS Remote Node.
    This architecture facilitates decentralized packet inspection with centralized database logging.

    ARCHITECTURAL PREREQUISITES
    * Active Instance : A functional Standalone WinIDS Sensor is required. * Node Conversion : This process upgrades the Standalone Sensor instance to a Master Management Server role. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    1. PHASE I: PRE-DEPLOYMENT SPECIFICATIONS
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    * Archive Integrity : Extract all package contents to a dedicated directory. * Archive Security : w1nsn03t.c0m -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    2. PHASE II: MASTER SERVER PROVISIONING
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    The Master Management Server must be configured to authorize inbound database traffic before remote
    Node initialization.

    Before execution, define the operational environment within 'InitializeNode.ps1' script using a
    standard text editor.
    Configure the following critical variables: $RemoteIP = "" # IP of the Remote Node (e.g., 0.0.0.0/32) # Don't forget the CIDR (/xx) at the end of the IP. Ensure all changes are saved prior to executing.

    1. Execute via an Administrative PowerShell session:

    > powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File "InitializeNode.ps1"

    TECHNICAL IMPACT: This script automates Windows Firewall scoping and handles any remote database
    user permissions for the specified $RemoteIP.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    3. PHASE III: CONNECTIVITY & VALIDATION
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Verify communication between the Remote Node and the Master Management Server.

    1. From the Remote Node execute the Host2Node with the Host Servers HostIP & HostPORT:

    2. Execute via Administrative PowerShell:

    > powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -NoExit -File "Node2Host.ps1 HostIP HostPORT"

    MANDATORY: Connection verification is a hard requirement. Do not proceed to Phase IV if the
    handshake fails.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    4. PHASE IV: REMOTE SENSOR DEPLOYMENT
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Configure the Auto-Installer for the Remote Node.

    1. From the Remote Node define the operational environment within the 'config.conf' file
    using a standard text editor.
    Configure the following critical variables: $AllRules = "No" # Use "Yes" for diagnostic/high-latency only $TempDir = "" # Transient file directory (e.g., "D:\Temp") $WinIDSRoot = "" # System installation path (e.g., "D:\WinIDS") $Oinkcode = "" # Authorized 40-character Snort Oinkcode $RemoteHostIP = "" # Master Management Server IP $RemoteHostPort = "" # Master Management Server Database Port $SensorName = "" # Unique Identifier (e.g., "Sensor-Berlin") Ensure all changes are saved prior to executing.

    2. Right-click 'Installer.exe' and select "Run as Administrator."

    LATENCY EXPECTATION:
    Standard deployment completes in ~10 minutes, subject to resource availability and network throughput.

    RECOVERY LOGIC:
    If a package acquisition fails, manually download the specified asset to your $TempDir and re-initialize
    the installer. The framework will auto-resume.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    5. PHASE V: POST-DEPLOYMENT MANAGEMENT
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Upon successful completion, the WinIDS Management Suite will be accessible via Start Menu > WinSnort.
    Core utilities include: * Rules Updater : PulledPork-driven rule-set synchronization. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    6. PHASE VI: POST-DEPLOYMENT VERIFICATION
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Management Server Validation:
    1. Launch the WinIDS Console on the Master Management Server.
    2. Monitor the "Sensors/Total" telemetry indicator.
    3. A successful link displays "2/2" (or greater). Verify that "$SensorName" is actively reporting logs
    to the centralized dashboard.
