Installation

The software dependencies will install automatically for you when running the install scripts via the GUI. I'd recommend doing an apt-get update and apt-get ugrade prior to running Briar so apt can grab all the latest packages

The Setup

1. First, ssh into your PI under your preferred user (ex: 'pi' or 'root'): ssh -X pi@your_pi_ip
   ( the -X means X-forwarding which will forward the GUI to your computer used to access your PI. )
   
2. Next, clone the repo! git clone https://github.com/musicmancorley/BriarIDS.git
3. You should now be able to run the program: sudo python BriarIDS.py or if running as root simply python BriarIDS.py. The main menu should now be visible.
   
   Understanding the Menu
   
   

This button will start the installation for Suricata. The installation status can be followed by typing the following in a separate terminal: tail -f /usr/local/src/install_log.log
