Installation

This section walks you through the full installation process for HuLoop IPD, including:

  • Setting up the IPD Server (on a Linux machine)
  • Installing the Agent (Client) on Windows devices
Note: Make sure you’ve completed all the items in the Pre-Installation Checklist before beginning this section.

IPD Server Installation (Linux)

HuLoop provides a guided installation script (install.sh) that automates the deployment of the IPD backend using Docker containers.

Steps to Install the Server

  1. Download the Installation Bundle
    Copy the provided installation package to your Linux VM (ZIP or TAR format).

scp IPD_Install_Bundle.zip user@your-ipd-server:/home/user/

  1. Unpack the Bundle

unzip IPD_Install_Bundle.zip

cd IPD_Install_Bundle

  1. Make the Install Script Executable

chmod +x install.sh

  1. Run the Installation Script
    Execute the install script and follow the on-screen prompts.

./install.sh

During the script execution, you’ll be asked to enter:

    • Server hostname (e.g., ipd.company.com)
    • Instance name (e.g., chainbridge-ipd)
    • SSL certificate path and password
    • Docker proxy settings (if required)
    • Whether to enable monitoring, backups, or anonymizer modules

Press Enter to accept default options unless you are using a custom configuration.

Agent Installation (Windows)

There are two ways to install the agent:

  • Manual installation for a small number of devices

Automated deployment using SCCM or Intune (see HuLoop IPD – Server and Agent Deployment Guide for IT Administrators.)

Manual Agent Installation Steps

  1. Double-Click the Installer
    Run the HuLoop Agent .msi file on the target desktop.
  2. Enter the IPD Server URL
    Example: https://ipd.customer.com
  3. Complete the Setup Wizard
    Click through the prompts and finish the installation.
  4. Agent Starts Automatically
    After a few minutes, the agent service will begin collecting data.

You can verify installation by checking for the green HuLoop icon in the system tray.

Deployment Notes

  • Use SCCM or Intune for larger rollouts (refer to the Guide: HuLoop IPD – Server and Agent Deployment Guide for IT Administrators)
  • Ensure the Windows device has local admin rights to install the agent.
  • If deploying via command line, use this silent install command:

msiexec /i “KypMsi_Discovery.msi” /quiet     SERVERURL=”https://ipd.customer.com/engine”

⚠️ Important: Reboots are not usually required, but some group policies may delay agent startup until after the next login.
