Setup harness server
Setup Security shell
root@testing-harness:~# aptitude install openssh-server
Setup NFS
AFT applies Network file system to share /home/tester directory where images and other files used in flashing for PC-devices within AFT net can be found.
NFS is installed ?
To check if the NFS server is installed, we can do...
root@testing-harness:~# dpkg -l | grep nfs-kernel-server
How to install NFS ?
To install NFS these are the required packages...
root@testing-harness:~# aptitude install nfs-kernel-server
The following NEW packages will be installed:
keyutils{a} libnfsidmap2{a} libtirpc1{a} nfs-common{a} nfs-kernel-server
rpcbind{a}
0 packages upgraded, 6 newly installed, 0 to remove and 459 not upgraded.
Need to get 470 kB of archives. After unpacking 1 884 kB will be used.

Sharing /home/tester directory
root@testing-harness:~# mkdir -p /home/tester root@testing-harness:~# echo '/home/tester 192.168.1.0/24 (crossmnt,ro,root_squash,sync,no_subtree_check)' >> /etc/exports
Setup DNS cache and DHCP server for AFT net
DNSmasq provides two services, either of which can be used independently.
- DNS service
- DHCP service
A local DNS cache can speed up internet browsing because the user's applications will not need to access a domain name server when it looks up a domain name the computer has visited before.
How to install dnsmasq ?
To install dnsmasq these are the required packages...
root@testing-harness:~# aptitude install dnsmasq

At the sametime we have set up a simple DNS server. To test it, use your favorite DNS lookup tool pointed at localhost
root@testing-harness:~# nslookup yoctoproject.org localhost Server: localhost Address: 127.0.0.1#53 Non-authoritative answer: Name: yoctoproject.org Address: 140.211.169.56
Configure DHCP server
To enable the DHCP server of AFT net, you will need to give it a range of IP addresses to hand out. The AFT net server would hand out 92 address starting at 192.168.1.2 and ending at 192.168.1.99.
root@testing-harness:~# echo 'dhcp-range=192.168.1.2,192.168.1.99,10m' >> /etc/dnsmasq.conf
To tell dnsmasq which ethernet interface it can and cannot listen on.
root@testing-harness:~# echo 'interface=eno1' >> /etc/dnsmasq.conf
During the creation of this document the interface eno1 is the unique one connected to AFT net.
AFT and its relation with dnsmasq.leases
As of dhcp server is up and running. AFT shall utilize dhcp-server's active ip leasing information to determine device IP address of PC-devices over AFT net. By default it is found upon /var/lib/misc/dnsmasq.leases
root@testing-harness:~# cat /var/lib/misc/dnsmasq.leases 1417132679 78:c5:e5:b4:4d:07 192.168.1.99 minox-fbe390b0bb404da * 1417134678 20:54:76:e4:d8:a5 192.168.1.57 minoy-ab6e5d0a524c9c7d * ...... ....... ........ and so on...
Above a common dnsmasq.leases file.
