Creating an App using the API

In addition to creating a Droplet from the NetFoundry Zero Trust Networking 1-Click App using the control panel, you can also use the DigitalOcean API. As an example, to create a 4GB NetFoundry Zero Trust Networking Droplet in the SFO2 region, you can use the following curl command. You need to either save your API access token) to an environment variable or substitute it in the command below.

curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
         -H 'Authorization: Bearer '$TOKEN'' -d \
        '{"name":"choose_a_name","region":"sfo2","size":"s-2vcpu-4gb","image": "netfoundry-7-6"}' \
        "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/droplets"

Getting Started After Deploying NetFoundry Zero Trust Networking

Launch the droplet with privileged log in name “nfadmin” and an SSH pubkey2.

Next you’ll register the NG GW with a one-time key. Registration instructions:

  1. Create a NetFoundry network through your NF Console; i.e., https://console.netfoundry.io
  2. In the NF Console console create a gateway of type “VCPE” (the general-purpose type) and click the registration key to copy it to your clipboard
  3. log in as “nfadmin” and exec sudo nfnreg {one-time key}
  4. In the NF Console the status of your new gateway will change to REGISTERED (green light)More details about gateways: https://netfoundry.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360017558212-Introduction-to-Gateway-Endpoints
