Installs PacketFence, the open source network access control (NAC) system, as a virtual machine in the Unraid VM tab. PacketFence itself does not run in Docker; this container is only the installer.
It downloads the official PacketFence ZEN appliance (about 8 GB, MD5-checked), converts its VMware disk into an Unraid vdisk, creates the VM and starts it. Then the container stops. The VM is a normal Unraid VM: start, stop, edit and back it up in the VM tab. Running the container again never changes an existing VM.
Needs: VMs enabled (Settings > VM Manager), 16 GB of free memory and 4 cores for the VM, about 40 GB free in the VM storage during the import (the vdisk is 200 GB thin-provisioned, about 21 GB used).
After the start: open the VM's VNC console in the VM tab. The first network card gets its address by DHCP. Console login root / p@ck3tf3nc3 (change it). Then open https://VM-address:1443 and go through the configurator.
