Installing DMZ Gateway on a non-Windows System

The installation process on each non-Windows operating system is the same, with a few minor differences. The basic process of installation can be described as follows:

Copy the appropriate installer archive file (.tgz) to the target machine.
Extract the contents of the installer archive. The archive contains two files: an installation script and an archive of the actual program files.
Run the installation script as root and follow the prompts.

The process for supported non-Windows operating systems is described below. (For installation on Windows systems, refer to Installing DMZ Gateway.)

The installation script includes registering and starting the DMZ Gateway server daemon (configuring it to auto-start on system start and auto-stop on system stop). Alternately, you can start the server manually using the command <InstallDir>/bin/dmzgatewayd start. Refer to Manually Registering and Deregistering the DMZ Gateway Server Daemon if you decide not to register the daemon during the installation process.

Installing DMZ Gateway on RedHat or SuSE Linux 32-Bit or 64-Bit

To install DMZ Gateway

Transfer the appropriate DMZ Gateway Linux installer archive to a convenient directory on the target machine.
On the target machine, open a terminal window. The installation package must be run with root privileges. If not already logged on as the root user, change to root using the su command in the terminal window:

su
Change to the directory containing the installer archive and perform the following:
- On 32-bit systems:
- gunzip dmz-gateway-linux-x86-32.tgz
  
  tar xvf dmz-gateway-linux-x86-32.tar
  
  ./Install.sh
- On 64-bit systems:
- gunzip dmz-gateway-linux-x86-64.tgz
  
  tar xvf dmz-gateway-linux-x86-64.tar
  
  ./Install.sh
Follow the prompts to complete the installation.
- You are prompted to accept the license agreement, and to specify the installation and configuration directories (e.g., /opt/dmzgateway), etc.
- After everything is installed, you are prompted to register and start the DMZ Gateway daemon service.
- If you start the service, you can execute the DMZ Gateway Administration interface script (e.g., type: /opt/dmzgateway/bin/DMZGatewayAdmin).

Refer to the example below for details of the installation process.
