Installing ACMP Gateway

Last modified by Jannis Klein on 2024/08/13 08:28

Installation requirements

  • Firewall does not block the free ports for the Gateway
  • AESB version 1.5 is the minimum requirement for Gateway installation via the AESB
  • In the DMZ, the host for the Gateway should have at least the Windows version Server 2012 R2 or Windows 8.1

The installation resource ACMP Gateway.msi can be found under C:\Program Files (x86)\Aagon\ACMP Server\Installers\Gateway, if you want to use the Gateway as a Windows service.

Select one of two installation options

You have 2 options for the ACMP Gateway installation, depending on the intended use:

Intended usePossible installation method
You want to use the Gateway as a Windows service  Via the MSI file
You already have several AESB products in use, have installed the Supervisor on a Windows machine in a DMZ and would like to use the Gateway as a microserviceVia the microservice package for the AESB

Before using one of the two installation methods, you should ensure that you have two pre-configurations in both cases:

Setting the console port

For additional security of the gateway, you can separate the console port from the client port. To do this, go to the ACMP console via System > Settings > ACMP Server > General.

Under Port settings you can specify the port for the console.

Then restart the console so that you can enter the new port when logging in. Then select the check box Block ACMP Console connections on the default port. This checkbox will not be enabled until you have rebooted and entered the new ports.

Make server entries in Settings.ini

Before or after installing setup, make sure that the ACMP agents are configured to connect to the gateway. Basically, a configuration file is used for this, in which you can enter the addresses of one or more ACMP servers.

This configuration file can be found in the installation directory of the ACMP Server via ACMP Server > Client > Settings.ini.

1. Single server configuration

You can enter a single server here, but you have to make sure that

  • The server name can be resolved internally to a local IP address of the ACMP server.
  • The server name can be resolved externally to a public IP address of the gateway.

Hinweis  Note:  

Note that in this case, both the ACMP server and the ACMP gateway must later use the same port assignment.

2. Configuration with two server entries (one for the ACMP Server/one for the ACMP Gateway)

As an alternative to the first version, you can also make several entries: one entry for the ACMP Server and one entry for the ACMP Gateway. The respective IP address can also be entered directly as the server name.

Hinweis  Note:  

Note that the maximum number of servers under [Servers] max= corresponds to the server entries. Please also note that the count starts at 0. The number of the highest server entry is therefore specified (see example for a Settings.ini with two server entries).

Once you have completed these two pre-configurations, you can continue with the Gateway installation.
