Complete steps on installing BlueCat Gateway can be found in the BlueCat Gateway Installation Guide on the BlueCat documentation portal.
Tip: As noted in the BlueCat Gateway Installation Guide,
after installing Gateway, you must perform additional configuration in
BlueCat Address Manager and on your system get it up and running:
- Within BlueCat Address Manager, set up a UDF named
BlueCatGateway
. - Within BlueCat Address Manager, set up a User for Gateway to use when accessing Address Manager data.
- Within the Gateway Docker container, map the Gateway logging folders to an external folder, then set needed
access access permissions for the logging folder and the
bluecat_gateway
workflows folder.
For detailed prerequisites, technical specifications, limitations, and best practices for deploying BlueCat Gateway on a BlueCat DNS/DHCP Server (BDDS), see Gateway Service on DNS/DHCP Server in the BlueCat Address Manager Administration Guide.
