3.5 Verifying the Linux Access Gateway Installation on RHEL

  1. From a client machine external to your Administration Console server, launch your preferred browser and enter the URL for the Administration Console.

    Use the IP address established when you installed the Administration Console. It should include the port 8080 and the application nps. If the IP address of your Administration Console is 10.10.10.50, you would enter the following:

    http://10.10.10.50:8080/nps

  2. Click OK to accept the certificate. You can select either the permanent session or the temporary session certificate option.

  3. On the Login screen, specify the administrator name and password that you defined during the Administration Console installation.

  4. Click Devices > Access Gateways.

    If the installation was successful, the IP address of your Access Gateway appears in the Server list.

    The Health status indicates the health state after the Access Gateway was imported and registered with the Administration Console. The health status should appear as green if you successfully completed the steps in Section 3.4, Configuring Hardware and System Services.

    If an Access Gateway started to import into the Administration Console, but failed to complete the process, the following message appears:

    Server gateway-<name> is currently importing. If it has been several minutes after installation, click repair import to fix it.
    
  5. (Conditional) If you have waited at least ten minutes, but the message doesn’t disappear and the Access Gateway doesn’t appear in the list, click the repair import link.

    For additional help, see Appendix, A.3 Troubleshooting the Access Gateway Import in the Novell Access Manager 3.1 SP1 Installation Guide.

    This completes the installation of the Linux Appliance.
