RSA Authentication Manager 7.1 Installation and Configuration Guide

RSA Authentication Manager 7.1 Installation and Configuration Guide
Pre-Installation Checklist for Windows
You must have:
A machine that meets all of the hardware, disk space, memory, and platform
requirements described in “Windows System Requirements” on page 12.
Local administrator privileges on the machine.
A C: partition.
An existing Temp directory.
A static IP address. DHCP is not supported.
Note: If the machine has multiple network interface cards, make sure that the
IP address and hostname that you specify during installation belong to the
interface you want to use. The default is for the primary network adapter. The
Security Console listens only to the IP address that you specify. Failure to
verify the IP address and hostname will result in installation or server startup
problems.
A password between 8 and 32 characters including at least 6 alphabetic characters
and 1 non-alphanumeric character. “@” and “~” are not allowed. This
case-sensitive default administrator account password is used in Authentication
Manager for the Super Admin password as well as the master password for initial
access to protect the vault containing important system passwords. You can
change both passwords after installation if desired. See “Managing Passwords and
Keys” on page 95.
You must:
If you downloaded the ISO image of Authentication Manager, you must perform a
checksum to make sure the sum matches the published checksum on the RSA
download site. If the sum does not match, an error may have occurred in
transmission. Download the ISO image again.
Verify that the host does not have an existing installation of RADIUS or Oracle.
An existing RADIUS server or Oracle database server must be uninstalled before
you proceed with the new installation, which includes an internal database.
Verify that the ports described in “Port Usage” on page 16 are available.
