Gateways

– from [SCG 1 2101] –

Configure each new instance after installation in the Configuration view under Gateways.

VPN connections of a gateway instance

Each new SCG instance must be reachable for the target devices via VPN.

SCG Configuration Gateways

  1. Select your new instance.
  2. Variants for multiple gateway instances: Same host name and different ports or different host names and same port.
  3. VPN port
    • Use a free port. The system does not check for existing assignments.
    • Open the port in your firewall.
  4. Range of IP addresses that will be assigned by the Scout Cloud Gateway for secure communication with eLux Example: 10.0.10.0

  5. Subnet mask for the IP address range Example: 255.255.255.0

Web server configuration

During installation (1-from SCG 1 2209 also for the Debian installation) the system automatically creates a self-signed certificate that secures the connection between the web server and the [WebAdmin interface] of the SCG instance (2-from SCG 1 2101). This allows the administrator to perform further configuration using the [WebAdmin interface] - and an HTTPS connection - immediately after installing an SCG instance. The self-signed certificate is valid for 365 days and is renewed automatically.

If you have an individual certificate, replace the self-signed certificate. To do so, click Select file (3-only for VMs (.ova installation)).

For multiple gateway instances, you can either use a separate certificate for each instance and assign it in the respective WebAdmin interface. Alternatively, use a wildcard certificate for all instances, if this is applicable within your structure.
