Installation to the Servers

In the previous step, where you created a new packet, you were instructed to save the following two files for each server to your computer for future use: Readme.html and confproxy-4-x.license. Please open the Readme.html file - it includes installation instructions for two types of situations - first installation or upgrade from previous ISL Conference Proxy versions. This chapter is focused on the first time installation, so please follow the appropriate instructions, depending on your server's operating system.

Instructions for first installation are included below for convenience.

Please use the installation instructions below on each of the servers that will be part of your ISL GRID.

Windows

1. Run the latest ISL Conference Proxy installer (please choose 32-bit or 64-bit version, depending on your operating system) and follow the installation wizard.
   • 32-bit: https://www.islonline.com/system/installer_latest_win32
   • 64-bit: https://www.islonline.com/system/installer_latest_win64
2. Web administration will appear (also available from Start menu or address http://localhost:7615/conf).
3. Login as user admin, password asd.
4. Select Basic configuration and enter all necessary fields.

Note: We advise you to fill in the E-mail setup section so that ISL Conference Proxy will be able to send status information to your e-mail and inform you about critical events, session invitations etc.

5. Select Licenses and upload the appropriate license file for this server (confproxy-4-x.license).
6. Select Online update and download all necessary software components (ISL Light, ...).

Note: You may need to perform the Online update a few times, until all Conference Proxy components are updated. Please repeat the step 6 until there are no more updates available.

Linux

Note: If your server does not have a graphical user interface, follow steps 1 and 2 and then run the command confproxyctl headless where you will be able to change the ISL Conference Proxy admin password (default is asd) and to specify trusted networks for web administration. After that, please perform the remaining steps (starting with step 3) from a computer with a graphical user interface that is within the specified trusted network. Replace localhost in the address with the appropriate server address for your situation. An alternative is to create an ssh tunnel to your server's local port 7615 and access the web administration through the created tunnel.

1. Download the latest ISL Conference Proxy installer (please choose 32-bit or 64-bit version, depending on your operating system).

After completing the above steps for all the servers that will be part of your ISL GRID, you might be getting errors about binding ports like the example below, depending on your current network and server settings:

Server (-1) reports errors: - Cannot bind TCP port 80

All these errors regarding binding ports (if any) should be resolved after configuring your firewall - please continue to the next step: Firewall configuration.
