Installing and configuring the Secure Gateway Client

Installing and configuring the Secure Gateway Client is the second step in establishing a connection between the IBM Secure Gateway server and your on-premises data.

Note: If you are viewing the Add client page on the wizard, but already installed Secure Gateway Client, do the following:
  1. Select I have already installed the client and click Next.
  2. Proceed to Adding a destination.

Install and configure the Secure Gateway Client so that it can establish connections with both the IBM Secure Gateway on Cloud server and with an on-premises database that will use the Secure Gateway.
