When installing the Proxy Gateway Server, make sure that the respective workstation
provides enough disk space to store host sessions: a typical desktop takes between one
and 2 Megabytes per minute.
Therefore it might be recommended to install the Proxy Gateway Server on multiple
workstations.
However, in principle it is sufficient to install it once on any workstation of the Apollo
network or on TransForm A.
Sessions recorded with Apollo 1.8SR1 or earlier need to be converted. Contact Barco for
help!
The Proxy Gateway software runs as a service. The system resources required depend on the number of active
Cottus Viewer / host connections that the gateway must support simultaneously, as well as on the bandwidth
required by each connection.
The Proxy Gateway may be installed on the same PC as the Proxy Host.
Before starting installation, make sure that the operating system security policy "Network
access" is set to classic mode, and that there is a member domain\RemoteControlGateway
or similar.
To install the Proxy Gateway Server, proceed as follows:
• On the respective computer, log in with administrative privileges.
• Navigate to the respective folder on the Apollo CD-ROM and double click on setup.exe.
The installation process starts.
Follow the instructions on the screen.
On the next dialog, select the components to be installed, Proxy Gateway Server and/or Proxy Gateway Admin-
istrator.
