SCADA Gateway Installation and Configuration Manual Installation 11
© Tait Limited May 2017
SCADA gateway license(s) can be obtained only after the SCADA
gateway software has been installed.
2.1.1 High Availability
When installing an HA system, the following rules should be applied:
1. The Active IP address for the SCADA gateways should be different
from the Active IP address for the DMR nodes.
2. The SCADA gateway(s) should access the active IP address of the
DMR HA nodes regardless of whether or not they are co-hosted.
3. A co-hosted DMR node and SCADA gateway may use the same IP
address (e.g. the
eth0 primary address), but it is recommended to
either configure a static IP address on a separate NIC e.g.
eth1, or a
sub interface e.g.
eth0:2. (See Appendix 2: Adding an Alternate
Interface in CentOS)
The DMR node always uses eth0 and eth0:1, so the SCADA
gateway must use the alternative interface. The interface name e.g.
eth0:2 or eth1 is configured in the file /home/taitnet/
scadagw/scadagw.cfg
with key NetworkDevice.
2.2 Installing the SCADA Gateway on the DMR Node
Controller

2. Install DMR node.
3. Install the SCADA gateway:
a. The installer is provided in an iso image Q9361RH6_<version
number>.iso
b. Create a USB flash drive containing the SCADA gateway
installer as described in
Appendix 1: Transferring an ISO Image
to a USB Flash Drive.
4. Insert the USB drive.
5. As root user, enter the following
# cd /cdrom
# ./install
