This section lists the types of information that the installer needs when installing Portal Server Secure Remote Access Core. The information that you must supply differs according to which of the following scenarios applies:
Single-session installation. You are installing Portal Server and Portal Server Secure Remote Access together.
Multiple Session installation. You install Portal Server in one session, and then install Portal Server Secure Remote Access in a later session.

Portal Server Domain SRA_SERVER_DOMAIN |
Domain name of the Portal Server. For example, if the fully qualified domain name is siroe.subdomain1.example.com , enter subdomain1.example.com. |
Gateway Domain SRA_GATEWAY_DOMAIN |
Domain name for the gateway component. For example, if the fully qualified domain name of the Portal Server host is siroe.subdomain1.example.com, enter subdomain1.example.com . |
Gateway Port SRA_GATEWAY_PORT |
Port on which the gateway host listens. The default value is 443. |
Gateway Profile Name |
Profile that contains gateway configuration information, such as listener port, SSL options, and proxy options. The default value is default. |
Log User Password |
Password that allows administrators with non-root access to access gateway log files. |
