Refer to the Installation and Configuration Guide for installation instructions.
Only install STA on a system that is within the same protected (firewalled) network infrastructure as the monitored libraries. You should enforce customer access controls on the systems where STA is installed to restrict access to the application.
The STA installer may modify permissions on some files and directories to allow the STA application running as Oracle user access to certain files. For example: /etc/.java.
The firewall must allow communication on the ports used by the STA application. For a list of ports, see the following sections in the Administration Guide:
"Configurable Ports"
"Unconfigurable Ports"
"Ports for Communications with SDP"
Firewall configuration is dependant on the OS version. Review the configuration of the iptables and troubleshooting sections as needed.
"Enable the Linux Firewall iptables" in the Installation and Configuration Guide
"Troubleshooting" appendix in the Administration Guide
