Deploying Unified Access Gateway Appliance

You will be using the PowerShell script to deploy the Unified Access Gateway using an .ini file that has already been configured with you to setup a similar configuration to what you configured in Module 3 as a starting point.  You will use this starting point to configure Kerberos Delegation and Identity Bridging.

1. Open PowerShell window

Open PowerShell

Click on the PowerShell icon

2. Deploying Unified Access Gateway Appliance via PowerShell

Running the script

As the scripts starts a couple questions will be asked, follow the steps below in order to provide the correct information.

  1. Enter cd 'C:\Users\Administrator\Documents\HOL\Unified Access Gateway' then press ENTER.
  2. Enter .\uagdeploy.ps1 .\uag-ReverseProxy.ini VMware1! VMware1! false false no then press ENTER.
    The first VMware1! is the root password for the Unified Access Gateway appliance.
    The second VMware1! is the admin password for the REST API management access.
    The first false is to NOT skip the validation of signature and certificate.
    The second false is to NOT skip SSL verification for the vSphere connection.
    The no is to NOT join the VMware CEIP program.

The deployment starts and you can follow the progress on the same window or on your vSphere Web Client.

3. Confirm the PowerShell Script Deployment Completes

Deployment finished
  1. Confirm the Unified Access Gateway deployment completed successfully.  The Completed successfully text will be shown in the output.
  2. Click Close.

After successfully finalized the deployment the script will automatic Power on the VM UAG-2NIC.

The Received IP address presented by the script log is a temporary IP, the final IPs for NIC one and NIC two will be assigned to the Unified Access Gateway appliance during the first start. You can return to the vSphere Web Client to validate that as described on the next step.

NOTE: Deploying the Unified Access Gateway may take a several minutes to complete.  Please be patient while the task is fully completed.

4. Validating the deployment

Validating UAG Appliance status
  1. Click the VMs and Templates view.
  2. Expand RegionA01.
  3. If you do not see the UAG-2NIC VM under RegionA01, you may need to click Refresh first.
  4. Click on UAG-2NIC.
  5. Click on View all 2 IP addresses.
  6. The IP Addresses should show:
    192.168.110.160
    192.168.120.160

NOTE: If the Unified Access Gateway appliance has not finalized the configuration during the initial start-up, you will receive an error message from the vSphere Web Client. If this happens, refresh the Google Chrome browser.
