Installing SSH Tectia Client on Linux on x86 Architecture

SSH Tectia Client for Linux is supplied in RPM (Red Hat Package Manager) binary packages for Red Hat Enterprise Linux and SUSE Linux. There are separate packages for Linux versions running on the 32-bit x86 and the 64-bit x86-64 architecture.

The SSH Tectia online installation bundle contains the RPM installation files and the license file. On the installation CD-ROM, the installation packages for Linux are located in the /install/linux/ directory.

To install SSH Tectia Client on Linux, follow the instructions below:

Download the relevant installation bundle according to your platform and license type (commercial or evaluation):
- For 32-bit Linux platforms on x86 architecture:
```
ssh-tectia-client-<version>-linux-x86-comm.tar
ssh-tectia-client-<version>-linux-x86-upgrd-eval.tar
```
- For 64-bit Linux platforms on x86-64 architecture:
```
ssh-tectia-client-<version>-linux-x86_64-comm.tar
ssh-tectia-client-<version>-linux-x86_64-upgrd-eval.tar
```
In the package names, <version> is the current product release (for example, 6.0.7-123).
Select the installation packages (in this example, we install the x86-64 version). Two packages are required: one for the specific components of SSH Tectia Client, and another for the common components of SSH Tectia Client and Server:
```
ssh-tectia-client-<version>-linux-x86_64.rpm
ssh-tectia-common-<version>-linux-x86_64.rpm
```

Install the packages with root privileges:

# rpm -Uvh ssh-tectia-client-<version>-linux-x86_64.rpm
# rpm -Uvh ssh-tectia-common-<version>-linux-x86_64.rpm

Copy the license file to the /etc/ssh2/licenses directory. (This is not necessary in "third-digit" maintenance updates.) See also License File.
