3.1.3 Installing Novell ZENworks Network Access Control
When you install the Novell ZENworks Network Access Control software for the first time, you
need to put the Novell ZENworks Network Access Control CD directly into the computer that will
be the Novell ZENworks Network Access Control server (MS or ES). You cannot install any other
software on this computer. Installing the Novell ZENworks Network Access Control software also
installs the operating system (OS) that Novell ZENworks Network Access Control uses. This OS is
hardened making it very secure.
IMPORTANT: Installing third-party software on the Novell ZENworks Network Access Control
server is not supported. If you install additional software on the Novell ZENworks Network Access
Control server, you will have to remove it in order to troubleshoot any Novell ZENworks Network
Access Control issues, and it will likely be partially or fully overwritten during Novell ZENworks
Network Access Control release upgrades or patch installs, compromising the third-party software
functionality. Additionally, installing third-party software and/or modifying the Novell ZENworks
Network Access Control software may violate your license agreement. Please refer to the Novell
EULA, which can be found in the Novell ZENworks Network Access Control Users Guide.
There are two scenarios for Novell ZENworks Network Access Control installation:
Single-server installation — Install Novell ZENworks Network Access Control as a single-
server installation, where the MS and the ES are both on the same server. The ES is
automatically joined to an Enforcement cluster. The high availability (HA) and load balancing
(LB) functions are not available with this installation option.
Multiple-server installation — Install Novell ZENworks Network Access Control as a
multiple-server installation where the MS and the ES or ESs are on different servers. One or
more ESs are joined to a specified Enforcement cluster in the user interface. You must have two
or more ESs joined to an Enforcement cluster for HA or LB functionality.
After you install Novell ZENworks Network Access Control, you need to use a computer (other than
the MS or ES) with a browser for configuration and daily operation tasks.
See the Novell ZENworks Network Access Control Users Guide for more information on HA and
LB.
