Manual Local Installation from the Command Line

  • Last updated on

Local installation from the command line on the remote PC follows the same procedure as Installation using a Windows GPO form the Command Line without using a GPO. You can simply execute a one-line command with options and arguments as shown below to immediately install the Barracuda WSA on the remote computer. To manually install the Barracuda WSA, at the command line, type something like the following, all on one line. Examples using the .msi and .exe setup files follow.

BarracudaWSASetup.exe /s /v" /qb SERVICE_MODE=2 SERVICE_URL=10.1.0.51 SERVICE_PORT=8280 WD=1

./lvmo sets the level of logging; this example writes a log file to the setup directory called setup.log.

(1) Note: See Windows InstallShield (.exe) documentation for information about command line options.


Table 2. Command line examples with MSI installer

You must have Microsoft .NET framework installed if you choose to install the Barracuda WSA using the MSI installation method. The MSI file does not install the.NET framework for you. If you do not install the .NET framework before you begin installation with the .MSI file, a message appears prompting you to download and install the .NET framework and then install the Barracuda WSA. For Microsoft .NET Framework and Windows version compatibility, see Requirements for the Barracuda Web Security Agent With Windows.
