You can deploy the Red Hat Edge Manager control plane on a Red Hat Enterprise Linux host and then configure authentication, the HTTPS gateway, and optional integrations.

To get started by using Red Hat Edge Manager on Red Hat Enterprise Linux, you must first:

• Install the Red Hat Edge Manager RPM package
• Plan DNS and TLS for the HTTPS gateway on port 443
• Configure your credentials
• Install the Flight Control CLI
• Optional: For Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform, OpenID Connect, or other authentication choices after installation, see the authentication options topic.

If you already run Red Hat Edge Manager on Red Hat Enterprise Linux and want to upgrade to a newer release, see the upgrade topic.

For disconnected or air-gapped sites, see Installing Red Hat Edge Manager on Red Hat Enterprise Linux in disconnected environments in the Additional resources section.
