This section covers how to install CADP for C:

To install CADP for C on Linux, refer to Installing CADP for C on Linux.

To install CADP for C on Windows, refer to Installing CADP for C on Windows.

After installing CADP for C, you can further configure CADP for C to meet the requirements of your environment. Refer to the Configuration section for further details.

After successful installation of CADP for C:

  1. The CADP_CAPI.properties and CADP_PKCS11.properties files are updated with basic informaion such as:

    • NAE_IP

    • NAE_PORT

    • CA_File (for SSL only)

    • Cert_File (for SSL only)

    • Key_File (for SSL only)

    • Passphrase (for SSL only)

    • Passphrase_Encrypted (for SSL only)

  2. For Advanced configuration, you can update the properties file:

    • Linux

      • CADP for C CAPI - InstalledDirectory/CipherTrust/CADP_for_C/CADP_CAPI.properties

      • CADP for C PKCS#11 - InstalledDirectory/CipherTrust/CADP_for_C/CADP_PKCS11.properties

    • Windows

      • CADP for C CAPI - C:\Program Files\CipherTrust\CADP_for_C\CADP_CAPI.properties or InstalledDirectory\CADP_CAPI.properties

      • CADP for C PKCS#11 - C:\Program Files\CipherTrust\CADP_for_C\CADP_PKCS11.properties or InstalledDirectory]\CADP_PKCS11.properties

Note

After installation, if you have selected SSL protocol, ensure that there is no error log present in InstalledDirectory/logs/cadp_for_c_basic.log. If there are any error in the logs, you need to re-run the installer with correct values.
