Ensure that the MOVEit Transfer 2020 server is installed and running.
To upgrade to MOVEit Gateway 2020
Reboot the MOVEit Gateway machine and sign in as an administrator.
Go to the Customer Portal and download the MOVEit Gateway 2020 installer for MOVEit Transfer.
Open the Gateway installer and click Run to run the install wizard.
Welcome: To agree to the End User License Agreement and begin the installation, click Next.
System Check: The installer verifies the following:
Operating System Version: The machine must be running the Windows Server 2012R2 or Server 2016 operating system
Administrator privileges
Click Next.
Gateway Configuration Interface. Designate a certificate to use as the identity of the Gateway Configuration interface. This certificate will be used for connections to the administrator interface, typically on port 9443.
Choose one of the following certificate options.
X.509 (*.pfx or *.p12) certificate from your computer (recommended): Browse to locate the SSL *.pfx or *.p12 file. Since in many cases the hostname of the Gateway server will be the hostname previously assigned to a MOVEit Transfer server, you may wish to use the certificate already installed on your MOVEit Transfer server. If you need to create a *.pfx or *.p12 file from your MOVEit Transfer server, see Create a *.pfx or *.p12 File. Enter the Certificate password in the space provided.
System-generated self-signed certificate: By default, the installer populates the Certificate Name field with MOVEit Gateway (Demo). In most cases, you will simply accept the proposed value and continue. The Certificate Name value is used to populate the CN parameter in the *.pfx or *.p12 file.
Choose the network interface and port to listen on:
Network Interface: Select a network interface (IP address) from the drop-down list. In most cases, you will want the Gateway to listen on All Interfaces.
Port: Enter the TCP port to which Gateway administrators will connect with a browser, to administer MOVEit Gateway. It is recommended that you accept the default of 9443. When configuring the TCP port for the administrative interface, do not choose a port number that is likely to already be in use by the system, such as 443. The default, 9443, is a good choice for most systems.
Click Next.
SSH Tunnel Authentication Key: Enter the SSH Tunnel Authentication Key used by the MOVEit Transfer Server tunnel, or leave blank to enter the key later.
The SSH Tunnel Authentication Key is managed by MOVEit Transfer. It is located on the MOVEit Transfer server Config Utility, on the Gateway tab.
Click Next.
Service Logon Account: Designate which account Gateway should use to run the Gateway service process:
Local System account
Different account: Enter the username and password of the different account.
Click Next.
Upgrade: Verify the upgrade options. Click Upgrade. After a few moments, the upgrade is complete.
To complete the MOVEit Gateway configuration, click Finish.
Note: When you see the Enable Windows Firewall message, ignore it for now.
