Installing from ISO

ForInstall SAS Radius on your own (on-premise) server, install SAS Radiusserver from the bootable ISO image.

Download the SAS Radius ISO image. The same ISO can be installed in two ways:

Virtual machine: on Proxmox, VMware (ESXi / Workstation), VirtualBox or another hypervisor. Bare metal: directly on a physical server, from a USB drive.

Download the ISO: https://dl.snono.systems/files/sasradius.iso

Option 1: Virtual machine (Proxmox, VMware, VirtualBox)

Upload the ISO to your hypervisor (for example Proxmox: local → ISO Images → Upload). Create a new virtual machine:

Guest OS: Linux, Ubuntu 64-bit. Firmware: BIOS / Legacy (not UEFI). Proxmox: SeaBIOS; VMware: BIOS; VirtualBox: leave Enable EFI unticked. CPU, RAM and disk as in System Requirements. Network: a bridged network adapter, so your routers can reach the server directly. Attach the SAS Radius ISO as the CD/DVD drive. Start the virtual machine and choose Install SAS RADIUS. The installation runs automatically. The machine reboots twice; when the login prompt appears, the installation is finished. Remove the ISO from the virtual CD/DVD drive.

Option 2: Bare metal (physical server from USB)

Write itthe ISO to a USB drive,drive forwith examplea tool such as Rufus or balenaEtcher, or on Linux: dd if=sasradius.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=4M (sdX = your USB drive), or use a tool such as Rufus or balenaEtcher.. In the server BIOS, disable UEFI boot (use Legacy/BIOS boot mode). Boot from the USB drive and choose Install SAS RADIUS. The installation runs automatically. The server reboots twice; when the login prompt appears, the installation is finished.
