ggRock installation requires a set-up server. Provided there are no issues during the installation process it shouldn’t take more than 2 hours.
Visit ggRock Hardware Requirements and Recommendations if you have questions about hardware.
Prerequisites
Your server should be connected to the Internet.
Your LAN should have a DHCP server set up and functional. Most likely it's already turned on your internet router. ggRock at the time does not have a DHCP server and works in proxy mode.
There should be only one PXE server in any given LAN segment - ggRock.
You don't use any management features in your network gear and don't configure settings 66 and 67 for PXE boot.
Spanning tree should NOT be enabled for the LAN segment ggRock and clients are on.
Warning: All of these prerequisites have to be met before proceeding to the Installation phase
