- JDK—Verify that you installed the supported 64-bit JDK. Verify the supported Java version on the Platform Support Matrix.
- JCE—Verify that JRE supports unlimited key strength in the Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) package.For JDK 1.8_151 and later, perform the following steps:
- Navigate to thejdk_home/jre/lib/security directory and open thejava.securityfile.
- Uncomment the following line:crypto.policy=unlimited
- Save the file.
For the other previous versions of JDK, perform the following steps:- Locate the JCE package for your operating system from the Oracle website.
- Download the unlimited JCE package for the Java version that is supported byCA Access Gateway.
- Navigate to thejdk_home\jre\lib\security directory on your system and apply the patch to the following files:
- local_policy.jar
- US_export_policy.jar
Note:jdk_homespecifies the location of the Java installation.
On Linux, verify that the following additional prerequisites are met:
- Ensure that the user who is used for installingCA Access Gatewayhas write permissions on the /opt directory.

- Increase the source of randomness for the entropy pool. Use one of the following options:
- (Most secure) Install ahardware entropy generatorand configure the rngd daemon to populate /dev/random by entering the following command:rngd -r /dev/device_name-o /dev/random -bdevice_nameis character device in use. The device name varies depending on the hardware random number generator that you are using, for example, /dev/hwrng.For more information about the rngd daemon, see the Red Hat documentation.
- (Good security) Configure the rngd daemon to populate /dev/random by entering the following command:rngd -r /dev/urandom -o /dev/random -bThird-party alternatives to the rngd entropy daemon are also available.
- (Least secure) Configure a symbolic link between /dev/urandom and /dev/random by entering the following commands:mv /dev/random /dev/random.orgln -s /dev/urandom /dev/random
