PingOne

Running a standalone RADIUS gateway as a Windows service

You can run the PingOne RADIUS gateway as a standalone Windows service. You’ll do this by downloading a ZIP archive and adding the service to a computer running Windows. This functionality is available in RADIUS Gateway 1.2 and later.

Before you begin

  • If you have a valid gateway credential, have it ready. Alternatively, you can create a new credential on the Overview tab in the gateway details. See Creating or deleting a gateway credential.

  • Install Java version 17.0.8 or later or Java version 21 LTS or later on the computer that will run the gateway.

  • Create a JAVA_HOME system environment variable that points to the directory that contains the bin directory from the Java distribution.

Directory structure

You’ll download the PingOne RADIUS gateway software in a ZIP archive. Most extract utilities will extract the files to a directory with a pattern of pingone-radius-gateway-<version>. This directory structure is part of the ZIP archive. For best results, do not rename the pingone-radius-gateway-<version> directory.

The archive extracts the files with the following directory structure:

Parent directory

C:\Program Files\Ping Identity

RADIUS Gateway directory

C:\Program Files\Ping Identity\pingone-radius-gateway-<version>

run.properties location

C:\Program Files\Ping Identity\pingone-radius-gateway-<version>\config

Batch files location

C:\Program Files\Ping Identity\pingone-radius-gateway-<version>\bin\windows
