Installing Gallium Edge
You install Gallium Edge by booting the server from the bootstrap image, then registering it in the Gallium Console. Registration continues straight into creating the Storage Pool, which erases the selected disks and installs the operating system on them.
Evaluating Gallium Edge on Digital Ocean
If you want to try Gallium Edge before committing physical hardware, you can run it on a Digital Ocean droplet. Digital Ocean supports importing a custom disk image and booting a droplet from it, which lets you stand up an evaluation hypervisor in minutes and explore the Console at minimal cost.
SSL Whitelisting
Gallium Edge uses TLS encryption for all traffic between the hypervisor on your server and the Gallium Console. If your server sits behind a firewall or proxy that performs SSL inspection, that device intercepts and re-signs TLS connections, which breaks the hypervisor's ability to reach the Console. To keep everything working, whitelist the endpoints and addresses below so this traffic bypasses SSL inspection.
