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 PingOne LDAP gateway software .zip archive from the PingOne admin console and adding the service to a computer running Windows. This functionality is available in RADIUS Gateway 1.2 and later.

Before you begin

  • Set up a Radius gateway. Learn more in Setting up a RADIUS gateway

  • 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. Learn more in 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

Most extract utilities will extract the PingOne RADIUS gateway software .zip archive 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
