Downloading DSE package in an offline environment
In offline environments, you can download DSE packages via proxy.
In offline environments, you must download DSE packages via proxy or repository mirror. DataStax software is available for download from rpm.datastax.com for RPM packages or debian.datastax.com for Debian packages.
Download by proxy
If target nodes are able to perform HTTP or HTTPS downloads via a proxy, such as Squid, then LCM
can configure the targets to use the proxy when downloading DSE packages. For more, see
Configuring a proxy for package downloads.
Attention: Running an open and public proxy can lead to
a wide variety of abuse and security issues. Ensure your proxy is appropriately secured,
including required authentication and firewall protection.
Download by repository mirror
Instead of downloading the DataStax package from the official repository, you can download
the DataStax packages from a local mirror of the DataStax package repository. Consult with
the administrators of your repository mirror to add one of the DataStax repositories. See the DataStax Support Knowledge Base.
