Installation packages
Kerio WinRoute Firewall is distributed in two editions: one is for 32-bit systems and the other
for 64-bit systems (see the product’s download page:
The 32-bit edition (the “win32” installation package) supports the following operating systems:
•
Windows 2000
•
Windows XP (32 bit)
•
Windows Server 2003 (32 bit)
•
Windows Vista (32 bit)
•
Windows Server 2008 (32 bit)
The 64-bit edition (the “win64” installation package) supports the following operating systems:
•
Windows XP (64 bit)
•
Windows Server 2003 (64 bit)
•
Windows Vista (64 bit)
•
Windows Server 2008 (64 bit)
Older versions of Windows operating systems are not supported.
Note:
1.
WinRoute installation packages include the Kerio Administration Console. The separate
Kerio Administration Console installation package (file kerio-kwf-admin*.exe) is de-
signed for remote administration from another host. This package is identical both for
32-bit and 64-bit Windows systems. For details on WinRoute administration, see chapter
2.
For correct functionality of the Kerio StaR interface (see chapter
), it is necessary that
the WinRoute host’s operating system supports all languages that would be used in the
Kerio StaR interface. Some languages (Chinese, Japonese, etc.) may require installation of
supportive files. For details, refer to documents regarding the corresponding operating
system.
Steps to be taken before the installation
Install WinRoute on a computer which is used as a gateway connecting the local network and
the Internet. This computer must include at least one interface connected to the local network
(Ethernet, WiFi, etc.) and at least one interface connected to the Internet. You can use either
a network adapter (Ethernet, WiFi, etc.) or a modem (analog, ISDN, etc.) as an Internet interface.
