Overview
JFrog Distribution supports distributing your Release Bundles to remote Artifactory Edge nodes within an Air Gap environment. This use case is mainly intended fororganizations such as financial institutions and military installations that have two or more JFrog Artifactory instances that have no network connection between them.
Distributing Release Bundles in an Air Gap environment involves these main steps:
- Export the Release Bundle as an archive (zip file) from your JFrog Distribution.
- Copy the archive to an external device, such as a hard drive or USB flash drive, and transfer to the Air Gap environment (the network where the destination Artifactory is located)
- Directly Import the archive in the destination Artifactory node.
进口ing and exporting your Release Bundles can be performed using one of these methods:
- Directly in the Distribution page in the WebUI
- Using a set of dedicated Export and Import REST API commands
Supported Product Versions
The Air Gap Distribution feature is supported from Distribution 2.5 and requires Artifactory 7.9.
