Overview

The Zero TouchClosed Allows users to manage the initial configurations of "Small Office" and "Gaia Gateways" easily and remotely. Settings from the Zero Touch Server replace the First Time Configuration Wizard. The Zero Touch Cloud Service runs a Web Portal and supports REST API. All actions are available through API calls. Cloud Service allows administrators to manage the initial configurations of hundreds or thousands of Quantum Security Gateways (supported starting from R80.20) and Quantum Spark Appliances (supported starting from R80.20.00) . You can configure Time Zones, administrator passwords, and network information.

Quantum Security Gateways administrators can save time with Gaia image installations on multiple remote Security Gateways with Gaia Fast Deployment images.
