Cisco Secure Access Help Manage Resource Connectors and Connector Groups Deploy a Connector in Docker Procedure Set Up the Resource Connector and Container

Last updated: Aug 07, 2025

Set Up the Resource Connector and Container

Note: On the host, Secure Access supports running one Docker container.

To begin, get the Secure Access Resource Connector setup script (setup_connector.sh). Then, set the permissions on the script and run the script.

The setup_connector.sh script downloads the scripts and configuration files that are required to set up and run the resource connector in the Docker container. The setup_connector.sh script saves the scripts and configuration files in the /opt/connector/install directory.

  1. Log into the host or VM with a user that has sudo permissions.
  2. Run curl to get the Secure Access Resource Connector setup script (setup_connector.sh).
    curl -o setup_connector.sh https://us.repo.acgw.sse.cisco.com/scripts/latest/setup_connector.sh
  3. Set the permissions on the script.
    chmod +x setup_connector.sh
  4. Run the setup_connector.sh script.
    sudo ./setup_connector.sh

For information about error conditions that may occur when you set up of the resource connector, see Troubleshoot Container Deployments – Setup Failures.
