    -======Process of Integrating SSG into the Operator's Network====== +======Testing and Integration Process====== 
    -=====Step 1. Server Preparation===== +=====Stage 1. Preparing Servers and Virtual Machines===== 
    -**Client Responsibilities:** +**Responsibilities of the telecom operator or partner preparing the equipment for delivery:** 
    -  - Prepare the server according to the requirements: +  - Prepare a server or VM according to the requirements: 
    -    * [[en:dpi:dpi_brief:dpi_requirements#recommended_requirements|SSG requirements]] +    * [[en:dpi:dpi_brief:dpi_requirements#recommended_requirements|Requirements for SSG (DPI, BRAS, NAT)]]. If using a [[en:dpi:dpi_brief:dpi_requirements#requirements_for_installation_on_a_virtual_machine|VM for SSG, follow the setup instructions]] 
    -    * [[en:dpi:dpi_components:dpiui:hardware_recommendations#recommended_requirements|GUI requirements]] +    * [[en:dpi:dpi_components:dpiui:hardware_recommendations#recommended_requirements|Requirements for GUI]] 
    -    * [[en:dpi:dpi_components:qoestor:hardware_recommendations#recommended_requirements_for_every_10gbps_peak_traffic_on_dpi|QoE requirements]]\\ GUI and QoE can be combined on the same server. +    * [[en:dpi:dpi_components:qoestor:hardware_recommendations#recommended_requirements_for_every_10gbps_peak_traffic_on_dpi|Requirements for QoE]]\\ **QoE must not be installed on the SSG server. \\ GUI may be installed on the SSG server only for testing purposes. For production, GUI must be deployed on a separate server or VM. \\ GUI and QoE may be installed on the same server; in this case, hardware requirements are cumulative.** 
    -  - Provide servers with VEOS installed. Pay attention to the [[en:veos:installation#pre-configuring_veos|preliminary VEOS configuration]]. +  - Install the [[en:veos:installation|VEOS]] operating system. Be sure to configure the [[en:veos:installation#pre-configuring_veos|Firewall for access restriction]] and use strong passwords. 
    -  - Provide access. Two options are available: +  - Ensure network connectivity between the designated servers or VMs. 
    -    - Send login and password for SSH. +  - Provide SSH access (port ''22'') to each server over the internet or via WireGuard VPN. GUI additionally requires HTTPS access (port ''443''). Each server must have internet access to install software. Check connectivity using the command: <code>ping vasexperts.com</code> Two access options are available: 
    -    - Use a ready-made script to add servers to Teleport.+    - Provide login and password for SSH access. 
     +    - Use the ready-made script to add servers to Teleport. The script is available upon request via your account manager.
