How to Deploy the CloudGen Access CLI

The CloudGen Access CLI client, access-cli, is available for Linux, macOS, and Windows.

If you use Homebrew on Linux or macOS, Barracuda Networks recommends installing access-cli through our Homebrew tap.

If you are using an operating system and architecture for which Barracuda Networks provides pre-built binaries, Barracuda Networks recommends using those. Just download the appropriate archive from the releases page. Barracuda Networks also provides deb and rpm packages. The access-cli binaries are statically compiled and have no external dependencies.

Inside each archive, you will find the executable for the corresponding platform, a copy of the README, and the license. Simply extract the executable and place it where you find most convenient (for example, in most Linux distros, you could use /usr/local/bin  for a system-wide install). Do not forget to add the executable to $PATH, or equivalent, if desired.

If Barracuda Networks does not provide a pre-built binary for your platform, or if you want to make changes to access-cli, you can compile it yourself, following these instructions.
