PingAM 8.0.0

Download AM

The Backstage download site hosts downloads, including a .zip file with all of the AM components, the .war file, AM tools, the configurator, web and Java agents, PingGateway, and documentation. Review the Software License and Subscription Agreement presented before you download AM files.

For each release of AM, you can download the entire package as a .zip file, only the AM .war file, or only the administrative tools as a .zip archive.

After you download the .zip file, create a new directory for AM, and unzip the .zip file to access the content.

$ cd ~/Downloads
$ mkdir am && cd am
$ unzip ~/Downloads/AM-8.0.0.zip

When you unzip the archive of the entire package, you get samples, snmp and legal-notices directories in addition to the following files:
