The following sections provide high-level setup information for Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) used in offline air-gap network deployments. WSL offers a lightweight Linux environment on Windows, enabling the execution of Linux-based tools and commands required for container and image management.

In this setup, WSL is used to run the ccm-agn-wsl environment and perform tasks such as handling container images, certificates, and related artifacts needed for offline deployments.

In an air-gap deployment, the target environment, including the Cluster Control Manager (CCM), does not have access to the public internet. A separate client system with internet access is used to download the required artifacts, which are then securely transferred to the air-gap environment.

The WSL environment facilitates these operations by providing a consistent Linux runtime for managing solution images, certificates, and container workflows. For more detailed procedures and configuration guidelines, see your solution documentation.
