# Gateway Installation

> Install the Agent Router gateway into a self-hosted data plane and wire DNS and TLS, with cloud-specific variants for GCP, Azure, and AWS.

# Gateway Installation

  With the data plane running, the gateway is the component that answers on the Proxy URL chosen during onboarding. Installation wires the gateway into the cluster, then connects DNS and TLS so the endpoint answers over HTTPS. A generic guide covers the common path; cloud-specific variants cover GCP, Azure, and AWS particulars. On AWS the certificate is yours rather than installer-provisioned.
