HI Kishore,

Yes it is possible. No dependency on Solman

Below are rough implementation plan.

1. Create a customer message with the component  XX-SER-NET-HTL providing SAP with

     a. A public IP address,

     b. The Saprouter hostname and

     c. Whether we are going to use a SNC connection or a VPN connection

2. SAP would reply back to the same that they have done the necessary and they would provide with IP address and hostname of SAP server.

3. Separate physical host with minimum hardware configuration (128 MB RAM, 10 GB HDD, P III)

4. Software:

     a. SAP Router Software à https://support.sap.com/software/patches/a-z-index.html

     b. Crypto Library à https://support.sap.com/software/patches/a-z-index.html

     c. SAPCAR à https://support.sap.com/software/patches/a-z-index.html

5. Set the environment variable :

• Windows :

          SECUDIR=drive:\usr\sap\saprouter

         LD_LIBRARY_PATH=drive:\usr\sap\saprouter
           SNC_LIB=drive:\usr\sap\saprouter\libsapcrypto.so

• Linux :

          SECUDIR=/usr/sap/saprouter
           LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/sap/saprouter
           SNC_LIB=/usr/sap/saprouter/libsapcrypto.so

6. Go through this link to generate the SAProuter certificate à https://support.sap.com/remote-support/saprouter/saprouter-certificates.html

7. Generate certificate request at OS level using the command sapgenpse

8. Import the certificate 

9. Need to create the user credential for who will administer the sap router

10.   Start Sap Router

And few very good documents and sites as below will make you clear.

Hi  Kishore,

I am also new to SAP. Initially i also had the same doubt but when i posted the question in scn i got many replies saying it is always better to configure router in solution manager since whenever the router problem occurs we can check the router by restarting the server which in turn won't affect the main ECC system.And also whenever you are renewing he saprouter license it will be a bit of complex process and you need to cut and paste many folders and hence it will be helpful.However there is no problem if you install it in UAT system but need to be careful.

Thanks&Regards,

Hello Kishor,

SAP Router is not dependent to Solution Manager.

You can install it on any server.
