5. Install TMUT tool on a computer in the Air Gap Environment.
   This computer or server will serve as the local ActiveUpdate server that will host the EAC components. TMUT does not need to be installed on a dedicated computer. Thus, you may prefer to install it on the EAC Server itself.

      Update Now button appears if EAC Server successfully connects to the local AU Server. Otherwise, review your TMUT settings to check if you have properly configured your local AU source.
