This guide will walk you through setting up, configuring and managing 您的 GitHub Enterprise Server 实例 as an enterprise administrator.
GitHub provides two ways to deploy GitHub Enterprise.
- GitHub Enterprise Cloud
- GitHub Enterprise Server
GitHub hosts GitHub Enterprise Cloud. You can deploy and host GitHub Enterprise Server in your own datacenter or a supported cloud provider.
For an overview of how GitHub Enterprise Server works, see "System overview."
第 1 部分：安装 GitHub Enterprise Server
To get started with GitHub Enterprise Server, you will need to create your enterprise account, install the instance, use the Management Console for initial setup, configure your instance, and manage billing.
1. Creating your enterprise account
Before you install GitHub Enterprise Server, you can create an enterprise account on GitHub.com by contacting GitHub's Sales team. An enterprise account on GitHub.com is useful for billing and for shared features with GitHub.com via GitHub Connect. 更多信息请参阅“关于企业帐户”。
2. 安装 GitHub Enterprise Server
To get started with GitHub Enterprise Server, you will need to install the appliance on a virtualization platform of your choice. 更多信息请参阅“设置 GitHub Enterprise Server 实例”。
3. Using the Management Console
You will use the Management Console to walk through the initial setup process when first launching 您的 GitHub Enterprise Server 实例. You can also use the Management Console to manage instance settings such as the license, domain, authentication, and TLS. For more information, see "Accessing the management console."
4. 配置 您的 GitHub Enterprise Server 实例
In addition to the Management Console, you can use the site admin dashboard and the administrative shell (SSH) to manage 您的 GitHub Enterprise Server 实例. For example, you can configure applications and rate limits, view reports, use command-line utilities. For more information, see "Configuring your enterprise."
You can use the default network settings used by GitHub Enterprise Server via the dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP), or you can also configure the network settings using the virtual machine console. 您还可以配置代理服务器或防火墙规则。 For more information, see "Configuring network settings."
5. 配置高可用性
You can configure 您的 GitHub Enterprise Server 实例 for high availability to minimize the impact of hardware failures and network outages. For more information, see "Configuring high availability."

To protect your production data, you can configure automated backups of 您的 GitHub Enterprise Server 实例 with GitHub Enterprise Server 备份实用程序. 更多信息请参阅“在设备上配置备份”。
8. 管理企业的帐单
Billing for all the organizations and GitHub Enterprise Server instances connected to your enterprise account is aggregated into a single bill charge for all of your paid GitHub.com services. Enterprise owners and billing managers can access and manage billing settings for enterprise accounts. For more information, see "Managing billing for your enterprise."
Part 2: Organizing and managing your team
As an enterprise owner or administrator, you can manage settings on user, repository, team and organization levels. You can manage members of your enterprise, create and manage organizations, set policies for repository management, and create and manage teams.
1. Managing members of 您的 GitHub Enterprise Server 实例
You can manage settings and audit activity for the members of 您的 GitHub Enterprise Server 实例. You can promote an enterprise member to be a site administrator, manage dormant users, view the audit log for user activity, and customize messages that enterprise members will see. For more information, see "Managing users in your enterprise."
2. 创建组织
You can create new organizations in 您的 GitHub Enterprise Server 实例 to reflect your company or group's structure. 更多信息请参阅“从头开始创建新组织”。
3. Adding members to organizations
You can add members to organizations in 您的 GitHub Enterprise Server 实例 as long as you are an organization owner in the organizations you want to manage. You can also configure visibility of organization membership. For more information, see "Adding people to your organization" and "Configuring visibility for organization membership."
4. 创建团队
Teams are groups of organization members that can be granted permissions to specific repositories as a group. You can create individual teams or multiple levels of nested teams in each of your organizations. For more information, see "Creating teams" and "Adding people to teams."
5. Setting organization and repository permission levels
We recommend giving a limited number of members in each organization an organization owner role, which provides complete administrative access for that organization. 更多信息请参阅“组织的权限级别”。
For organizations where you have admin permissions, you can also customize access to each repository with granular permission levels. For more information, see "Repository permissions levels for an organization."
6. Enforcing repository management policies
As an enterprise owner, you can set repository management policies for all organizations in 您的 GitHub Enterprise Server 实例, or allow policies to be set separately in each organization. 更多信息请参阅“在企业中实施仓库管理策略”。
Part 3: Building securely
To increase the security of 您的 GitHub Enterprise Server 实例, you can configure authentication for enterprise members, use tools and audit logging to stay in compliance, configure security and analysis features for your organizations, and optionally enable GitHub Advanced Security.
1. Authenticating enterprise members
You can use GitHub Enterprise Server's built-in authentication method, or you can choose between an established authentication provider, such as CAS, LDAP, or SAML, to integrate your existing accounts and centrally manage user access to 您的 GitHub Enterprise Server 实例. For more information, see "Authenticating users for 您的 GitHub Enterprise Server 实例."
You can also require two-factor authentication for each of your organizations. For more information, see "Requiring two factor authentication for an organization."
2. Staying in compliance
You can implement required status checks and commit verifications to enforce your organization's compliance standards and automate compliance workflows. You can also use the audit log for your organization to review actions performed by your team. For more information, see "Enforcing policy with pre-receive hooks" and "Audit logging."
3. Enabling GitHub Advanced Security features
You can upgrade your GitHub Enterprise Server license to include GitHub Advanced Security. This provides extra features that help users find and fix security problems in their code, such as code and secret scanning. For more information, see "GitHub Advanced Security for your enterprise."
