 {{<note>}}By default, NGINX Gateway Fabric is installed in the **nginx-gateway** namespace. You can deploy in another namespace by modifying the manifest files.{{</note>}}
 
+{{<note>}}If you are deploying NGINX Gateway Fabric on OpenShift, we've supplied a baseline [SecurityContextConstraints](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nginxinc/nginx-gateway-fabric/v1.2.0/deploy/manifests/scc.yaml) manifest that you can download, modify if needed, and apply. You will also need to make sure the SecurityContextConstraints resource is added to the ClusterRole RBAC:
