Reverse proxy server on top of load balancer

Hi ,
I have seen some customers with setup including Reverse Proxy Server on top of Load balancer with SSL accelerator configured with oracle apps 11i , my query is what is the use of configuring Reverse proxy server on top of Load balancer as load balancer can act as reverse proxy.
Thanks,
Puneeth

  • How to configure SharePoint HNSC with a reverse proxy server so that HNSC Share Point URLs are not exposed to end users.

    Could you please let me know how SharePoint HNSC can be configured with a reverse proxy server so that HNSC Share Point URLs are not exposed to end users.
    In normal path based site collections/web applications, reverse proxy configuration can be done using alternate access mappings with  Public URL = "proxy URL", internal = "HNSC Share Point URL" so that share point sends response back
    to Public URL = "proxy URL".
    In Host Named Site Collections,  alternate access mappings  are not supported. Each HNSC is designed to have only one URL in each zone. Zone is one of the five zones(Default,Intranet,Internet,Custom,Extranet) with each of which only one alternate
    URL is associated.  This is what we are able to get using power shell command "Set-SPSiteUrl", but this will not help us to get the response back to proxy URL after a request sent to share point because we could not find any mechanism in share
    point HNSC to respond  to a different URL(proxy URL). Consequently, Share Point URLs are exposed to  external users.
    Below share point article in MSDN blog is symmetrical to what we are observing with Share Point 2013 and Proxy Server. It mentions that internal HNSC URLs can’t be hidden using any proxy server. If  hiding the internal Share Point URLS is a requirement,
    it suggests to use a web application instead of host named site collections.
    Though I’m also observing the same behavior with Share Point 2013 HNSC, Could you please confirm my understanding is correct.
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/kaevans/archive/2012/03/27/what-every-sharepoint-admin-needs-to-know-about-host-named-site-collections.aspx
    Excerpt from above article-
    "Host Named Site Collections Only Use One Host Name
    Continuing on the discussion on AAMs and host named site collections, you cannot use multiple host names to address a site collection in SharePoint 2010. Because host-named site collections have a single URL, they do not support alternate access mappings and
    are always considered to be in the Default zone.  This is important if you are using a reverse proxy to provide access to external users. Products like Unified Access Gateway 2010 allow external users to authenticate to your gateway and access a site
    as http://uag.sharepoint.com and forward the call to http://portal.sharepoint.com. Remember that URL rewriting is not permitted. Further, a site collection can only respond to one host name. This means if you are using a reverse proxy, it must forward the
    calls to the same URL.  If your networking team has a policy against exposing internal URLs externally, you must instead use web applications and extend the web application using an alternate access mapping."<u5:p></u5:p>

    Hi Satish,
    You are right that only one URL is allowed for each zone of the host-name site collections in both SharePoint 2010 and SharePoint 2013.
    It is by design that each host-name site collection only support one URL for each zone.
    The article below is about RTM version of SharePoint, and it is the same for SharePoint 2013 with the latest CU.
    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2826457
    So to make the URL of HNSC not exposed to external users is not supported, you need to use path-based sites instead.
    Best regards.

  • Moving SMTP server to Azure with Load balancer

    How to
     move SMTP server to Azure with Load balancer???

    Hi TechM,
    Base on my experience, Windows Azure Platform does not provide out-of-the-box mail server (neither SMTP nor POP3). You could use SendGrid to sent mail. About this issue, I recommend you could refer to

  • HTTP tunneling and reverse proxy server

    We're currently using Windows Media Services (WMS) to stream
    video on our website. There is an option WMS to use the HTTP
    protocol and to specify the port you'd like to use. This has
    allowed us to stream video through our external firewall, through
    our reverse proxy server, and through our internal firewall to our
    media server. I've been trying for two days now to get Flash Media
    Server (FMS) to do the same thing. For some reason the HTTP
    tunneling (RTMPT) protocol doesn't appear to be acting like the
    HTTP protocol that WMS is using. Anyone have some tips on this
    configuration. I've scoured web resources and documentation as best
    I could. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    To give a better picture, here's a more complete description of set up and goals
    Static IP hits external interface of ASA. ASA has a static nat rule to forward it to my DMZ server.
    DMZ server is running IIS 8. Here are what some of the sites look like.
    jira.xxxxx.com -> 10.1.10.21 (ubuntu server) | port 80
    email.xxxxx.com - > 10.1.10.16 (domain joined server 2012) port 80, 443
    media.xxxxx.com -> 10.1.10.14 (domain joined server 2012) port 80, 443
    other stuff like this -> 10.1.10.x port 80 or others
    All of the A records for those domain names point to the static which routes to the ASA and then is NAT'd to the DMZ server. 
    What do I need to do in IIS to have those sites get directed to the proper internal locations?
    Thanks!!

  • Reverse proxy server CMS certificate verification

    The solution for this problema was put the proxy server name and IP in the database hosts.
    In Oracle portal it's essencial that database could resolve the name of all componentes, like portal mid-tier, web cache, sso, proxy server, etc.

  • Using WLS 8.1 as a Reverse Proxy Server as well as using SSL

    Hi,
    We have WebLogic server 8.1 installed and set-up as a Reverse Proxy Server. We would like it to serve pages over a secure internet connection (one way).
    I have imported the SSL certificate which I received from Thawte. I have also configured the identity and Trust keystores for the server.
    However, I am still unable to access the server over a secure connection.
    I have logged into WebLogic Console and unticked Listen Port Enabled Port: 80; and ticked SSL Port Enabled and changed it to listen on Port:80? However, all this will mean is all our url's will need to preceded by 'https' I would prefer us to be able to still use 'http' which when requested redirects to 'https'
    Not having been on any WebLogic courses, I am new to this and would appreciate any help or step by step guides people have.
    Many Thanks,
    Karl

    Hi Raphael Chasse,
    The LoadBalancer plugin can be used as a reverse proxy.
    you could configure the loadbalancer.xml as below, where requests for app1 get redirected to server1 and app2 to server2.
    <loadbalancer>
    <cluster name="cluster1">
    <instance disable-timeout-in-minutes="30" enabled="true" listeners="http://server1 name="i1"/>
    <web-module context-root="/app1" disable-timeout-in-minutes="30" enabled="true"/>
    <health-checker interval-in-seconds="1" timeout-in-seconds="60" url="/"/>
    </cluster>
    <cluster name="cluster2">
    <instance disable-timeout-in-minutes="30" enabled="true" listeners="http://server2 name="i2"/>
    <web-module context-root="/app2" disable-timeout-in-minutes="30" enabled="true"/>
    <health-checker interval-in-seconds="1" timeout-in-seconds="60" url="/"/>
    </cluster>
    </loadbalancer>

  • How to setup CSS as reverse proxy server without cache server

    Hi, question regarding CSS capabilities.
    Is there a way to setup CSS (11000 series or 11500) to act as a reverse proxy server without caching server in place? Or is it possible for CSS to cache contents on its own?
    And what is disk space on CSS used for?
    Thank you.

    Thank you for clarification on disk usage on CSS. I have gone through sample config for reverse proxy caching
    http://www.cisco.com/warp/customer/117/CSS_CEreverseproxy.html
    Does this mean only way to have CSS to do reverse proxying is to have cache engine in conjunction with CSS?
    Thank you again in advance.

  • DNS Resolution - Reverse Proxy Server

    Hi,
    I am deploying Reverse Proxy Server using ARR for publishing Lync 2013. I have added following servers in server farms:-
    1. dialin.domain.com
    2. meet.domain.com
    3. lyncdiscover.domain.com
    4. lyncweb.domain.com
    5. wacsrv.domain.com (office web apps server)
    I am confused over the following:-
    1. My internal domain is .local, i.e. my front end server is fes.domain.local. In this case, how my reverse proxy server will resolve my internal server names? do I need to add static mapping using host file?
    2. Will dialin, meet, lyncdiscover, lyncweb point to Front End Server?

    Yes, you will use a host file or DNS zone on the internal DNS server (split DNS) to resolve the IP of the Front End from your IIS ARR box.
    You will point dialin, meet, lyncdiscover to the front end server.
    On the Front End server in topology builder override the External FQDN on the Lync Web Services to use the external name. (most likely lyncweb.domain.com or whatever you choose)

    Hi All,
    We wanted to configure reverse proxy in our landscape, I will explain how we have through of implementing it.
    The request over the internet will be recieved by Our EP Server AAA which will act as a reverse proxy server and the request will be mapped to the Production EP server BBB which will serve the request.
    I have found few links on the internet explaining the concept of DMZ but still I dont have much clear Idea about this.
    If anyone can share any relevant link on, how this can be implemented will be really great.

  • Reverse Proxy Server

    I would like to know whether your Sun Java System Web server (used as a reverse proxy) has scripting option so that it would redirect requests to a web server which is down due to some reason to another backup web server.

    If the primary origin server and backup origin server serve the same content, the load balancing functionality introduced in Proxy 4.0 may do what you want.
    If you configure multiple origin servers for a route, Proxy will distribute load among them. If one of the origin servers goes offline, Proxy will log a message to its errors log and stop sending requests to that origin server. Proxy will periodically check the origin server and resume routing requests to it when it comes back online.
    You can configure this using the admin GUI or using the set-origin-server Route SAF in the obj.conf configuration file.
    If the backup origin server doesn't mirror all the content of the primary origin server but exists only to serve up customized errors pages, you may instead want to configure Proxy to serve that content by customizing Proxy's 502 Bad Gateway and 504 Gateway Timeout error pages.
