Configure Remote Proxy Domain List

The Web Proxy component of remote proxy services provides a secure interface between applications on the LAN and clients on the Internet. An example of a client is the web collaboration client of MiCollab Audio, Web and Video Conferencing.

Use the following procedure to add the WAN-side host name of the LAN server you wish to proxy and configure access to its client and administrative interfaces.

The instructions assume that an external DNS server resolves your WAN-side host name (for example, “MAS1.mitel.com”) to the corporate firewall which, in turn, sends HTTP requests to the Web Proxy server. It is also assumed that MSL is configured to use an internal DNS server which resolves the LAN-side host name (also “MAS1.mitel.com”) to the actual server on the LAN.

For more information about the Web Proxy and its uses, see the MBG Installation and Maintenance Guide.

Note:
  • To be proxied successfully, remote users must enter a valid URL for the resource they are attempting to access. Refer to the Supported Applications tab to determine the correct format for administrative and end-user URLs.
  • Effective MBG Release 7.1, the Web Proxy is included as a component of Remote Proxy Services and is licensed as part of the MBG base bundle. Upgrades from earlier releases are covered under Software Assurance.
  • The Web Proxy relies on the fully qualified domain name in the HTTP request to map that request to the appropriate LAN server. Access via IP address is not supported.
