Configuring the RHA NAT Utility for Various Network Setups › Example 2: Masters are behind a Closed Firewall that uses a Proxy Server

Example 2: Masters are behind a Closed Firewall that uses a Proxy Server

This example is similar to Example 1, the only difference is that there is an additional proxy server at Site 1. The following description explains the network setup.

• Masters are in a private LAN network that is behind a firewall (Firewall 1) without any port forwarding.
• Firewall 1 is connected to a proxy server (155.35.76.123).
• Hosts in LAN 1 can access the public WAN through Firewall 1.
• The Control Service and the replica are in a LAN network that is behind a firewall (Firewall2) with the port forwarding enabled.
• Hosts in LAN 2 can access the public WAN through Firewall 2. The following port forwarding is configured for Firewall 2.
  • Port 24000 is forwarded to the Control Service host.
  • Port 25000 is forwarded to the appliance.
• Both these private LAN networks are connected through a public WAN.

The following diagram illustrates the network setup.

This example is similar to Example 1. You only need to perform the following additional steps.

   • HTTP Server: 155.35.76.123
   • Port: 80
   • User name: <domain\username>
   • Password: <password>

   

2. While you create the Full System scenario, specify the following host properties in the Master and Replica Properties screen.
   • Set the HTTP Proxy Server Configuration to ON.
