Click Devices > Access Gateways > Edit > Reverse Proxy / Authentication.
In the Reverse Proxy List, click New, specify a display name for the reverse proxy, then click OK.
Enable a listening address.
Cluster Member: (Available only if Access Gateway is a member of a cluster.) Select the server you want to configure from the list of servers. The Listening Address(es) and TCP Listen Options modifications apply to the selected server. Modifications made to any other options on the page apply to all servers in the cluster.
Listening Address(es): Displays a list of available IP addresses. If the server has only one IP address, only one is displayed and it is automatically selected. If the server has multiple addresses, you can select one or more IP addresses to enable. You must enable at least one address by selecting its check box.
If Access Gateway is in a cluster, you must select a listening address for each cluster member.
TCP Listen Options: Provides options for configuring how requests are handled between the reverse proxy and the client browsers. You cannot set up the listening options until you create and configure a proxy service. For information about these options, see Configuring TCP Listen Options for Clients.
Configure the listening ports:
Non-Secure Port: Specifies the port on which to listen for HTTP requests; the default port for HTTP is 80. Depending upon your configuration, this port might also handle other tasks. These tasks are listed to the right of the text box.
Secure Port: Specifies the port on which to listen for HTTPS requests; the default port for HTTPS is 443. For information about the SSL options, see Enabling SSL Communication.
In the Proxy Service List section, click New.
The first proxy service of a reverse proxy is considered the master (or parent) proxy. Subsequent proxy services can use domain-based, path-based, or virtual multi-homing, relative to the published DNS name of the master proxy service. If you are creating a second proxy service for a reverse proxy, see Using Multi-Homing to Access Multiple Resources.
Specify the following details:
Proxy Service Name: Specify a display name for the proxy service, which Administration Console uses for its interfaces.
Published DNS Name: Specify the DNS name you want the public to use to access your site. This DNS name must resolve to the IP address you set up as the listening address.
Web Server IP Address: Specify the IP address of the web server you want this proxy service to manage. You can specify additional web server IP addresses by clicking the Web Server Addresses link when you have finished creating the proxy service.
Host Header: Specify whether the HTTP header must contain the name of the back-end web server (Web Server Host Name option) or whether the HTTP header must contain the published DNS name (the Forward Received Host Name option).
Web Server Host Name: Specify the DNS name of the web server that Access Gateway must forward to the web server. If you have set up a DNS name for the web server and it requires its DNS name in the HTTP header, specify that name in this field. If the web server has absolute links referencing its DNS name, include this name in this field. If you selected Forward Received Host Name, this option is not available.
NOTE:For iChain administrators, the Web Server Host Name is the alternate hostname when configuring a web server accelerator.
Click OK.
