HIS 2004 Over a WAN |
|
|
We are ready to deploy an ASP.NET application that utitlizes Host
Integration Server 2004, but we are now being asked to deploy it with
the HIS server located at a remote site, over a WAN link with firewalls
on each end. I'm not even sure how to approach this. Does anyone have
any experience doing this?
The connection between the client (ASP.Net application on IIS) and the
HIS server should be a secure (encrypted) connection. Does HIS support
any method for doing this? What ports will be required for the
firewalls to allow access? How do we authenticate the client to the
HIS server (IIS will be in a domain, but HIS will be a standalone or
member of another domain - there will be no domain trusts)?
Also, I have used file sharing to create references for the ASP.Net
application to the HIS proxies for our components. How do I re-direct
or modify the references to the remote proxy (file sharing will not be
allowed, of course), or is there a way to use late-binding to the
proxy?
Any hints or comments appreciated. |

Just let tcp 1477 and 1478 flow from the HIS client(s) to the HIS server(s)

If there is no trust then the default NT level encryption that HIS supports
won't work. If trusts really aren't an option then you could fall back on an
IPSEC policy to provide end to end encryption at the o/s level between client
and server.

No idea on this one I'm afraid...

How does the ASP.NET application communicate with HIS? If it can be
configured to communicate via TN3270 then I would think you can just open up
telnet access. We have a scenario similar to this where the IIS server
communicate via Tn3270 to a TN Pool on the HIS server and it works fine.

If the ASP.NET application (client) is referencing a TI Object then you can
put the TI object in a Secured IIS Virtual Directory and get https.
