Question

How to Configure Microsoft IIS as Reverse Proxy for UCMDB Server connection and usage.

Answer

  1. Prerequisites:

    Before downloading and installing ARR, make sure that you have already installed Internet Information Services (IIS).

  2. Install ARR from the following URL using the Microsoft Web Platform Installer:

    http://www.iis.net/downloads/microsoft/application-request-routing

    Once installed, the Server Farms item should be present in the Connections tree inside the IIS Manager.

  3. Right-click Server Farms and select Create Server Farm….

    Specify Server Farm name (make sure the Online checkbox is checked) and click Next.

  4. Enter the address of the UCMDB browser together with the port on which the browser can be accessed, and then click the Add button. (The port can be entered in the Advanced settings….)

  5. After IIS knows which is the server behind, it is necessary to create a simple URL rewriting rule. When prompted for that, select Yes.
