apache reverse proxy to bes server
Hello,
I hope that someone here can assist me with this problem because I am currently trying to fix this problem for 3 weeks now and can’t seem to get it working. tried the suggestion of many many forums and blogs but can't seem find solution for me. Well let’s start with explaining my situation. Environment(learning): Code:
-1 Public IP Code:
SomeWebsite:80 (internet <---> server2) For testing purpose I am configuring a blackberry enterprise server(bes) on server3. It’s a clean installation with only the needed applications to run a bes. Because I only have 1 public ip I am trying to reverse proxy this webservice like i manged to configure for server1. The bes webservice is configured to accept connections on port 443. So my first web.conf setup was similar to the setup I used for server1 but I noticed that the webpage was displayed but I couldn’t interact with the page because it is a java application. So digging deeper into this i found that the webpage that bes provided me to use isn’t the real application but more like a iframe/redirect page. Code:
Example: Code:
Example: https://bes.server3.com/webconsole/app;jsessionid=2C10DDA521DB8408479AAD8F34255C7F? component=login.goToChangeLanguagePageLink&consoleSId=&page=Login&service=direct&session=T Code:
<VirtualHost *:80> The server i am working on is used for testing the BES before we buy the software, servers, etc. i am not able to connect the bes server on a other public IP. its for me very important that the reverse proxy works. i think that i am not the only one using this kind of setup because of the security improvement when your not exposing your real server to the outside. I hope with posting my own situation I have more chance to find a answer/suggestion that will work for me. |
Re: apache reverse proxy to bes server
I have some experience regarding revers proxying with apache. From what I learned there it is not easy to do this, and if the server behind the reverse proxy hehaves not 100% compliant it might even be impossible.
Wouldnt it be easier to access the management console using a VPN ? Either your Router could have a built in VPN server or you could use the Windows built in VPN. I also do not recommend to expose the webconsole (regardles if there is a reverse proxy in front of it or not) to the general public. |
