DMZ security involves controlling Internet traffic to private networks by installing a Relay Server between your inner and outer firewalls.
The outer firewall has HTTP and HTTPS ports open to allow client Internet traffic to reach the Relay Server.
Relay Server as Firewall Protection
The Relay Server is a pair of Web server plug-ins, which you can install in an Internet Information Service (IIS) server on Windows or the Apache Web server on Linux.
RSOE as the Unwired Server Protection
One RSOE process is installed in each Unwired Server cluster member, in front of each synchronization subcomponent that communicates with a client. Replication services components and messaging services components both use RSOEs attached to their communication ports.
Relay Server and RSOE Communication Security
The RSOE runs on the same computer as an Unwired Server and is configured with the address of a Relay Server (the inner firewall is open to outgoing traffic, but not incoming traffic).
