Preparing for Connections Outside the Firewall

Relay server allows Mary to test RBS device clients in a development test environment. Mary will test device clients by using wireless connections to Unwired Server from outside of the firewall. Relay server enables these types of secure inbound server connections.

Jane has already installed relay server on a host that runs IIS and situated in DMZ. John registers and configures relay server and RSOEs in Sybase Control Center and exports the configuration files so this configuration can eventually be used in a production environment.
  1. Enabling Secure Device Connections by Deploying Relay Server
    John configures the relay server in Sybase Control Center to create two farms for a single development and test cluster: one for RBS client connections and one for MBS client connections. John sets up both farms now, even though RBS connections are initially tested.
  2. Setting Up the RSOE for Unwired Server RBS Services
    John uses Sybase Control Center to configure and start the RBS RSOEs for the development versions of Unwired Servers.
  3. Development Impact
    Upon completion of the setup and deployment of both the relay server and RSOE, Tom can develop RBS device applications that Mary uses to determine whether the connection is viable for a production environment.
