Running ACSLS Behind a Firewall
This Firewall-Secure solution provides the following benefits:
-
Enables ACSLS to run behind a firewall (that is, ACSLS on the secure side of firewall, client on opposite side).
-
Enables ACSLS client(s) to run behind their own firewall(s) (that is, client(s) on secure side, ACSLS on the opposite side of firewall).
Note:
The ISV must have implemented the supplied changes within their client-side software component. -
Preserves compatibility with current ACSLS client implementations, allowing those clients to continue to run with ACSLS in the firewall solution.
-
Preserves current ACSAPI/Client functionality and performance. This includes all functionality that is available in a non-firewall environment.
A complete solution would include combining the first two capabilities above. This enables ACSLS and the ACSLS client(s) to each run behind their own respective firewalls (that is, two firewalls between ACSLS and the client(s)), and still have the same communications performance as within a non-firewall environment.
