The Remote Gateway Servers configuration is used by the server to authenticate new user requests from a Gateway Server and to configure Remote Gateway API Keys when invoking Gateway RESTful Web Services.
These gateway configurations contain information relating to client Gateway Server systems. The configured attributes are used for both authenticating incoming requests from the client system, and making REST calls from this system to the client system using Gateway Server RESTful Web Services.
Authentication of client Gateway Server users must be enabled, and this is configured on the User Authentication page using the Use Gateway option.
The Remote Gateway Server configuration has two sections:
· Client Gateway Server Configuration
· Client Gateway Server IP Whitelist
This IP Whitelist is optional and can be used to authorize an incoming request from a client Gateway Server. Usually this entry will be the external facing IP address of the Gateway Server.
Each IP address line can be specified as either:
IPv4 examples:
127.0.0.1
123.456.789.123
192.*
213.567.123.*
192.168.0.1|192.168.0.10
IPV6 examples:
ffff:0:0:0:0:0:0:23
ffee:222:*
ffff:0:0:0:0:0:0:0|ffff:0:0:0:0:0:0:10
