Installation components

Top  Previous  Next

JSCAPE MFT Gateway consists of two installable components which are JSCAPE MFT Gateway Server and JSCAPE MFT Gateway Agent.  These components are described in more detail below.

 

JSCAPE MFT Gateway Server

 

This component is required and is typically installed on one or more servers in the DMZ in order to provide reverse proxy and clustering services.

 

JSCAPE MFT Gateway Agent

 

This component is optional and is typically installed on one or more servers within your internal network.  It is generally not installed on the same server where the JSCAPE MFT Gateway Server component is installed as this would defeat it's primary purpose.  It's primary purpose is to perform network requests on behalf of JSCAPE MFT Gateway Server.  While JSCAPE MFT Gateway Agent does establish an outbound connection to JSCAPE MFT Gateway Server via a control channel upon startup, no inbound connections are ever made from JSCAPE MFT Gateway Server to JSCAPE MFT Gateway Agent.  This is critical in environments where inbound connections to the internal network are restricted for security and/or compliance reasons.
