      Prerequisites

      Sites Configuration in Safous Admin Portal

      1. Login to Safous Admin portal

        Each time you install an App Gateway on a new site or an existing site, it will be added automatically on this page. For a new site, a new entry on the sites list will be added. For an existing site, the App Gateway Count will increase. Below is the brief explanation about each field on the Sites page:

        • Name: Define the specific name of the site. The site's name is determined during the installation of an App Gateway. If a specific name is not assigned to a site upon installing an App Gateway, it will default to the 'Default' site.
        • CIDR: The IP segment in use for this site. The CIDR represents the IP segments that are accessible on this site, which will be utilized when an agent-based user accesses the application on this site. By default, it is not configured.
        • DNS Suffixes: The internal DNS that is used by your application in this site. It is crucial to define the DNS suffixes as it is used for agent-based users to resolve domain names within the environment. If the DNS suffixes are not defined, the agent-based users might be unable to resolve the domain. By default, it is not configured.
        • App Gateway Count: The number of App Gateway that has been assigned to this site. When the App Gateway Count is 2 or higher, it means that this site is set for the high availability option. If the App Gateway Count is 0, it means that this site is not connected to any App Gateway.
      3. After you have installed the application gateway, you can check the configuration of a site by clicking the + button. This will expand and display the information of the site, including the information of all installed App Gateway on that site.
      4. To configure the DNS suffixes and CIDR of the site, click the Edit button.
        • When utilizing the internal DNS within your environment, it's necessary to specify the DNS suffix under the "DNS Domains" setting. Additionally, the DNS Server must be defined in your App Gateway. This configuration is crucial for enabling agent-based users to resolve the internal DNS; without it, they will be unable to resolve the domain.
        • To access an application via the local IP, you must specify the CIDR in the "CIDR" field. Without this configuration, agent-based users will be unable to reach the desired application IP address.
      5. Once you are done, click on the Save button. Notification of successful edit will be shown on the page.
