This article describes the administration service in Nexus Hybrid Access Gateway.
| Excerpt |
|---|
| Hybrid Access Gateway is a complete network of services, with the administration service as the natural connecting point, or hub. The administrator manages all administration and configuration of Hybrid Access Gateway on the administration service through the Hybrid Access Gateway administration interface. |
The administration service distributes your User accounts settings to the User storage and configuration changes to the Hybrid Access Gateway network: the access point, policy service, distribution service, and authentication service. You can only configure one administration service server per Hybrid Access Gateway network.
When initially setting up Hybrid Access Gateway through the Setup system wizard, the administration service by default listens to host 127.0.0.1 and port 8300 for communication within the Hybrid Access Gateway network. These default values can be changed.
The administration service must be set up with:
- Internal communication, that is, the communication between the administration service and the Hybrid Access Gateway network.
- External communication, that is, the communication between the administration clients and the administration service.
