Configuring HTML Redirector

About this task

Use this procedure to set the host address and port number for the HTML Redirector.

The HTML Redirector redirects the launch requests for HTML applications. Avaya Experience Portal stores the Redirector configuration in the database as a global CAV. Avaya Orchestration Designer runtime gets the host address of the configured Redirector from the global CAVs retrieved from the EPM. Orchestration Designer uses the configured information and the HTML application name to generate a URL to launch an HTML5 application through the Redirector.

The Redirector servlet hosts a generic URL that is the initial point of contact in launching an Orchestration Designer HTML5 application. The Redirectorservlet acts as a wrapper around the web service to provide a layer of security by isolating the EPM servers and hiding any sensitive launch configuration such as application internal IP addresses, confidential parameters, and CAVs, from direct exposure to the external browser.

Procedure

  1. Log on to the EPM web interface.
  2. In the EPM navigation pane, click Multi-Media Configuration > HTML.

    The EPM web interface displays the HTML Redirectors page.

  3. In the Transport Protocol field, click one of the following transport protocols for sending requests to the Redirector:
    • TCP

    • TLS

  4. In the Host address field, enter the host address of the Redirector.
    noteNote:

    The EPM system is installed with a default zone. Therefore, the HTML Redirector page initially displays the host address and port number only for the default zone. However, when an administrator configures zones in Experience Portal, the HTML Redirector page displays a host address and port number for all configured zones.

    You must configure a redirector for each zone that hosts HTML applications.

  5. In the Port field, enter the port number for the Redirector.
  6. In the Path field, enter the path of the URL for communicating with the Redirector.

    The path appears after the host address and the port. For example, http://hostaddress:port/path.

  7. Click Apply.
