View configuring HTML Redirector page field description

About this task

The HTML Redirector redirects 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 configured redirector host address 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 redirector servlet 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.

You can set the host address and port number for the Redirector.

Procedure

  1. Log on to the EPM web interface.
  2. In the EPM main menu, click Multi-Media configuration > HTML.

    The system displays the HTML Redirectors page.

  3. Enter the host address and port number for the Redirector.
    noteNote:

    The EPM system is installed with a default zone. Therefore, initially the HTML Redirector page displays only one host address and port that you can configure. However, when an administrator configures zones in Experience Portal, the HTML Redirector page displays a host address and port for each zone that you can configure.

    A redirector needs to be configured for each zone that hosts HTML applications.

  4. In the Transport Protocol field, select the Transport Protocol to send a request to the redirector.

    Select either TCP or TLS.

  5. Enter the path of the URL to be used for communicating with the redirector in the Path field.

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

  6. Click Apply.

    The system saves the configuration.
