Hello Colleagues
I need your inputs concerning the configuration of External / Internal access to a Portal system to keep the same URL so that it’s transparent for end users (internal or external).
The landscape is as follow: Internet Browser -> F5 LB -> Web Dispatcher -> EP NW73
The main issue is that when the EP system is accessed for internal user there is URL redirection to internal URL. So the URL is changed and the requirement is to avoid that.
It is likely due to EP system ‘ProxyMapping’ property that is used as the Portal is connected to several backends. Without it, the Portal doesn't respond with the correct URL.
If this property is removed, Portal iViews do not work properly and if proxymapping ‘override’ is changed to FALSE, we have the problem described in SAP Note 1643446.
Configuration of EP property:
ProxyMappings port=(Host:internal_url,Port:port,Scheme:https,Override:true)
And configuratíon in WebDispatcher:
Internal Scenario: wdisp/system_10 = SID=sid, MSHOST=internal_url, MSPORT=port, SRCSRV=*:port
External Scenario: wdisp/system_4 = SID=sid, MSHOST=external_url, MSPORT=port, SRCSRV=*:port
How can the URL redirection be avoided for Internal users so that the same URL is always kept ?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Best regards,
Johann
