[THIN] Re: 2 Access Gateways different default logon points?

Hi Steve,

 

So in the example (please see my response to Jamie) I had 4 CAGS and 4 AAC Servers all belonging to the same AAC farm. However 2 CAGS were internet facing and 2 were Extranet facing (business 2 business and therefore semi trusted) the extranet facing CAG’s hosted the single factor logon point and it was never  deployed to the Internet facing CAG’s. It would be exactly the same if you has 2 CAG’s to 1 AAC Server.

 

 

Thanks PeterD

Peter,

 

Are you saying in this case that both CAGs will point to the same AAC server but that the landing page will re-direct them selectively to a new landing page based on the MAC address of that CAG? That is slick!!

Hi,

Simply  put you can’t segregate the CAGs within AAC they will be treated as a single entity. Also if both the CAGs are using different FQDNS (likely) then that can cause issues with the Secure Access Client.

 

However all said and done I have had to make this work for a larger customer in the past. The way around it is to add some code to the basepage.aspx to detect the mac address of the CAG i.e the one you may want the logon point to be displayed upon.

There are other potentials ways that this could be achieved by say third party load balances or even NetScaler.

 

If you want the code for basepage.aspx let me know.

 

The reason this was implemented was to allow internet facing logon point RSA 2 Factor internal Logon point Single Factor.

 

 

Thanks Peter

Greetings again all you fabulous list legends!
 
Quick one hopefully!?
 
I have 2 Gateway Devices both pointing to the same AAC server.
 
I want to have 1 gateway device support LDAP and RSA (its available externally)
I want the other to have just LDAP (its only available internally)
 
From what I can tell the advanced authentication methods can only be setup per logon point, however I cant find a way to have 2 different CAGS point to different default logon points (under the same AAC server)
 
Am I missing something really simple?
 
Cheers and best wishes
James
