Configuring a VTS Internet Server

In order to enable a VTS/IS to allow access to its applications, there are a number of basic configuration operations that must be performed:

•    If SSL connections between the VTS/IS and VICs are to be used, an SSL certificate must be obtained and installed on the VTS/IS. For networks that allow general internet access to the server computer, SSL is highly recommended.

•    Valid user accounts must be established in each standard VTS application for those users wishing to access them remotely via a VIC. These user accounts must have the "Internet Client Access" privilege granted to them.

•    One or more "realms" must be established on the VTS/IS that are comprised of applications to which you wish users to have access. (VTS applications that are not assigned to a realm will not be remotely accessible); and

•    One or more VTS Internet Servers must be configured with appropriate port settings and redundant operation parameters.

•    [Optional] You might wish to add a Realm Display Setup tag to an application to configure the level of control over the display parameters that is to be granted to VIC users.
