Proxy server for corporate clients
The proxy server has been implemented to prevent clients (PCs with ASTER installed) from accessing unwanted hosts on the corporate network (LAN). Essentially, it acts as a filter, allowing requests only to certain hosts and rejecting all others. The allowed hosts are the ASTER licensing servers.
The proxy receives a request from the PC with ASTER installed via the local area network (LAN), forwards it to the requested licensing server, receives the response via the internet, and then returns it to the originator of the request via the LAN:
The Proxy Delivery Package includes the Proxy Server Program and the Control and Configuration Program (“Configurator,” for short) into one distribution.
