Web Portal configuration
The process of setting up a Web Portal consists of the following overall steps.
- Define a Web Portal Server element.
- If providing the Web Portal over HTTPS, generate a certificate for the server.
- Allow the necessary connections in the Firewall Access rules.
- Install the Web Portal Server. See the Forcepoint Next Generation Firewall Installation Guide for instructions.
- We recommend placing the Web Portal Server in a DMZ network if you offer access to external users.
- You must generate and install a license for the Web Portal Server.
- Create Web Portal User accounts for the end users.
- The number of Web Portal users you can configure is limited by license. You must generate and install a separate license for the Web Portal Users.
- Management Client administrator accounts are also valid in the Web Portal.
- (Optional) Make installation-specific changes to your portal.
