Port Translation (Standard 80 - Non 4468 )

[Edridgee13]

Hi Guys

I would like some advise/ideas on the best solution for the below.

I have a application server which uses non standard HTTP/HTTPS ports.

What I want is a solution to translate these ports to standard ports.

Client 1 accesses the site on port 80 – from a gateway or something similar – the gateway accesses the application server on port 4466 etc and presents the site to the client on port 80.

I have various application servers which use non standard ports and want to create a central solution so that all three of my clients will not have to make any changes to the firewall/ proxy servers as to them they will be accessing the site on a standard port 80.

Any advise much appreciated.

Many thanks

Ed,

What load balancer do you have?

If you have an ACE then you can do something like this:

serverfarm host ssl

  rserver server1 4468

    inservice

  rserver server2 4468

    inservice

Can you paste your config to see how you got it configured?

Hi Jorge

Thanks for the prompt response

I havent purchase the kit yet as i wanted to make sure what i want to do is feasible

and also which is the best solution for me.

I belive  Port Redirection (Forwarding) is the best solution for my ports issue.

In terms of load balenceing which i will need for this would you reccomned a Cisco ASA.

Do you think this will meet my required needs

Many thanks

Ed,

OK, if that's the case then it will be better if you contact your Cisco Se/Sales or Partner to provide me a better feedback based on your needs, network and requirements. A deep analysis should be required before suggesting anything.
