Redirect external user (internet) & internal user (intranet)

[Former Member]

Hi, we are developing a public portal services in which we have two kind of user: a) public user that access through internet to the portal. b) internal user that access inside a domain to the portal.

We want to know How we can know which is the external and which is the internal in order to assign a portal desktop.

I have seen in the forms the following options:

1.-> IISPROXY

2.-> SPNEGO

3.-> APACHE & SAPDISPATCHER

1.-> It seems that we the last release of the portal is obsolete

2.-> It seems that SPNEGO is for internal use only (intranet).

3.-> I have not documentation about.

I would be very grateful if someone give a solution and documentation or links about it.

Thanks in advanced.

Regards.

Optima,

If you are not deploying KM to the external users, you can alternatively look into external facing portals.

Go to More Information on

And check out SAP Note 877188 -- the central note for External Facing Portal -- for additional information.

Optima,

Usually external access is made through https so by checking the access protocol, you will get to know where the request is coming from.

Another possibility is if you have a different user base for internal and external access, you can place them in different groups and then based upon the group you can decide whether its an internal or external request.

Hi Optima,

You can use a appIntegrator to distinguish intranet/ extranet users..

Have a look at "HowToUseAppIntegrator_en.pdf" from service market place.

This weblog should give you some idea about appintegrator:
