sap web dispatcher configuration

[Former Member]

Dear experts! Could you please suggest me if solution exists. I've installed and configured sapweb dispatcher on the server in DMZ. I received SSL certificate and everything works fine. I can connect through internet to my PRD server. I have port 443 (https) opened in the server with web dispatcher. But I want to connect to DEV,QAS,SolMan servers the same way. Can I do this? I have only one external server name https://xxxx.domain.com. I am able to configure another pfl files and start sap web dispatcher with different pfl. But how can I direct to them if I have one server name and one port (443)? Is it possible?

Hi,

You can install one web dispatcher per back office system, each web disptacher listening on its own port.

OR

You can install one single SAP Web disptacher 7.2 which is able to connect to several back office systems.

Several techniques are possible to choose the back office system : DNS aliases, IP adresess or URL prefixes.

Check the documentation on help.sap.com for Netweaver CE 7.2

Hi Marina, iam not sure if there is something possible like a virtual host configurtation with sapwdp.

We use a Hardware Loadbalancer for this issue:

virtual host on HWLB prd.domain.com 443 --> sapwdp.domain.com 8000

virtual host on HWLB qrd.domain.com 443 --> sapwdp.domain.com 8001

etc.

This work fine
