Installing Relay Server

Relay server is a server, at which Relay service is deployed. Relay service enables the user to establish a connection between a mobile device and mobile platform server on heightened requirements to protection of internal corporate network data. In this case DMZ ports into internal network are closed, only ports from internal network into external network are opened.

NOTE. To provide correct work, mobile platform server and Relay server version must match. When Relay server is used, interaction between mobile client and mobile platform server is slowed down.

To install Relay server:

  1. Install Docker components.

  2. Place configuration files from the archive compose_files_v19.03.06_65.zip at mobile platform server:

NOTE. To get configuration files, contact technical support by sending a request to support@fsight.ru or technical support services that are available after registration at the website.

  1. Place platform images next to files for server installation.

  2. Enter the server console using the account with appropriate permissions.

  3. Import Docker images to the local repository by executing the command for each archive in the folder:

% docker load -i <archive_name>.tar

After successful import delete the archives.

  1. Make sure that startup files are located in the current directory, and execute the command:

# For selected installation
% docker-compose -f docker-compose.relay.yml up

After the operations are executed, the Relay server is installed. To use the Relay server, select the Use Relay Server checkbox in security settings. Requests between mobile client and mobile platform server are executed via the Relay server.

To update the Relay server, see the Updating Foresight Mobile Platform section.
