Creating a Port Forwarder
The Port Forwarder API is a collection of functions used to provide
applications with the ability to send traffic through a previously defined
port forwarder link. For instructions on how to configure a port forwarder
link on the NVG Portal, see the chapter "Group Links" in the Application
Guide for VPN.
To be able to use the Port Forwarder API, two URLs are needed:
•
•
Copyright © 2007-2008 Nortel Networks
.
URL for the Portal login (called loginUrl in the following examples)
Example: http://vpn.example.com/login_post.yaws?user=
test&password=test&authmethod=default&url=
The parameters are the same as if accessing the Portal through a web
browser.
URL for the actual port forwarder (called portForwarderUrl in the
following examples)
Example: http://vpn.example.com/link.yaws?t=custom&a=
1&b=1&c=1
The parameters a, b and c in the second link point out the link
according to:
a: VPN number
Nortel VPN Gateway
