272 Using the Port Forwarder API
General
This appendix describes some of the tasks needed when using the Port
Forwarder API. The JavaDoc will give you a more detailed view of the API.
The Port Forwarder API is used to provide tunnels through the Nortel VPN
Gateway (NVG) without having to start any applets from the Portal. It can
be used by any type of Java application or applet.
The tunnel specifications are set by defining a port forwarder in the
CLI/BBI. It is then referred to when setting up the Port Forwarder API.
The API and Demo application are available from the Portal.
Example: https://vpn.example.com/nortel_cacheable/portfo
rwarder.zip
The zip file contains both a signed and an unsigned version of the API
along with javadoc documentation and a demo application with source
code.

forwarder API is used by an applet.
