Figure 35-13. Gateway Settings .. Proxy Map Window Settings tab
The Ranger Gateway provides the Proxy Map service to assist in processing proxy requests. When
multiple ZoneRangers are joined to a Ranger Gateway, or when the use of address translation (NAT)
is in effect, the Proxy Map service determines which ZoneRanger should service the incoming
request.
When Resolve Host Names is checked, the Proxy Map service will resolve hostnames in the proxy
requests to IP addresses prior to searching for matching configuration rules. If disabled, the Proxy
Map service will search for configuration rules which match the specified hostname.
When Allow Unconfigured Routes is checked, in the absence of a configured route for a given
destination address, the Proxy Map service will simply select any joined ZoneRanger to proxy the
request. If this option is disabled, the Proxy Map service will only select ZoneRangers to handle
proxy requests based on configured rules. If no matching rule is found for a given proxy request,
that request will fail.
When Balance ZoneRanger Selection is checked, the Proxy Map service will attempt to balance
proxy requests which can be serviced by multiple ZoneRangers across those ZoneRangers over
time. If disabled, proxy requests will be sent to the ZoneRanger that most recently responded to this
Ranger Gateway (i.e. the ZoneRanger from which the Ranger Gateway has most recently observed
evidence of healthy activity).
Route List Cache Size is the number of Proxy Map routing rules cached by the Proxy Map service.
The default is 1000 entries with a valid range of 0 – 10000.
