Some reasons for wanting to use this type of configuration include:
Enabling WebAccess users on an intranet to access GroupWise through an internal Web server
and WebAccess users on the Internet to access GroupWise through an exposed Web server.
Increasing Web server performance by balancing the workload among several Web servers,
especially if you are using the Web server for other purposes in addition to GroupWise
WebAccess.
Hosting WebAccess (the WebAccess Application) on one Web server for your GroupWise
users and WebPublisher (the WebPublisher Application) on another Web server for public
Internet use.
If necessary, you can use multiple WebAccess Agents in this configuration, as shown below.
