Here is how to resolve the potential conflict: To prevent your newly created IP address from being claimed by these other services using the ANY interface, make sure the other services have been configured with specific addresses.įor example, one conflicting service you may run into is the SSL VPN. You will have to enable it by clicking the toggle switch.īy default, other services such as SSL VPN and User Portal use the ANY network as the IP address on which they are available. In this context, ANY refers to all IP address assigned to the Sophos UTM. After the address is added, it is in an off state by default.Specify a name for the address (I use the IP out of habit but you can call it anything you like).Click the + New additional address… button.Select Interfaces and Routing | Interfaces.Multiple public IP addresses are a great way to separate discreet services on the UTM, and you will need to add an additional interface for the Web Server Protection feature.
It is however possible to complete these steps using the IP address only, which may be suitable if you are just testing before going live with a public name. The name is important to know before you proceed because it will be specified as an allowed domain when securing your virtual server, and it will also be used in the SSL certificate. You will need to create an A record pointing to the public IP address you will be using. Since registering a domain (if needed) and propagating DNS records can take some time, you should start here. Register a public DNS record (Optional).To ensure the implementation goes smoothly, the following steps should be performed in order: In this article, I will take you through the steps of publishing an internal website (using the Fastvue Sophos Reporter application as the example web app) using the Sophos UTM Web Server Protection feature.
