DRAFT!!!!!!
Prerequisites and information
Network
- You need a new public IPv4 IP address for a subprovider.
- The IP must be configured to route to your regify provider software appliance or loadbalancer (depending on your configuration).
- Internal routing IP address must get added in provider appliance menu.
- A new DNS A-record must be made to route your new domain (like subprovider.company.com) to the new public IP address.
- If your proviuder runs with own MTA (one setting for all provider instances), you need a reverse DNS entry for email.
Certificate
- Buy a SSL certificate for the needed sub-provider domain.
- While setting up the new sub-provider in your appliance menu, a new certificate is generated.
- You can display the signing request by choosing "Show Cert Request" in appliance menu.
- Use the signing request to order your certificate.
- If received, collect the certificate, all itermediate certificates and root certificate (only Provider < V3.4) in a text editor.
- Import certificate using "Inmport Signed Cert" from appliance menu and past text editor content.
- Check correct certificate chain here [1] (maybe only possible after finished setup).
Setting up the sub-provider
Please ensure that all prerequisites are fullfilled. Now follow these steps:
- Enter appliance menu and chose "Add Subprovider" option.
- Enter IP address (internal address if behind firewall, router or loadbalancer).
