Disable a web interface on specific web servers

By default, every web interface configuration can be accessed on every server where Adaxes web interface is installed. However, you might want to restrict access to certain configurations on certain servers. For example, you might not want the web interface configurations for administrators and help desk to be available on your servers in the DMZ.

To restrict access to a web interface on specific web servers:

1. Open Adaxes web interface configurator.

    How

   • On the computer where web interface configurator is installed, open Windows Start menu.

   • Click Adaxes Web Interface Configurator.

   To configure the web interface, you need to have the appropriate permissions.

    Permissions

   The permissions to configure the web interface are delegated via security roles. By default, only service administrators have the appropriate permissions. To enable other users to configure the web interface, grant them the corresponding permissions.

   To create a security role that grants the permissions to configure web interface:

   • In Adaxes administration console, right-click your Adaxes service, point to New and click Security Role.

   • Enter a name for the new security role and click Next.

   • On the Permissions step, click the down arrow embedded into the Add button and click Configure Web Interface.

   • Click Next and follow the steps in the wizard.

2. In the top left corner, select the web interface you want to customize.

3. In the left navigation menu, click Access control.

4. In the Web servers section, configure the list of web servers you want to allow or deny the web interface on.

5. Save the changes.

   Section settings can be applied to other web interface configurations. Click the down arrow button in the top right corner of the section and then click Apply to other web interfaces.
