3.6. Configuring the SCSP Proxy The SCSP Proxy installation on the CSN allows for clients on the external network, including remote clusters using DX Content Router, to send and receive SCSP requests to and from DX Storage nodes on the internal network. The SCSP Proxy is configured during the network bootstrap process to listen on port 80 of both the external and internal interfaces. The log level for the Proxy can be changed from the user interface by selecting an alternate value from the dropdown and clicking 'Update'. The SCSP Proxy is also capable of communicating with remote clusters to perform operations like global infos for one or more objects. Please reference the SCSP Proxy Overview for a full overview of the supported remote methods. To add a remote cluster to the configured list, click the 'Add Cluster' button. To edit an existing remote cluster, click the 'Edit' button. To delete a cluster from the list, click the checkbox in the Delete column next to the cluster that should be deleted and then click 'Update'. Copyright © 2010 Caringo, Inc.

3.6. Configuring the SCSP Proxy

The SCSP Proxy installation on the CSN allows for clients on the external network, including remote

clusters using DX Content Router, to send and receive SCSP requests to and from DX Storage

nodes on the internal network. The SCSP Proxy is configured during the network bootstrap process

to listen on port 80 of both the external and internal interfaces. The log level for the Proxy can be

changed from the user interface by selecting an alternate value from the dropdown and clicking

'Update'.

The SCSP Proxy is also capable of communicating with remote clusters to perform operations like

global infos for one or more objects. Please reference the SCSP Proxy Overview for a full overview

of the supported remote methods. To add a remote cluster to the configured list, click the 'Add

Cluster' button. To edit an existing remote cluster, click the 'Edit' button. To delete a cluster from the

list, click the checkbox in the Delete column next to the cluster that should be deleted and then click

'Update'.
