GW-853 HTTP Proxy
2017 Plus introduces a new setting on the HTTP proxy, the client
certificate listening port. This port accepts HTTPS requests from the user
during client certificate authentication only, and after sign in, the user's
session to Ipswitch Gateway goes through the normal Listen On Port
number. The default client certificate listening port is 2443, which requires
a firewall rule.
GW-852 Settings
The Gateway's hostname or IP address was added to the Settings page. You
may now edit this name post-installation. Doing so restarts all running
HTTP proxies.
GW-838 Install
On fresh installs, the Ipswitch Gateway installer now prompts for the
hostname of the Gateway system, as viewed by end users. This is needed
for processing HTTPS client certificate authentication.
GW-741 Proxies
When adding a proxy, the Listen on IP Address or Hostname value is now
prepopulated with 0.0.0.0, which directs the proxy to listen on all available
addresses at the given port.
GW-726 Client Identity
Client IP addresses and client certificates now propagate to MOVEit
Transfer for all proxies. Previously, all requests to MOVEit Transfer
seemed to originate from the Gateway machine, making it necessary to
disable certain security related MOVEit transfer features, such as IP
Lockouts, and sign out logs and technical support links in MOVEit
Transfer showed the Gateway IP address instead of the client IP address.
For every proxy request, Ipswitch Gateway now sends to MOVEit Transfer
a header that contains the IP address of the browser that is accessing
Gateway. You no longer need to disable IP lockouts on the MOVEit
Transfer server.
GW-47 HTTP Proxy
Ipswitch Gateway now implements authentication to MOVEit Transfer
using SSL client certificates, and SFTP public keys.
