Configuring FCS for Breeze Edge Server 15
Mapping the DNS entry for Breeze Edge Server
Mapping the DNS entry for an edge server is comparable to mapping the BREEZE_HOST
variable for Breeze Server on the Breeze Application Management Console. For example, if
the value for BREEZE_HOST (the host name to use in a URL for accessing the Breeze origin
server) is
breeze.mycompany.com , the DNS entry for an edge server maps
breeze.mycompany.com to the IP address of the nearest edge server.
To configure Breeze Edge Server manually:
1. Open the
{install_path}\
root directory.
2.
Delete the custom.ini file in this directory, if there is one.
3.
Create a new text file and save it as custom.ini.
4.
Open the custom.ini file with a text editor, such as Notepad.
5.
Add the following line to the custom.ini file:
FCS.HTTPCACHE_BREEZE_SERVER_NORMAL_PORT= yourbreezeserver : 80
where yourbreezeserver:80 is the IP address or domain name and port number of the
machine where the Breeze server is installed.
The value for this variable configures the edge server to connect to the Breeze server at this
location.
6. Save the custom.ini file.
You can now start and stop Breeze Edge Server. For more information, see “Stopping and
starting Breeze Edge Server” on page 24 .
Configuring the Breeze Edge Server ports
Edge servers are configured to listen on ports 80 and 443 in addition to the default port of
1935. You configure the ports by modifying the
DEFAULT_FCS_HOSTPORT
variable. If this
variable is not found in the custom.ini configuration file, you must add the following line to
the file:
DEFAULT_FCS_HOSTPORT=:1935,80,-443
NO
T
E
The values in the custom.ini file override the values in the config.ini file. The
FCS.HTTPCACHE_BREEZE_SERVER_NORMAL_PORT variable also appears in the
config.ini file. Do not change the values for any variable in the config.ini file.
NO
TE
FCS.HTTPCACHE_BREEZE_SERVER_NORMAL_PORT
should be the only entry in the edge
server custom.ini file.
