Add an Application to a Network
A Network Application is used for access control and routing. A private Application's domain name is resolved using a DNS entry in CloudConnexa or a configured private DNS server.
A Network Application is used for access control and routing. A private Application's domain name is resolved using a DNS entry in CloudConnexa or a configured private DNS server. For more information, refer to About Network Applications.
An Application can be added to a Network while configuring the new Network. You can add an Application to an existing Network from the Applications tab shown in the detailed view as shown in View, make changes, and delete a Network, or you can add it from the Network Applications list as shown below:
Navigate to Networks > Applications.
Click Add Application.
Provide a Name for the Application.
Add an optional Description.
Change the All for Application Type (Network) protocols to select specific application protocols to permit while restricting all others.
Provide a domain name for the Application in the Domain field.
Enable Allow Embedded IP if you use the above domain to create domain names with IP addresses.
Embedded IP enables you to append an IP address to a domain and resolve such domains without adding a DNS record. This is useful for IoT networks. For example, ssh root@192-168-1-1.server.example.com can be used to SSH into the computer with a private IP address of 192.168.1.1 on the Network that has the domain name of server.example.com configured as an Application with Allow Embedded IP ON.
Additional Domain names with the corresponding Allow Embedded IP setting can be added as desired. For example, for a web application, you could add two domain names: cnn.com and www.cnn.com
Click Add Application.
The newly added Application will be listed. Click Add Application to add additional Applications.
Note
Remember to add a DNS Record in CloudConnexa or your configured private DNS server for private domain names.
Remember to use the newly created Application in Access Groups. Refer to Add an Access Group to allow access.
