Install Lawson Portal Web Server Files for Users Running Applications outside the Firewall

This section describes the Lawson Portal installation setup for customers who want to allow users to access some applications, for example, Employee / Manager Self Service, from outside the firewall. In this situation you are installing an additional web server to runLawson Portal Web Server files.

The installation of the External Portal is similar to installing Lawson Portal on the LSF web server. One major difference is that this installation is on the web server only. You do not need to install any Lawson Portal files on the LSF server.

Note: The setup described here is one part of the configuration that you must perform in order to allow users to access Employee / Manager from outside the firewall. An overview of all setup procedures is in Employee Manager Self Service Administration Guide.
