Process Flow

The process for third-party cloud servers and on-premises IDC to access HSS through Direct Connect and proxy servers is as follows:

  1. Creating a Direct Connect

    If a third-party server cannot access the public network, you need to create a Direct Connect to connect to the VPC on the cloud for network interconnection.

  2. Creating a Proxy Server

    You need to create a third-party server as the proxy server to connect to the third-party server.

  3. Installing an Agent on the Proxy Server

    Install an agent on the proxy server. Ensure the network is available and configure Nginx.

  4. Installing and Configuring Nginx on the Proxy Server

    Nginx forwards requests from a third-party server to the HSS management backend.

  5. Creating an Agent Installation Package or Installation Commands Using a Proxy Server

    Generate the installation command for Linux servers and the package for Windows servers.

  6. Installing the Agent for a Third-Party Server

    Install an agent for a third-party server and connect the server to HSS for unified management.
