Creating a listener

Warning

Data model objects: safes, users, servers, accounts and listeners are replicated within the cluster and object instances must not be added on each node. In case the replication mechanism fails to copy objects to other nodes, contact technical support department.

Note

  • A listener cannot link to an account that is assigned to a server with a different protocol then the one defined in the listener.
  • A proxy type listener can link to only one server.
  • A bastion type listener cannot link to an anonymous account.
  • A listener cannot link to the same anonymous account through two different safes.
  • A listener cannot link to an anonymous and a regular or forward account to the same server with the same protocol as the listener’s protocol.
  • A listener cannot link to two regular or forward type accounts to the same server with the same protocol as the listener’s protocol, to which a single user has access.
  • For a given linked RDP listener and RDP server, both have to use either Standard RDP Security or TLS or NLA.
