Creating a Port Forwarder

The Port Forwarder API is a collection of functions used to provide
applications with the ability to send traffic through a previously defined
port forwarder link. For instructions on how to configure a port forwarder
link on the NVG Portal, see the chapter "Group Links" in the Application
Guide for VPN.

To be able to use the Port Forwarder API, two URLs are needed:

•

URL for the Portal login (called

loginUrl

in the following examples)

Example:

http://vpn.example.com/login_post.yaws?user=

test&password=test&authmethod=default&url=

The parameters are the same as if accessing the Portal through a web
browser.

•

URL for the actual port forwarder (called

portForwarderUrl

in the

following examples)
Example:

http://vpn.example.com/link.yaws?t=custom&a=

1&b=1&c=1

The parameters a, b and c in the second link point out the link
according to:
a: VPN number

b: Linkset number

c: Link number
