Summary
This technical note provides step by step instructions for installing and configuring the security proxy server in a Windows environment. Note: This feature is not required to run Reflection for the Web.
Note: Beginning in Reflection for the Web 2008, the security proxy server is not included in the Standard Edition.
Installing and Configuring the Security Proxy Server
If you are using the automated installer to install both the Security Proxy and Reflection Management Server components, simply run the installation and choose to install the Security Proxy NT Service when prompted. In this scenario the proxy server is configured automatically.
However, if you are installing the Security Proxy component separately from the Reflection Management Server component (either at a different time, or on a different computer), then you must run the Security Proxy Wizard after the installation to configure the proxy server.
After the installation, run the Security Proxy Wizard:
- Configure the following tabs:
- On the Trusted Certificates tab, import the Reflection management server certificate.
- On the Proxies tab, create a new proxy (or select a proxy), selecting the self-signed certificate. Specify the type of protocol for the proxy: emulation, secure FTP, or both (the default). Click Help on the tab for more information.
- Export the proxy server settings to the Reflection management server.
- Stop and restart the security proxy service.
For detailed information about installing Reflection, see the documentation in the product or online:

Reflection for the Web 9.x: http://support.attachmate.com/manuals/wthdocs.html
You can now create secure terminal sessions using the Terminal Session tool in the Administrative WebStation. When you create a new session, select "Encrypt datastream using SSL and the Reflection Security Proxy Server."
