WEB_SERVER_TUNNEL_USE option for NetBackup clients
In a demilitarized zone (DMZ), the client uses a sequence of steps to set up communication with the master server. By default, the client tries to communicate with the master directly, and if the connection fails, tries to communicate using an HTTP tunnel on the media server. You can use the WEB_SERVER_TUNNEL_USE option to change the default behavior.
For more information, refer to the About the communication between a NetBackup client located in a demilitarized zone and a master server through an HTTP tunnel section in the NetBackup Security and Encryption Guide.
