Installing Sectona Remote Access Publisher Component

Sectona Remote Access Publisher Component (RAP) is an independent installable component that receives requests from a specified TCP Port to an actual TCP Port. This is essentially needed to redirect the PAM portal from an external zone like the internet.

For example, you have a URL https;//remote.sectona.com:8845 which must communicate to an application hosted internally via https://internalpam.sectona.com

If you have a firewall that allows TCP forwarding, you may alternatively use that to achieve this functionality.
