When you publish your application on multiple network zones, such as the internet, the URLs are handled based on the DNS settings.

The following combinations are recommended in managing your URL settings in case of workflow and notifications:

If you have published the Sectona Web Access component in a cluster/load-balanced setup, provide the URL as per your DNS records in primary DNS settings.
If you have published two independent instances and implemented failover, provide the individual IP addresses of each instance to manage IP addresses or URLs.
DMZ settings are used when users share URLs to access the DMZ setup.

To customize the site mentioned above setting, follow the below steps:

Login to the Sectona portal as an administrator.
Go to Configuration → click on the Site Address (URL) tab on the sidebar.
Provide primary, secondary, and DMZ DNS in the respective fields.
Tick the Restrict Login Via DMZ MNS to disable DMZ DNS access.
Under the Binding Address (URL) section, enter the required information in the Live Session and Collaboration field.
Note: The Binding URL option configures a dedicated application/application proxy node. If the Binding URL path is not reachable, the session will be created from the Primary DNS address.
Click on Save.

If the Primary DNS is not configured in the PAM, then the system will use DMZ DNS for workflow-related URLs.
