eMIMSelite offsite access for organisations using EZProxy

Applies to:  eMIMSplus & eMIMSelite

Overview

When a user is geographically located outside the organisation (offsite), the user can access eMIMSelite via internet using a username and password.  However at times it is more convenient to access eMIMSelite directly through the organisation’s network freeing the need to type-in any username and password.

For this reason, EZproxy is a customizable middleware program which provides access to remote/offsite users.  It operates as an intermediate server between the remote end-users and the eMIMSelite application thereby providing direct access to eMIMSelite without the need of any further login or password verification.

Important notes to consider

MIMS Australia is not in any way associated with EZProxy.  Suggestions provided herein should only be taken as general advise and not an expert solution.  Please consult with representatives from EZProxy or web-browser companies for proper configuration and/or resolution.  Also, please inform MIMS Australia of your organisation’s IP address which needs to be registered into eMIMSelite.

At times we find EZProxy doesn’t always expose the intended IP address to eMIMSelite which may cause connection issues.  As a work-around, it is recommended to add (or remove) the Option X-Forwarded-For statement into your stanza.
