For using the mobile apps of Enterprise Alert these apps need to access the Enterprise Alert server. Due to security concerns a direct access might not be suitable. One option is to use a Web Application Proxy (WAP), another one is to use a reverse proxy.

Download and Install Software<\/h2>\n
<\/div>\n
1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>Download and install <\/span>URL Rewrite<\/a> (Use „Install this extension“ or scroll to the download section at the bottom and download the appropriate version).<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>Download and install <\/span>Application Request Routing (ARR)<\/a> (Use „Install this extension“ or scroll to the download section at the bottom and download the appropriate version).<\/span><\/div>\n
