TZO relay (http relay): detailed
description

here's the problem - You have your own
domain name, a cable or DSL connection, and a dynamic
IP address. You want to host a web site but your ISP
blocks port 80. |
| |
|
|
• |
and the solution - Our service tracks your
current IP address and "resolves" your domain name to
your current IP address. Although port 80 is the
standard port for web requests, with this service you
can receive web requests on any port you choose. When
you choose a different port, however, you have to
configure your web server to receive requests on that
port and if you have a router you'll have to open the
port you've choosen on your router as well. To use
this service you need to have your own domain name,
but the cost of registering the domain name itself is
not included in the cost of this service. |
| |
|
|
• |
the result is - You can run a web server
even though you have a dynamic IP address and your
ISP blocks port 80. |
| |
|
|
• |
how it works
- When you use
this service all web requests for your domain name
come first to one of our "relay servers." The relay
server looks-up the port on which you've chosen to
receive web requests and it forwards the web request
to your web server on the port you've
chosen. |
| |
|
|
• |
there are two operating modes - There are
two modes of operation for the Standard Relay
Service, HTTP Relay Mode and Stealth Relay Mode. In
the HTTP Relay Mode a visitor to your site will see
your entire URL in the browser including the port
number to which the request is forwarded. In the
Stealth Relay Mode the user does not see the
forwarding port number. To hide the port forwarding
information we create a frame at our relay servers in
which to display your web site and therefore your web
site is susceptible to any of the problems that
having frames may cause. This mode also allows the
visitor to bookmark page only your index
page. |
