Will Ezeelogin work behind a firewall or NAT or behind a Proxy?

Can Ezeelogin operate effectively behind a firewall, NAT, or proxy server?


Overview: This article explains that Ezeelogin can function behind a firewall, NAT, or proxy by establishing a connection to the license server on port 443, with options to specify proxy details if necessary.


Yes, Ezeelogin would work behind a firewall , NAT or a proxy. It would need to establish a connection to license.ezeelogin.com on port 443 to fetch the license.

wget -qO- http://ezeelogin.com/myip

Run the command  on the ssh gateway server and it would show the ip for which the license has to be issued if your ssh gateway is behind a NAT.

If you are behind a proxy, you can specify the proxy host details as parameter to the install script

sh ezlogin_7.x.x.bin -- -help

-proxy_host <host>  : Proxy host for connecting to the ezeelogin license server
-proxy_port <port>  : Proxy port for connecting to the ezeelogin license server
-proxy_user <username> : Proxy username for connecting to the ezeelogin license server
-proxy_pass <password> : Proxy pass for connecting to the license server

Example:

sh ezlogin_7.x.x.bin -- -proxy_host 1.3.4.1 -proxy_port 8080

In the web panel, you can specify the proxy host details under the following tab: Settings -> General -> Miscellaneous. Enter the proxy host, proxy username, proxy port, and proxy password, then save.
