Voraussetzungen und Arbeitsweise

AMSWebService

The requesting instance must have access to the productive AMS-SERVER. Requests to the access port must not be blocked by a firewall, routing rules or others. Of course this applies for the other direction as well.

An authentication of the service communication is managed through SSL using client and server certificates.

There are different options for the user authentication:

  • Option 1 - the internet provision checks the users' login for authenticity and validity. Only authenticated and authorized users can transmit requests to the WebService.
  • Option 2 - the internet provision forwards the requests unaudited to the WebService which checks whether the requesting user can be authenticated and authorized before processing the request. If successful, the request is processed, if not an error message is generated.
