Accessing Orion via the Internet

Looking for suggestions on how to best enable Internet access to our Orion web interface? Would you place your core Orion server in a DMZ, would you buy the web Server engine extension, etc...?

Thanks,

James

I'd leave the pollers on my private network and put a web console in the DMZ

We have that exact setup here and it works perfectly. I also find that having the Web Server on a different system significantly increases performance.

So are you using the Web Server Engine from Solarwinds in the DMZ or something else? I was thinking I could avoid buying anything and just use IIS/Apache running on an existing web server in my DMZ.

Yes, I am using the Web Server Engine from SolarWinds. You will need that for it to work properly. I also have a re-direct in place so that all connections are HTTPS.
