Specifying one or more passthru servers
All connections from the service to on-premises servers are directed through an IBM® Domino® passthru server. For high availability, set up at least two passthru servers for failover to prevent mail routing delays if a server is unavailable.
Before you begin
Procedure
- Log on to the service as an administrator.
- If your account also has the User role, click .
- In the System Settings section of the navigation pane, click IBM SmartCloud Notes and then click Account Settings.
- From the navigation pane, click Passthru Servers.
- In the Primary passthru server name field, specify the passthru server, such as PassthruMain/Renovations.
- In the Internet host name or IP address field, specify the Internet host name, such as pthru1.renovations.com. Specify a host name rather than an IP address, if possible. Then if the IP address changes, you do not need to reconfigure this setting.
- In the Domino domain name field, specify the name of the Domino domain, such as RenovationsFirewall.
- Optional: In the Optional secondary passthru server name field, provide the name of a server to use in the case of failover.
