Configure Network for Remote API Access by a Cloud One FQDN

With a Cloud One FQDN, you can remotely access Cloud One BCS APIs via a secure tunnel, without the need of configuring public IP and port forwarding for the PBX. This topic describes how to configure network for remote API access via FQDN.

Procedure

  1. Log in to PBX web portal, go to System > Network > Cloud One FQDN.
  2. Turn on Cloud One FQDN.

  3. In the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) field, set up an FQDN domain name.

    In this example, set FQDN to cloudonedocs.ras.cloudone.co.

    1. Select a domain name from the drop-down list.
    2. Enter a host name in the first field.
    3. Note: Think twice before you enter the hostname. The FQDN cannot be changed after you save the configurations.

  4. Enable remote API access feature and configure usage permission.

    1. In the Features section, go to the Remote Access tab.
    2. Click  beside the API Access.

    3. In the pop-up window, complete the following settings according to your need.

      • Name: Display the remote access feature name, and cannot be edited.
      • Status: Select Enabled.
      • Remote Access Service Port: Display the remote API access port 443. The port is assigned by Remote Access Service automatically.

      • Enable IP Restriction: Optional. Select the checkbox of the option, and add at least one permitted IP address and subnet mask.

        If you configure this option, only the permitted IP address(es) can use the remote access feature.

    4. Click Confirm.
  5. Click Save.

Result

You can now remotely access BCS APIs via the FQDN.
