If your Mail server is accessible from the Internet, you may install Lotus Traveler on your Mail server. If you
have the hardware resources, it is advised to install Traveler on a separate server. In case you want to
install Traveler on as separate server (Lotus Traveler on top of Lotus Domino) you don't need an additional
licence, unless there are no applications or mail users on this server. As well, the Lotus Traveler license is
included in the Lotus Notes licence, so if you have licensed your Lotus Notes software, you don't need to
pay for an additional for Traveler license.
You may put Lotus Traveler in a DMZ zone. In this case, it may not contain any replicas, it will look up mail
files from the mail servers or mail cluster. It will work like a proxy; clients will connect to Traveler, but actual
data (mail files) will be accessed from the Mail server.
The third and most secure way to access Lotus Traveler is to locate Traveler behind a firewall, so users will
access Traveler server via a VPN client. Some phones provide built-in VPN client software, but others need
additional software to be installed. In this case additional software could cause additional costs. Also,
additional software means you need to manage it, so your Help Desk and IT departments will need to
understand these considerations.
