DMZ Proxy
The DMZ Proxy is a component that can be installed within a corporate DMZ or Firewalling Gateway to bolster security for
devices connecting to the OneBridge Sync Server from outside the corporate network. The DMZ Proxy software is a proxy
server or an application-specific firewall for OneBridge Sync Server. The use of the DMZ Proxy makes utilizing
filtering/firewalling significantly less complex to set up, while enhancing security and ease of use for functions such as auditing
(for intrusion detection or usage monitoring). The DMZ Proxy understands the OneBridge protocol and makes it possible to
disallow any connections from the Internet to the private network. The DMZ Proxy examines and authenticates each connection
and checks OneBridge protocol packets for validity.
Client Deployment Wizard
The Client Deployment Wizard is a utility provided to assist administrators in creating pre-configured installation applications for
distributing the OneBridge Client software to end users.
OneBridge Client Software
The OneBridge Client software is a program that runs on the mobile device, making synchronization possible between the
OneBridge Sync Server and the client (the mobile device). Once the Client software has been installed and configured, the end
user synchronizes their mobile device by tapping the client Connect icon. This action establishes a connection with the
OneBridge Sync Server and initiates the synchronization.
Desktop Connector
Desktop Connector is a program that runs on a networked PC (running Windows NT/2000 or Windows 95/98/Me/XP), providing
an efficient communication link between the mobile device and the OneBridge Sync Server. For some devices and hardware
configurations, Desktop Connector is the only means of synchronizing the device with OneBridge Sync Server. For other
configurations, it provides simpler setup than the alternatives (e.g., RAS) and/or eliminates the need for other desktop
synchronization software (e.g., ActiveSync, HotSync, and Nokia PC suite).
