Reverse Proxy
To support external access to the Director web services, use a reverse proxy. It is possible to allow Internet traffic directly to the external web services ports, but a reverse proxy helps to increase security by inspecting the HTTP and HTTPS traffic and filtering any malicious requests.
→ Refer to Chapter 6, “Microsoft Lync Server 2010 Edge,” for configuration of a reverse proxy such as Microsoft Forefront Threat Management Gateway.
