MORE INFORMATION

Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration (ISA) Server 2004 uses Web publishing rules to handle issues that are associated with publishing Web content to the Internet without compromising internal network security. Web publishing rules determine the following:
  • How ISA Server intercepts incoming requests for HTTP objects on an internal Web server.
  • How ISA Server responds on behalf of the Web server.
Requests are forwarded downstream to an internal Web server that is behind the ISA Server computer. If it is possible, the request is serviced from the ISA Server cache.

Web publishing rules map incoming requests to the appropriate Web servers that are behind the ISA Server computer.

Three common ISA Server Web publishing scenarios are:
  • Publishing a Web server that is located in your internal network or in your perimeter network.
  • Publishing specific folders to different public names.
  • Publishing two Web servers with different domain names.
To view detailed solutions for each of these scenarios, see the "Publishing Web Servers Using ISA Server 2004" document. To download this document, visit the following Microsoft Web site:
