How Cisco WebEx Meetings Server Works
Cisco WebEx Meetings Server is a virtualized, software -based solution that runs on Cisco Unified Computing
System
™
(Cisco UCS
®
) Servers and VMware. It uses virtual appliance technology for rapid turn -up of services to
end users. With Cisco WebEx Meetings Server, there are two options for enabling mobile users to mo re securely
access WebEx
®
conferences without going through a VPN. The first option is to deploy reverse proxy (or edge
servers) in the enterprise perimeter (or DMZ). The second option, shown in Figure 1, is to deploy the reverse proxy
servers behind your internal firewall, thus eliminating all DMZ components and related information security
concerns .
In addition, Cisco WebEx Meetings Server uses simple port forwarding on ports 80 (HTTP) and 443 (SSL) to
minimize the number of ports that need to be opened i n your external and internal firewalls. Back-end servers
integrate with Cisco Unified Communications Manager for high -quality teleconferencing.
In large enterprise deployments, critical manageability requirements include user provisioning as well as the ab ility
for users to sign in using their corporate credentials. Cisco WebEx Meetings Server supports these requirements
by enabling you to use LDAP directory services for user management and authentication, or use the industry-
standard SAML 2.0 Single Sign-On.
