Macromedia Breeze Edge Server

The Breeze Edge Server license file

When your order for Breeze Edge Server is processed, Macromedia Order Services dispatches 
an e-mail with the Breeze Edge Server license file (license.lic) attached. 

To install the Breeze Edge Server license file, do the following:

1.

Go to 

c:\{install_path}\edgeserver\conf\win32\

.

2.

Create a folder named 

licenses

, if it does not already exist.

3.

Open the e-mail from Macromedia.

4.

Save the license.lic file in the 

licenses

 folder.

With the license file in place, you can now stop and start Breeze Edge Server and FCS services 
to verify that the installation was successful.

Configuring FCS for Breeze Edge Server

Each organization configures its network differently, reflecting its business rules and 
geographical distribution. The key for a successful edge server deployment is making sure that 
the user’s computers (Breeze clients) receive an edge server’s IP address when resolving the 
Domain Name Server (DNS) entry for the 

BREEZEHOST

 variable (formerly known as 

ADMIN_HOST

). 

Here is a scenario for large Breeze deployments that builds upon the graphic in 

■

On-site clients (Chicago users) can access the Breeze origin server directly. The Breeze 
Host DNS mapping for these clients resolves to the Breeze origin server’s IP address.

■

Edge servers collect off-site clients’ (Boston and San Francisco users) requests for services 
and route the requests to the Breeze origin server. 

■

The Breeze Host DNS mapping for these remote clients resolves to the appropriate edge 
server’s IP address.

■

San Francisco clients access Breeze through edge server 1; Boston clients use edge server 2.  
No clients in these regions communicate directly with the Breeze origin server. 

Access to Breeze is determined by modifying the DNS server that is nearest to the client. To 
direct Breeze users to their nearest edge server, the Breeze administrator creates a DNS entry 
in the edge server’s custom.ini configuration file. For edge servers, the 

FCS.HTTPCACHE_BREEZE_SERVER_NORMAL_PORT 

variable contains the DNS entry.
