Privacy Proxy service is responsible for transferring XMLRPC or HTTP(S) requests from the protected internal network (BackNet) to the external network (FrontNet). For example, from a VPS hardware node to the Internet (in case of templates updating), or from the management node to:
- Plesk
- Internet (in case of Virtuozzo containers templates upload)
Privacy Proxy server is necessary for Plesk in VPS Hosting and for collecting usage statistics.
You can install the Privacy Proxy service on any CloudBlue Commerce-registered host that has both BackNet and FrontNet network interfaces.
You can also use a separate host specially designated for the Privacy Proxy service.
