you can start taking a look at Qlik Sense deployment in a DMZ Environment

I suggest you to use web ticketing authentication.

Thanks for your response Andrea.

Web ticket will be need for accessing Qlik service by internet. Can you tell me any specific requirement we need for installation of Qlik under DMZ, Sorry I havn't much knowledge about DMZ work, Please explain in details

Thanks

usually DMZ network scenario is when you need to publish services (SAAS) on Internet securing your internal LAN.

regarding how to deploy your qlik sense site on DMZ it strictly depends of your requirements.

i have no much experience on DMZ network too, I used it in one Qlik Sense Site multinode deployment where I installed only the proxy service on RIM node (DMZ) and all services on the central node (LAN).

to authenticate users on DMZ proxy service I developed a web form authentication module with Angular JS to get a web ticket from the Qlik Sense engine.

To make Qlik accessible from internet but not directly, we need a rim node in DMZ layer, we install Qlik there as RIM and network people set that rim node server under DMZ layer. If anyone will breach to DMZ in that case our central node is safe. For authorize users from DMZ server ,WEB TICKETING authentication is the only way in DMZ auth??, where there will be a external web portal which has web ticket code implemented, user will enter his credentials to that portal it will redirect its request to DMZ RIM node and it will be validated by central node.

I do not think there is any especial requirement for installation of Qlik on that server which will be moved to DMZ network ?

Please add your input and correct me if needed.

Best,

Yes I agree with you i think it's not need any special requirement.

One Quick question, I have N printing 17.3 and 300 users. When I execute the task, it takes 30 hours to complete. I am using filtration at N-printing on one field and it has different value for each user. So I am planning to use section access on same field and values for each rather than using filtration in N printing. Do you think it can reduce the execution time ?

I can't help you Rohit, and I'm mostly rubbernecking, but what's the size of your NPrinting server?

[agigliotti]

i'm sorry but i don't have a strong knowledge of NPrinting product.

however i almost always use section access for security reason and/or for data reduction.
