Test the Connect:Direct Connections

About this task

To verify that the engine can receive and initiate communications sessions, you have to establish a connection between a Connect:Direct® PNODE and the engine, initiate a session from the engine to the Connect:Direct SNODE in the trusted zone, and review the Secure Proxy log for the results.

This procedure enables you to verify that the engine can:
  • Establish a Connect:Direct session between a PNODE and Secure Proxy
  • Initiate a session to a Connect:Direct SNODE on behalf of the Connect:Direct PNODE connection

To verify the communications sessions:

Procedure

  1. View the secureproxy.log.
  2. Confirm that the sessions were established, as shown in the following example.
