54 IBM Tivoli Remote Control Across Firewalls
Tracing for RC Proxy-TFST
The methods used to start a session in a Remote Control Proxy-TFST
architecture are the same that are used to start a session in a non-secure
environment. Refer to Example 1-1 on page 16 for a subset of an IBM Tivoli
Management Framework odstat command output for a single-TMR architecture;
and to Example 1-6 on page 25 and Example 1-7 on page 25 for multi-TMR
architecture.
In Tracing for single-TMR session on page 16 and Tracing for a multi-TMR
session on page 24, we provided the detail of the most important methods used
to start a Remote Control session both in a single-TMR and multi-TMR
architecture. As mentioned, the methods are almost the same to start a Remote
Control session in a secure environment. Thus, we only provide in this section
the main differences for the most important methods.
The Target request, managed by the remote_control method, remains the same
in a secure environment. For more information about this method, refer to
Example 1-2 on page 19 for a single-TMR architecture and to Example 1-8 on
page 28 for a multi-TMR architecture.
The Example 1-19 details the is_proxied_ep method started from either the
TMR Server in a single-TMR architecture or from the Spoke TMR Server in a
multi-TMR architecture. It refers to the following line in Example 1-7 on page 25:
1380596993.12.522+#TMF_Endpoint::Endpoint# is_proxied_ep
This method checks if the Target is behind an Endpoint Proxy/Gateway Proxy
architecture. If the result is true, Remote Control knows that an Endpoint Proxy
must be used to contact the Target. We see that the result of this method is true;
this means that the Target is an Endpoint connected to a Gateway Proxy.

Results: (encoded):
true
Example 1-20 details the nd_start_target method started from either the TMR
Server in a single-TMR architecture or from the Spoke TMR Server in a
multi-TMR architecture. It refers to the following line in Example 1-7 on page 25:
1380596993.12.522+#TMF_Endpoint::Endpoint# nd_start_target
This method is used to start the local Remote Control process on the Target. A
return code of 0; this means that the session starts without error.
