Network Architecture

Two deployment options are available when setting up WIN-911 Mobile on your network, Standalone or Distributed.

A Standalone configuration requires internet access on your WIN-911 system, which is typically installed on a process network, while a distributed deployment does not. A Distributed deployment makes use of the WIN-911 Mobile Hub which is a separate application that internet traffic can be routed through, much like a proxy server, adding a layer of separation from the internet. The Mobile Hub can be installed on a separate network layer from the WIN-911 installation, for example, the DMZ or business network.

All network traffic, regardless of the deployment, is outbound initiated which means you can communicate with the WIN-911 Mobile Web API/Azure AD without opening a port on your firewall, or making intrusive changes to your corporate network infrastructure.
