How to enable backoffice in cluster nodes

[Former Member]

Hi Expert,

I have a requirement that we need to have dedicated two nodes for backoffice. we should not have backoffice in storefront nodes. can you please suggest the best way to achieve it ?

Thanks

You can restrict the two nodes to your internal IPs through your Apache config files (http.conf, mod_access, mod_proxy).

:Thanks for the update.

i got the restriction through apache but i need to understand how to enable the backoffice nodes.

ex: i have two backoffice nodes -

1) 10.10.10.10 2) 20.20.20.20

there is a property for cluster groups but i am not sure how much it will be useful in case of backoffice clustering

cluster.node.groups=backoffice, frontoffice

I hope this also can be done from Apacahe level only thank you

It is important to know that all extensions and web roots will be exposed on all cluster nodes. In addition to what recommended, the web/reverse-proxy/ingress-controller tier of your system should also filter URL paths to prevent external users from accessing backoffice URL paths available on storefront nodes.
