Issue with assigned target configurated fields

[Former Member]

Actually, on our production system we are connecting on a url (on the internet) :

- https://example.test.com/myportal

to access our sap EM portal.

This url is link to the SAP machine TESTMACHINE:8000 (I think it's a SAP Webdyspatcher)

When we navigate on the different transaction of the SAP EM portal, there is no issue, we have access to our datas (event handlers)

A problem appears when we click on a link of an event handler (assigned target configurated field), it's opening a new tab with the link :

http://TESTMACHINE:8000/sap/bc/webdynpro/saptrx/em_fpm_ehdetail?EH_GUID=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX&UP_ID=ZYYYYYYY

(it should have generate the url : https://example.test.com/sap/bc/webdynpro/saptrx/em_fpm_ehdetail?EH_GUID=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX&UP_ID=ZYYYYYYY)

The problem is that I can't access to the 'TESTMACHINE:8000' from a 'standard internet' connexion, the TESTMACHINE:8000 is only available when I'm on the 'internal' network.

The link in the Event Handler is an 'assigned target configurated field' on the internet interface of SAP EM.

Can you help me?

Thank you in advance.

Hello Bernard,

   Your Basis team need to perform certain activities for the same.The host file entry need to be maintained & the ports need to be open for external access.As this interacts with the client network being accessed from outside, the security team need to take many things into consideration & the configuration need to be made accordingly.

Hi Bernard,

I don't think you can use sap server id with port expose and use standard internet connection.  Please check below links that will you to achieve what you need.  Arun Yesodharan has completed recently.
