Hello.
EP6 SP15. Our EP6 will soon replace our company's home intranet site which runs on MS IIS standard port 80. Currently, when users want access to our corporate intranet site, they can open a browser and type "sooners" and the site's home page displays. "Sooners" is an alias for the hostname of the web server in our DNS.
Is there a way to set up the same type of alias for the portal? Our goal is to keep the same alias and have users be directed to the Portal homepage instead of the current intranet site. A user would type in "sooners" and be directed to http://hostname.domain.com:50000/irj. It would also be great if this alias stayed in the address bar and the normal portal url (http://hostname.domain.com:50000/irj was never seen.
I believe I've seen this type of redirection using a (Apache) reverse proxy, but is this possible using just the portal on an internal-only windows domain or must a reverse proxy be used?
Thanks in advance for the help.
