Deploying Behind IIS


This guide is mainly for On-Prem server mode. Follow the instructions below to set up Binfer behind the IIS HTTPS server.

  1. Set up a domain or a subdomain that can reach the Binfer server.
  2. Install ARR extension, Microsoft's ARR page, if missing.
  3. Install URL rewrite extension, Microsoft's URL Rewrite page, if missing.
  4. Open the IIS Manager and navigate to the site that the traffic will pass through under Sites.
  5. Click on URL Rewrite.
  6. Choose Add Rule(s) from the Actions menu.
  7. Select Reverse Proxy as your template and enter the IP of the machine followed by the port it was installed on under Inbound Rules.
  8. Leave Enable SSL Offloading checked and press Ok.
  9. Select Bindings from the Actions menu and ensure that there are bindings to port 80 (http) and port 443 (https) with a valid certificate.
  10. In Binfer click on top right menu > SETTINGS > NETWORK.
  11. Enter 443 as the domain port and check the IS HTTPS? Checkbox.
    • binfer-setup-https
  12. Click SAVE.
  13. Verify the test URL in a browser.

Note: In some cases if the setup does not work, then try redoing the reverse proxy rule without checking Rewrite the domain names of links in HTTP responses.
