End User Portal Settings
Introduction
Enduser portal settings pertain to recipients with access to view their training exercises in a dedicated portal. This article focuses on configuring the parameters of the portal that end users log into.
Configuration
Domain
By default, your end-user portal will be hosted on the same domain as your administrative domain. For example if your server address is https://lucyserver.com, the portal login will be https://lucyserver.com/user/.
You can change the domain to any domain added to your Lucy server. Ensure all relevant DNS records are set up for custom domains.
Subdomain
Lucy offers the optional configuration of a subdomain, often used with custom domains. This allows you to point DNS records at the subdomain level to the IP address of the Lucy server. For example:
https://training.lucyserver.com/user/
Only single-level subdomains are allowed.
SSO Considerations
End-user portal SSO (SAML 2.0) authentication will not work if you change the domain to anything other than the system domain.
Port
Hosting the end-user portal at a custom port might be done for several reasons:
Security: Using a non-standard port can reduce the likelihood of automated attacks targeting common ports.
Compliance: Some organizational policies or regulatory requirements might mandate the use of specific ports for certain services.
Load Balancing: Distributing traffic across multiple ports can help manage load and ensure better performance.
SSL
If you are hosting the portal on a different domain than your admin domain, or you are hosting on a different subdomain and have specific SSL for each subdomain, you can apply SSL here:
You must first generate or upload the SSL certificate in the SSL Settings.
