The Manage My FPN Connections tool provides you with an option to check the connection from your system to a remote system that is defined in an FPN connection. This is the same test that is available in the FPN Connection wizard.

Note that the test does not check the connection from the remote system to your system. To do so, a system administrator must run the connection test from the remote system.

We recommend that you test the connection between systems before you register an FPN connection.

Prerequisites

  • You are authorized to access the portal role containing the Federated Portal workset.

  • A system administrator has created an FPN connection that pairs your system with a remote system.

  • You have at least administrator read permission for the FPN connection. For more information, see Assigning Administrator Permissions to FPN Connections.

Procedure

  1. In the portal, navigate to   System Administration   Federated Portal   SAP NetWeaver - FPN Connections   Manage My FPN Connections  .

    The My FPN Connections tab appears.

  2. In the My FPN Connections table, select an FPN connection.

  3. Choose   Connection   Test Connectivity to Remote System  .

    The results of the test appear in a pop-in area below the selected FPN connection.

    Recommendation Recommendation

    If the test does not succeed, we recommend that you check the following:

    • Your portal and the remote portal are both running.

    • There are no network problems.

    • The connection settings of your system and the remote system are entered correctly in the FPN connection.

    • The proxy service is running and configured correctly on each portal. For more information, see Configuring Proxy Settings.

    End of the recommendation.
