Use

For fact sheets and SAP Fiori Search, a connection is established between the ABAP front-end server (SAP Gateway) and SAP Web Dispatcher. You define the routing rules to the required target system to ensure that requests are directed to the correct server.

For the connection between ABAP front-end server and SAP Web Dispatcher, you need the following routing rules:

URL Prefix

Target System

/sap/bc

SAP Gateway

/sap/public

SAP Gateway

/sap/opu

SAP Gateway

Prerequisites

For more information about the prerequisites, see Configuring Communication Channel between Clients and SAP Web Dispatcher.

Procedure
Recommendation

SAP recommends that only those requests corresponding to the services required for the applications that you want to use should be routed to the application servers.

  1. Open the Web Dispatcher profile sapwebdisp.pfl.

  2. Configure SAP Web Dispatcher for the SAP Gateway server.

    To configure the SAP Web Dispatcher for the SAP Gateway server, you can copy the following source code and adapt it to your business requirements.

    wdisp/system_0 = SID=<SID of the Gateway system>,NR=<instnot>, MSHOST=<host name of Gateway system's message server>, MSPORT=<HTTP port of the Gateway system's message server>, SRCSRV=*:443, SRCURL=/sap/opu;/sap/bc;/sap/public 
Note

The SRCSRV and the CLIENT parameter are optional. For more information about the parameters, see:
