Summary: | A global manager computer generates management instructions for a particular managed server within an administrative domain according to a set of rules. A global manager computer identifies a traffic midpoint device through which the provider managed server provides a service to a user device. The global manager determines a relevant rule from the set of rules that is applicable to communication between the provider managed server and the user device and generates a backend rule that is applicable to communication between the provider managed server and the traffic midpoint device. The global managed generates a backend function-level instruction including a reference to an actor-set authorized to communicate with the provider managed server to use the service. The global manager sends the backend function-level instruction to the provider managed server to configure the provider managed server to enforce the backend rule on communication with the actor-set including the traffic midpoint device. |
