Crawl a remote portal site

Configure Portal Search to crawl and index a remote, public portal site.

You can enable search on other portal sites. However, only the public pages of other portals can be searched.

To have Portal Search crawl and index a public portal site, proceed as follows:

  1. Create a new content source using the Manage Search portlet.

  2. Select Web site from the pull-down menu.

  3. Enter the URL of the portal site that you want to make available for search by users.

When you start the crawl, the public portion of the portal site is crawled. The search collection will only contain public pages.
