Configuring proxy settings

If you are using platform services or Cloud Storage Pools, you can configure a non-transparent proxy to connect to external endpoints. For example you might need a non-transparent proxy to allow platform services messages to be sent to external endpoints, such as an endpoint on the internet.

Before you begin

You must have specific access permissions. For details, see information about controlling system access with administration user accounts and groups.
You must be signed in to the Grid Manager using a supported browser.

About this task

You can configure the settings for a single proxy.

Steps

Select Configuration > Proxy Settings.
The Proxy Settings page appears.
Select the protocol for the non-transparent proxy.
Enter the hostname or IP address of the proxy server.
Optionally, enter the port used to connect to the proxy server.
You can leave this field blank if you use the default port for the protocol: 80 for HTTP or 1080 for SOCKS5.
Click Save.
After the proxy is saved, new endpoints for platform services or Cloud Storage Pools can be configured and tested.
Note: Proxy changes can take up to 10 minutes to take effect.
If you need to reset the proxy, click Clear.
