HTTP Proxy Configuration

In order to use an Appliance with via a HTTP proxy  the following configuration should be completed.

Setting up config before registration

Run the command

sudo vi /opt/communication/http-proxy.conf


This will present you with the current configured settings

PROXY_ENABLED=false
PROXY_HOSTNAME=
PROXY_PORT=
PROXY_USERNAME=
PROXY_PASSWORD=


Update the fields with the desired values and save the file.

For example

PROXY_ENABLED=true
PROXY_HOSTNAME=192.168.0.36
PROXY_PORT=3128
PROXY_USERNAME=USERNAME if required

If the appliance was registered prior to this configuration change, then the following commands should be run after the config file has been updated and saved.

sudo /opt/communication/start-communication-layer.sh true
sudo systemctl restart iqas
