Specifying Web Proxy Servers

You can direct all Web requests to a Web proxy rather than using the system to connect directly to Web servers. This feature can be useful if your network security policy requires this configuration or if you want to use a caching Web proxy to improve performance.

To specify servers for Web proxy resource policies:

1.In the admin console, choose Users > Resource Policies > Web.

2.If your administrator view is not already configured to show Web proxy policies, make the following modifications:

  1. Click the Customize button in the upper right corner of the page.
  2. Select the Web Proxy check box.
  3. Select the Servers check box below the Web Proxy check box.
  4. Click OK.

3.Select the Web Proxy > Servers tab.

4.Under Web Proxy Servers, enter the name or IP address of the Web proxy server and the port number at which the proxy server listens, and then click Add.

5.Repeat this step to specify additional Web proxy servers.
