On Proxy settings

Usage and Config Platform

(imported topic written by cye91)

I heard that the recent versions can support that clients can directly connect to bes server by proxy without any settings on client and server.A Client connected to Relay before,and now I want it to connect to the bes server by proxy.In order to achieve this goal,I updated the version to the most newest version 7.2.4.60 both on server and client,but cound not connect to the server.I even shutted down the relay service,but it failed.

I don’t know how the Proxy works on bigfix well ,so I want more information about it.

Looking forward to your answer!

For 7.2.4 agents, do the following:

Enable proxy autodetect (this will cause the agent to pull the automatic proxy configuration from IE for the current user instead of using the ProxyServer setting):

_BESClient_Comm_ProxyAutoDetect = 1

Set agent to try directly connecting if proxy fails:

_BESClient_Comm_ProxyAutoDetectTryDirect = 1
