Configuring Proxy Settings for Component/License Updates, Cloud Services, and Syslog Forwarding

Apex Central allows you to use a proxy server for component/license updates, cloud services, and syslog forwarding.

Note:

You can also use the same proxy server for syslog forwarding if you select a SOCKS protocol for the server. Syslog forwarding does not support HTTP protocol proxy servers.

For more information, see Configuring Syslog Forwarding.

  1. Go to Administration > Settings > Proxy Settings.

    The Proxy Settings screen appears.

  2. Select Use a proxy server for component/license updates and cloud services connectivity.
  3. Select the protocol:
    Note:

    Syslog forwarding does not support HTTP proxy servers. To use a proxy server for syslog forwarding, select a SOCKS protocol.

    • HTTP

    • SOCKS 4

    • SOCKS 5

  4. Type the host name or IP address of the server in the Server name or IP address field.
  5. Type a port number in the Port field.
  6. Type a user name and password if your server requires authentication.
