Oracle iPlanet Web Proxy Server 4.0.14 Administration Guide

ProcedureTo manually generate a PAC file from a PAT file

The PAC file can be generated only from the master proxy.

  1. Access the Server Manager of the master proxy, and click the Caching tab.

  2. Click the Configure Proxy Array link.

    The Configure Proxy Array page is displayed.

  3. Click the Generate PAC button.

    The PAC Generation page is displayed.

  4. If you want to use custom logic in your PAC file, type the name of the file containing the customized logic you would like to include in the generation of your PAC file in the Custom logic file field.

    This logic is inserted before the proxy array selection logic in the FindProxyForURL function. This function is typically used for local requests which need not go through the proxy array.

    If you have already provided the custom logic file when configuring the proxy array member, this field will be populated with that information. You may edit the custom logic file name here.

  5. In the Default Route field, type the route a client should take if the proxies in the array are not available.

    If you have already provided the default route when configuring a proxy array member, this field will be populated with that information. You may edit the default route here.

  6. Click OK.

  7. Click Restart Required.

    The Apply Changes page is displayed.

  8. Click the Restart Proxy Server button to apply the changes.
