Bypassing a Proxy Server

Users who are granted Administrator access privileges should not connect to the Mobile Server through a proxy server. The Mobile Server will not be able to see the IP addresses of their client machines and, therefore, will not be able to allow them Administrator-level access.

Users who have Administrator access and usually connect to the network through a proxy server must bypass the proxy server before connecting to the Mobile Server.

To configuring the client machine to bypass a proxy server, follow these steps:

1. In Internet Explorer, from the Tools dropdown menu, select Internet Options. The Internet Options dialog box appears.

2. Select the Connections tab. The Connections panel appears, as illustrated in Figure F-1.

1. Click the LAN Settings button in the Connections panel. The Local Area Network (LAN) Settings dialog box appears, as illustrated in Figure F-2.

2. Select the "Bypass proxy server for local addresses" check box.

3. Click the Advanced button. The Proxy Settings dialog box appears, as shown in Figure F-3.

4. In the Exceptions section, in the field under "Do not use proxy server for addresses beginning with:", enter the IP addresses of the client machines for the accounts that have Administrator access, as illustrated in Figure F-3.

5. Click OK.
