Routing through a SOCKS Server

If you already have a remote SOCKS server running on your network, you can configure the proxy to connect to it for specific resources.

Steps

1. Access the Server Manager and click the Routing tab.

2. Click the Set Routing Preferences link.

   The Set Routing Preferences page displays.

3. Select the resource from the drop-down list or click the Regular Expression button, enter a regular expression and click OK.

4. Select the Route Through option in the Routing Through Another Proxy section of the page.

5. Select the Route Through SOCKS Server option.

7. Click OK.

   Note –

   Once you have enabling routing through a SOCKS server, you should create proxy routes using the SOCKS v5 Routing page. Proxy routes identify the IP addresses that are accessible through the SOCKS server your proxy routes through. They also specify whether that SOCKS server connects directly to the host.
