Adding a Web Proxy

If you opted not to define a web proxy during the installation procedure, you can add one by the following procedure.

To Add a Web Proxy

1. As root, on the i-Planet gateway, modify the file /opt/SUNWsnrp/config/ReverseProxy.config so that the line Proxy= reads Proxy=fully_qualified_name_of_web_proxy_machine:port_number, if the port number is required.

You can also use this procedure to change the web proxy. For example, if you want to change the webproxy2.corp.company.com as the web proxy and you want to use port from 8000 to 8080. Change the line Proxy= in the file /opt/SUNWsnrp/config/ReverseProxy.config to Proxy=webproxy2.eng.company.com:8080.

The line in the file should now look like the following:

Proxy=webproxy2.corp.company.com:8080
