Appendix A Accessing App Net Manager or Gateway Viewer from Behind a Proxy Server

If your Corente Virtual Services Gateway is operating behind a proxy server, you must make sure that all Corente network users on your network change their web browser's settings to bypass the proxy server for local addresses and to specifically exclude the LAN IP address of the Corente Gateway.

This must be done for every computer that will have access to the Location gateway.

For example, if you are using Internet Explorer 6.0:

  1. Go to the Tools menu and select Internet Options.

  2. Select the Connections tab at the top of the window and click the LAN Settings button when it appears.

  3. On this screen, make sure the Use a proxy server checkbox is checked. Fill in the IP Address and port fields for the proxy server and then make sure the Bypass proxy server for local addresses checkbox is checked.

  4. Select the Advanced button in this Proxy Server section and add the LAN IP Address of your Location gateway to the Exceptions list.

  5. Click OK on all screens to save these settings.

Important

Traffic destined for admin.corente.com (App Net Manager) should not be routed to the proxy server, either. If you need to access the App Net Manager application from any computer behind your proxy server, you must perform this same procedure to add the URL admin.corente.com to the proxy Exceptions list in your web browser.
