When internal services in P6 EPPM need to access external web sites, they may need to go through your organization's firewall. You can configure that capability in the Web Proxy settings. P6 uses web proxy settings when it displays Contract Manager portlets that integrate with a Fusion server and when it connects to a Geo Code Provider server.
To set your web proxy settings:
- Open the Primavera P6 Administrator.
- In the Configurations drop-down list, select your configuration.
- In the sidebar select Client Properties.
HTTP Server And Port Override: The HTTP front-end web server and port that P6 clients should use. Use URL format: http[s]://servername[:port], do not include context root. This setting is only necessary if problems are encountered while using a front-end web server proxy.
