Using System Proxy in Interactive Mode

After logging on to the Gateway user interface in interactive mode, you can access system proxy by selecting 3.

To use system proxy forwarding:

  1. From the main menu, click 3.

    The system proxy menu is displayed:

    1) Host:Port Not set

    2) Credentials Not set

    [#] Edit an item

    [r] Remove proxy from system

    [s] Save proxy to system

    [q] Return without making changes

    Choose an option:

    You can configure the Gateway so all outbound traffic back to Oracle is sent through a proxy server. The current proxy settings are displayed in the menu.

    You can:

    • Set a proxy with just a host and port;

    • Set a username and password (you must provide both a username and password);

    • Update or remove all the proxy settings from the Gateway.

  2. (Optional) Click 1 to enter a valid IP address and port for the proxy server. Host names are not accepted. The updated settings are reflected on the main menu but are not yet written to the system.

  3. (Optional) Click 2 to enter a username and password to use for the proxy server. If no host and port have been set, you are prompted for those first. The updated settings are reflected on the main menu but are not yet written to the system.

  4. (Optional) Click r to remove the proxy from the system.

    All proxy settings are immediately removed from the Gateway.

  5. (Optional) Click s to save the proxy to the system.

    All current proxy settings are written to the system.

  6. (Optional) Click q to return without making changes.

    You quit back to the main menu and discard any changes that may have been made.
