Proxy fields

Use proxy server

Select this option to specify that a proxy server is used to access the Internet. This is relevant for the following situations:

  • You want to connect to cloud devices defined in AFA (such as AWS or Azure) via a proxy server.
  • You want to validate your AFA "Online" license via a proxy server. Defining the proxy server enables AFA to access the license server.
  • You want to route traffic through your proxy as part of the HTTPS tunnel to AlgoSec Cloud products (ObjectFlowand AlgoSec Cloud). See Troubleshoot AlgoSec SaaS HTTPS tunnel.

Note: This only applies if you received an "Online" license from AlgoSec.

Note: Only one proxy server can be defined.
