Configure Proxy Server

If the VPC hosting GigaVUE-FM does not have Internet access, GigaVUE-FM cannot reach AWS public API endpoints. You need to configure a proxy server to enable access.

Prerequisite: The fm_super_admin role or write access to the Infrastructure Management category.

To configure a proxy server,

1. Go to Inventory > VIRTUAL > AWS, and then select Settings.
2. From the Settings drop-down list, select Proxy Server Configuration.
3. Select Add. The Configure Proxy Server page is displayed.
   
4. On the page, enter the following details:
   1. In the Alias field, enter the name for the proxy server.
   2. In the Host field, enter the hostname or IP address of the proxy server.
   3. In the Port field, enter the port number the proxy server uses for connecting to the Internet(0–65535).
   4. (Optional) In the Username field, enter the proxy server username.
   5. In the Password field, enter the password for the proxy server.
5. (Optional) To use NTLM authentication, perform the following:
   • Select the NTLM checkbox.
   • Enter the Domain name of the client accessing the proxy server.
   • Enter the Workstation name or the computer accessing the proxy server.
6. Select Save.

The new proxy server configuration appears on the Proxy Server Configuration and AWS Connection pages.
