A new Proxy Server profile can also be created from the Inline SSL app configuration page by using the 'Create Proxy' button. The created Proxy Server profiles will be listed and managed under the Proxy Server Configuration page.

The configured Proxy profile is maintained in GigaVUE-FM and is not attached to a node until explicitly done so through an Inline SSL deployment. A unique alias can be used to reuse and attach a proxy server profile configuration to multiple nodes.
