Proxy Server

On the Proxy Server tab, you configure advanced proxy server settings for systems that run in tight security networks that need to control outbound traffic or in other situations that call for controlling traffic (inbound or outbound).

You might use a proxy server in your environment if you need to control Tomcat access to outside URLs. For example, when SBM Orchestration Engine makes Web service calls to outside URLs as part of an orchestration workflow, the SBM Orchestration Engine connects to the outside URL via the proxy server that you specify.

Provide the following information for HTTP/HTTPS proxy connections:

Field	Description
Host	Enter the proxy server's host name.
Port	Enter the port number for the proxy server.
User name	Enter a user account name that has access to connect to your proxy server.
Password	Enter the user's password.

In the Non-proxy hosts section, you can skip proxy connections for servers that host the SBM components and or other hosts as needed. Note the following:

Each host that you define on the Component Servers tab is automatically added to the Skip proxy for SBM component hosts list and selected by default.
To enforce proxy connection for an SBM host, clear the check box next to the host name.
Use the Add and Remove buttons to specify other server host names that can be accessed directly without going through the proxy server.

Note: If you use an HTTPS connection to a proxy server with SBM, you must enable HTTPS tunneling in your proxy server's configuration settings. Refer to your proxy server's documentation for assistance with enabling HTTPS tunneling.
