Configuration steps to authenticate the client to a proxy (proxy
authentication).
-
Add an HTTP authenticate entry to fglprofile.
To connect via a proxy with HTTP Proxy Authentication, it is necessary to define the client
login and password as registered on the HTTP proxy.
The following two entries must be defined with
an unique identifier (
proxyauth for our example) to define a HTTP Proxy Authentication with
myapplication as login and
mypassword as
password:
authenticate.proxyauth.login = "myapplication"
authenticate.proxyauth.password = "mypassword"
See
RFC 2617 for
more details.
-
For proxy authentication, an entry must be made to the HTTP proxy configuration in order to
authenticate a client.
To authenticate a client known as
myapplication and with
mypassword as password by
the HTTP Proxy, add the following entry to the HTTP proxy
configuration:
proxy.http.authenticate = "proxyauth"
Note: To authenticate the client to a HTTPS proxy, replace http with
https.
