Verifying Proxy connectivity post-installation can help determine whether your installation was successful.
Procedure
Navigate to.
Select Test Connection.
The page displays version info, connectivity through HTTP/S, and certificate chain validation.
Results
If you are an on-premises customer and your Workspace ONE UEM console server is installed on the internal network, then you may see fail connection for the
Console To line items. This expected behavior occurs when the Console server does not have access to the front-end server in the DMZ and does not affect functionality.
Proxy tunneling – FIREHOUSE Software
Proxy tunneling via the HTTP CONNECT method lets a user who accesses the Internet through a proxy server connect to FH Web Edition servers on the Internet when the following conditions are met:
The user runs the FH Web Edition client on a Windows computer.
The address and port of the proxy server are stored under the client computer’s Internet options.
The proxy server is configured to allow HTTP CONNECT method tunnels to the port on which the FH Web Edition server is configured to accept RapidX Protocol (RXP) connections.
When users on Windows computers are unable to establish a direct connection to a FH Web Edition server, and when the client computer is configured through its Internet options to use a proxy server, FH Web Edition attempts to establish an HTTP CONNECT method tunnel to the FH Web Edition server.
Specifically, the client:
Connects to the proxy server using the address and port specified in the client computer’s Internet options.
Sends a CONNECT request to the proxy server:
Example: CONNECT address:port HTTP/1. 0, where address and port are respectively the IP address of the FH Web Edition server, and the port on which the server accepts RXP connections (by default, 491).
Reads the reply from the proxy server.
Responds to the proxy server’s reply as follows:If basic authentication is required, FH Web Edition prompts users for their user name and password, and then repeats step 2, this time providing the user’s the request failed, FH Web Edition displays the following message:Failed to connect to serverAddress via the proxy server at proxyAddress: [reason for failure] the request succeeded, FH Web Edition initializes the RXP connection and starts the session.

You can find the proxy settings applicable to your machine and use them to set up Local Testing connections.
Introduction
A proxy server sits between your machine and your ISP. In most organizations, proxies are configured
by network admins to filter and/or monitor inbound and outbound web traffic from employee computers.
In this article, we’ll show you how to view proxy settings (if your computer is behind a proxy server).
You can then use the information to set up Local Testing connections with BrowserStack..
Find Proxy Settings in Windows
In most cases, browsers will use proxy settings that are set on the computer. However, each browser has a
settings page to configure proxy settings as well.
There are two ways to find proxy settings in Windows: via the Settings app (Windows 10 only) or via the
Control Panel.
Using the Settings App (Windows 10) to find proxy settings
Click on Start, then click on the gear icon (Settings) at the far left.
In the Windows Settings menu, click on Network & Internet.
In the left pane, click on Proxy.
Here you have all the settings that are related to setting up a proxy in Windows. It’s split into
two configurations: Automatic or Manual proxy setup.
Using the configuration details to set up Local Testing connection:
If “Use setup script“ is enabled, it means that you have configured PAC proxy on your system. You
can obtain the path to PAC file from the “Script Address“ section.
Note: To set up a Local Testing connection using the PAC file, you need to ensure that the PAC file is stored on your computer and path needs to an absolute path to that file.
If “Manual proxy setup” is enabled, you can simply obtain Proxy Host and Port from the “Address“
and “Port“ section.
For Local Testing to work correctly, you need to bypass the traffic for – – from your
proxy. You can do this by adding an entry in the Proxy Exception> text field in the
“Manual proxy setup” section.
Using Control Panel (all Windows versions) to find proxy settings
In any Windows version, you can find the proxy settings via the Control Panel on your computer.
Click on Start and open the Control Panel. Then click on
Internet Options.
In the Internet Options, go to Connections > LAN settings.
Here you have all the settings that are related to setting up a proxy in Windows. It’s basically
split into two configurations: either Automatic configuration or
Proxy Server setup.
If “Use automatic configuration script“ iis checked, it means that you have configured PAC proxy
in your system. You can obtain the path to PAC file from the “Script Address“ section.
If “Use a proxy server for your LAN” is checked, you can obtain Proxy Host and Port from the
“Address“ and “Port“ section.
proxy. You can do this by clicking the “Advanced“ button and adding an entry in the
“Do not use proxy server for addresses beginning with:“ text field.
Find Proxy Settings in OS X
On OS X, you have to view the proxy settings in System Preferences. This is where most browsers check automatically. However, each browser has a settings page to configure proxy settings as well.
Open System Preferences and click on Network.
On the left-hand side, click on an active network connection. Note that you can have different proxy settings for different network connections. Click on the Advanced button on the bottom right.
Click on the Proxies tab and you’ll see a list of proxy protocols you can configure.
If “Automatic Proxy Configuration“ is checked, it means that you have configured PAC proxy in your system. You can obtain the path to PAC file from the “Script Address“ section.
If “Web Proxy (HTTP)” or “Secure Web Proxy (HTTPS)“ is checked, you can simply obtain Proxy Host, Port, Username, and Password.
For Local Testing to work correctly, you need to bypass the traffic for – – from your proxy. You can do this by adding an entry in the ”Bypass proxy settings for these Hosts & Domains” text field.
Connection duration and disconnection
In Linux, finding your proxy settings will depend on what distribution you are running. Mostly, the procedure would be similar for the various distributions.
On Ubuntu, open on System Settings from the launcher and scroll down to Hardware. Click on Network.
Click on Network Proxy, you can choose from Automatic or Manual.
If the “Automatic“ option is selected, it means that you have configured PAC proxy in your system. You can obtain the path to PAC file from the “Configuration URL“ section.
If the “Manual“ option is selected, you can simply obtain Proxy Host and Port from the appropriate section.
For Local Testing to work correctly, you need to bypass the traffic for – – from your proxy. You can do this by using the command-line interface as follows:
To change proxy exceptions, use ‘set’ option with ‘gsettings’ command as follows.
$ gsettings set ignore-hosts “[‘localhost’, ”, ‘::1’]”
If access to the above sections is restricted on your computer, you can seek help from your IT/Network Team to gather this information.
