Configuring the Proxy Settings on Windows
If your organization uses an outgoing proxy server to connect to the internet, the Secure Agent connects to Informatica Cloud through the proxy server. You must enable the proxy server through the ProxySettings.ini file and the Secure Agent Manager.
Perform the following steps to enable proxy server through the Secure Agent Manager:
1. Click Start > All Program > Informatica Cloud Secure Agent > Informatica Cloud Secure Agent to launch the Secure Agent Manager.
You can also click the Informatica Cloud icon in the Windows taskbar notification area to open the Secure Agent Manager.
The Secure Agent Manager displays the Secure Agent status.
2. Click Proxy in the Secure Agent Manager page.
3. Click Use a Proxy Server to enter proxy server settings.
4. Configure the following proxy server details:
Field | Description |
---|
Proxy Host | Required. Host name of the outgoing proxy server that the Secure Agent uses. |
Proxy Port | Required. Port number of the outgoing proxy server. |
User Name | User name to connect to the outgoing proxy server. |
Password | Password to connect to the outgoing proxy server. |
5. Click OK.
The Secure Agent Manager restarts the Secure Agent to apply the settings.
6. Perform the following steps to enable the proxy server flag in the ProxySettings.ini file:
Note: The Secure Agent creates the ProxySettings.ini file when you test the connection.
- a. Copy the ProxySettings.ini file from <Secure Agent installation directory>\downloads\<latest connector package>\package\plugins\Cvent\ to <Secure Agent installation directory>\apps\Data_Integration_Server\ext\deploy_to_main\bin\rdtm-extra\Cvent\
Note: If the deploy_to_main\bin\rdtm-extra\Cvent\ directory does not already exist, create the directory.
Note: The folder name is case sensitive on Linux.
- b. Restart the Secure Agent.
- c. Set the value of the setProxy field to true to enable the proxy. By default, the value is false.
