- Select the Configure Meta-data action and apply settings listed in the following tables as needed
Table 1. Metadata options to configure the proxy to make a connection through a boundary or passthru proxy
Setting | Description |
|---|
passthru_host | The host name of the pass through proxy. |
passthru_port | The port of the pass through proxy. |
passthru_ntlm_domain | The NT LAN Manager(NTLM) Windows domain and user of the boundary proxy in order to authenticate the user against an NTLM domain. |
passthru_realm | Optional. If a user name and password are needed for the proxy. specify the proxy realm so that the credentials are not sent to any proxy. If you do not specify a realm, any realm is accepted and used for the proxy. |
passthru_username | Optional. The user name for the proxy |
passthru_password | Optional. The password for the proxy |
passthru_nonProxyHosts | Optional. Indicates which host should be connected directly and not through the passthru-proxy. The value can be a list of hosts, separated by a | character. A wildcard character(*) can be used for matching. Ex. localhost|*.local |
Table 2. Metadata options use to control how outbound connections are used
Setting | Description |

socket-timeout | The default socket timeout in milliseconds. The socket timeout defines the length of time the proxy server waits for data after successfully establishing a connection with the target server. The default value is 30,000 milliseconds (30 seconds). A timeout value of zero is interpreted as an infinite timeout. |
retries | The number of retries to be performed if the proxy could not establish a connection with the target server. The default value is two retries. |
max-connections-per-host | The number of HTTP connections the proxy can open to connect to a specific host. The default value is 5 connections per host. |
max-total-connections | The maximum number of HTTP connections that the proxy can open to connect to arbitrary target hosts. The default value is 100 connections. |
unsigned_ssl_certificate_support | If this parameter is set to true, the proxy connects to any HTTPS URL allowed by the proxy, regardless of whether or not it trusts the specified host. The default and recommended setting is false. |
