Appendix A - Proxy Support
If your computer uses a proxy server to access the internet, the correct proxy information will need to
be configured in K.
If the K client application cannot connect to the internet you will see the following error
message:
If the computer that the Defender Basic+ is connected to uses a proxy server to access the internet,
click on the
Yes
button. K will try to read the proxy server information from the computer’s
configuration.
•
If K is able to determine your proxy server’s address and no authentication is required
then K will read this information and connect to the internet as normal.
•
If K is able to determine your proxy server’s address but the proxy requires authentication
then you will need to enter your credentials in the window that appears.
•
If K is unable to determine your proxy server’s address then you will need to enter the
proxy server address, proxy type and credentials:
Enter the proxy address and the port to connect to in the address field (e.g. 192.168.0.193:8080 or
proxycomp:8080). Select your proxy type and then enter your credentials. If K is able
to connect to the proxy server using those credentials then the authentication information is saved
in an encrypted proxy settings file on the host computer.
Note:
Proxy information must be configured once for each computer the Defender Basic+ is connected
to that connects to the internet through a proxy server.
