Specific settings and troubleshooting

Terminal FTP clients (such as the
ftp
command in
Windows
or
Linux
) do not allow config-
uration of the proxy server. For this reason, they cannot be used for our purposes.
2.
To connect to FTP servers, the proxy server uses the passive FTP mode. If FTP server is
protected by a firewall which does not support FTP (this is not a problem of
WinRoute
), it
is not possible to use proxy to connect to the server.
3.
Setting of FTP mode in the client is irrelevant for usage of the proxy server. Only one
network connection used by the FTP protocol is always established between a client and
the proxy server.
Note:
It is recommended to use FTP over proxy server only in cases where it is not possible to
connect directly to the Internet (see chapter
).
Example of a client configuration: web browser
Web browsers allow to set the proxy server either globally or for individual protocols. In our
example, configuration of
Internet Explorer 6.0
focused (configuration of any other browsers
is almost identical).
1.
In the browser’s main menu, select
Tools
→
Internet Options
, open the
Connections
tab and
click on the
LAN Settings
option.
2.
Enable the
Use a proxy server for your LAN
option and enter the IP address and port of the
proxy server. IP address of the proxy server is the address of the
WinRoute’s
host interface
which is connected to the local network; the default port of the proxy server is
3128
(for
details, refer to chapter
). It is also recommended to enable the
Bypass proxy server for
local addresses
option — using proxy server for local addresses would slow down traffic
and overburden
WinRoute
.
