3.5.2 Configuring Network Proxies
The Network Proxy Configuration tool lets you configure how your system connects
to the Internet. You can configure the desktop to connect to a proxy server and specify
the details of the server. A proxy server is a server that intercepts requests to another
server and fulfills the request itself, if it can. You can specify the Domain Name Service
(DNS) name or the Internet Protocol (IP) address of the proxy server. A DNS name is
a unique alphabetic identifier for a computer on a network. An IP address is a unique
numeric identifier for a computer on a network.
Click Computer > Control Center > System > Network Proxy.
