assistance.

5.
Open a web browser and try to access any external web page (for example,
https://
www.extron.com
).
6.
When prompted, enter your username and password.
If the username or password are NOT correct, you will receive an error message.
If this happens, confirm your username/password with the proxy administrator.
If your username and password are correct, you will be allowed to access the site.
You may also receive a message like This site is blocked by the proxy. This means your
username and password are correct, but you have tried to access a site that is explicitly
blocked by the proxy server.
7.
Once you have confirmed your username and password are correct, you should try to
access the domain for the calendar server used by the TLS. For example, if you are
using Microsoft’s Office 365, then use your web browser to open
https://outlook.
office365.com
.
If you get a message that this site it blocked, you should contact your proxy
administrator.
