Network Proxy settings
If your local IT network uses proxy server(s) for HTTP, HTTPS, or FTP
communication, you must configure the
Network Proxy
settings of the
netFIELD OS accordingly.
Note:
To ensure that the device will be able to communicate with the
cloud, we strongly recommend you to configure the proxy settings
before
onboarding
your device. The local proxy settings of the
device will be transferred to the netFIELD Portal during onboarding
and will be stored there.
The container images that you then deploy from the Portal can thus
take over these proxy settings and use them for their own
communication when they run on the device after their deployment.
Note also that if you change the proxy settings locally on your
device
after onboarding
, you must “synchronize” the settings with
the netFIELD Portal in order to keep the settings there “up-to-
date” (to synchronize, open the
Onboarding
page in the Local
Device Manager, then click
Synchronize
button).
You can find the
Network Proxy
settings on the
Networking
page.
Figure 39: Network Proxy configuration
The
Network Proxy
table shows the current Proxy server settings of your
netFIELD OS. The protocols for which a Proxy server is being used are
listed in the
Proxy
column, the
Host
column shows the IP address or host
name of the corresponding proxy server and the
Port
column shows the
port number that the proxy server uses for the protocol.
The
No Proxy
entries designate destinations that shall not be addressed
via Proxy server.
