Instructions

By default, using the CloudBoost appliance in an environment configured with a proxy server sends all traffic out of the CloudBoost through the proxy. Certain targets can be excluded from going through the proxy using the 'http-proxy exclude' command.
 
Note: Before using this command, be prepared with the IP address and the prefix size of the subnet mask for the targets to be excluded.
 
Examples of using the 'http-proxy' command depend on what kind of setup and exclusions are being entered.
 
  • Set a proxy and have all egress traffic go through the proxy:
    http-proxy <host:port>
    Ex: http-proxy proxy.dell.com:8080
  • Reset the http-proxy setting back to default:
    http-proxy reset
  • Set a proxy and have all egress traffic go through the proxy except for a single specified target:
    http-proxy <host:port> exclude <ip>/<prefix>
    • For this example, the proxy is proxy.dell.com:8080 and the target to exclude is at 10.10.10.10 on subnet mask 255.255.255.0:
      http-proxy proxy.dell.com:8080 exclude 10.10.10.10/24
  • Set a proxy and have all egress traffic go through the proxy except for any target on a certain IP subnet:
    http-proxy <host:port> exclude <ip>/<prefix>
    • For this example, the proxy is proxy.dell.com:8080 and the targets to exclude are at 10.10.10.0 on subnet mask 255.255.255.0:
      http-proxy proxy.dell.com:8080 exclude 10.10.10.0/24
  • Set a proxy and have all egress traffic go through the proxy except for a specified target and any target on a certain IP subnet:
    http-proxy <host:port> exclude <ip>/<prefix>,<ip>/<prefix>
    • For this example, the proxy is proxy.dell.com:8080 and the targets to exclude are at 10.10.10.0 on subnet mask 255.255.255.0 and the single target is 10.20.20.20 on subnet mask 255.255.254.0:
      http-proxy proxy.dell.com:8080 exclude 10.10.10.0/24,10.20.20.20/23
 
To add multiple exclusions, add a comma (,) between each excluded target.
