Configuring Upstream Proxy in Admin Console
Traffic redirection to an upstream proxy is configured under UserGate ➜ Settings ➜ Upstream Proxy:
Specify the operation mode (HTTP(S) or SOCKS5), IP address, and port for the upstream proxy. If the proxy requires authentication, specify the login and password.
Both UserGate license activation and software update via an external proxy are configured identically. The configuration can be done in the Dashboard's License section or under Settings ➜ Device management. The settings configured in one of these sections will be displayed in the other one.
Dashboard settings:
Go to Dashboard ➜ License and click the registration line. In the activation window, click the upstream proxy configuration line.
In the pop-up settings window specify the IP address and port for the external HTTP proxy. If the external proxy requires authentication, you need to specify the login and password.
Device management settings:
Go to UserGate ➜ Device management ➜ Server Operations and click Configure to configure an upstream proxy for license and update checks.
In the pop-up settings window specify the IP address and port for the external HTTP proxy. If the external proxy requires authentication, you need to specify the login and password.
