To allow the outbound HTTP and HTTPS requests sent by webMethods API Gateway to
bypass a particular proxy, you must add the proxy to the Proxy Bypass list.
About this task
If you are using proxy servers for outbound HTTP or HTTPS requests, you can optionally
route selected requests directly to their target servers, bypassing the proxy servers listed in the
outbound proxies list. For information on outbound proxies, see Configuring proxy server alias.
The HTTP and HTTPS requests sent from webMethods API Gateway to
remote servers are not directed through the proxies added in the Proxy Bypass
screen.
Procedure
-
Expand the menu options and select Administration.
-
Select General > Proxy Bypass.
-
In the Addresses field, provide the host name or IP of the proxy server
that the HTTP and HTTPS requests must bypass.
You can type the fully qualified host and domain name of each server to which you want the
webMethods API Gateway to
issue requests directly. Type the host name or the domain name exactly as they appear in the URLs
that the server uses. To enter multiple names, separate each with commas. You can use the asterisk
(*) to identify several servers with similar names. The asterisk matches any number of characters.
For example, if you want to bypass requests made to localhost, www.yahoo.com, home.microsoft.com,
and all hosts whose names begin with NYC, you would type:
localhost,www.yahoo.com,home.microsoft.com, NYC*.*
