Configuring the Internet Proxy
When using a proxy server for outbound requests from on-premises Integration Server to IBM webMethods Integration, you may need to configure the following on the proxy server:
- Whitelist entries. If IBM webMethods Integration the proxy server
employs a whitelist of allowed URLs, you need to add the URL for . A URL for the IBM webMethods Integration uses the following
format:
- https://softwareag-education.webmethodscloud.com or
- https://sample.prod-int-aws-us.webmethods.io
For more information about specifying whitelist entries for an Internet proxy, refer to the documentation for the Internet proxy used by your company.
For information on specific IP addresses to whitelist, refer to the documentation of the respective IBM webMethods Integration products.
- Tunneling with HTTP CONNECT. To ensure end-to-end encryption for TLS over HTTPS, configure the Internet proxy to accept the HTTP CONNECT method. If the Internet proxy does not accept the HTTP CONNECT, a connection from the on-premises Integration Server to IBM webMethods Integration through the proxy server can still be established but end-to-end encryption with TLS will not be provided.
- Long running HTTP connections. Configure the proxy server to be friendly to long running HTTP 1.0 and 1.1 connections. This may improve performance and limit latencies.
