Adding a Proxy Bypass

About this task

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.

To add a proxy bypass

Expand the menu options icon , in the title bar, 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*.*
```
Click Add.
The specified proxy server is displayed in the Addresses list.
Click Save.
The list is saved.
