SSLProxyHost

interface

Not specified

Purpose

The SSLProxyHost parameter specifies the network name or Internet Protocol (IP) address of the proxy host. If your JADE thin client is behind a firewall, your network administrator may require connections to the Internet to be done through a proxy.

This parameter and the SSLProxyPort parameter together allow SSL tunneling through the specified Web proxy host and port.

If SSL has been enabled and the presentation client needs to connect to the application server via a proxy host, the presentation client will attempt to connect to the proxy server using the same protocol (transport‑type) as that specified in the AppServer parameter configuration. How the proxy host handles TCP/IP version 6 is dependent on the proxy host implementation. The areas to check and to test with the proxy host are as follows.

1. Will it accept an IP version 6 connection?

2. What protocol will it use between the proxy and the application server?

For more details, see "Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) Security", in Chapter 2 of the JADE Object Manager Guide.
