Proxy Server Configuration for Use with Virtual KVM Client (VKC) and Active KVM Client (AKC)

When the use of a Proxy Server is required, a SOCKS proxy must also be provided and configured on the remote client PC.

Note: If the installed proxy server is only capable of the HTTP proxy protocol, you cannot connect.

  1. On the remote client PC, select Control Panel > Internet Options.
    1. On the Connections tab, click 'LAN settings'. The Local Area Network (LAN) Settings dialog opens.
    2. Select 'Use a proxy server for your LAN'.
    3. Click Advanced. The Proxy Settings dialog opens.
    4. Configure the proxy servers for all protocols.

      IMPORTANT: Do not select 'Use the same proxy server for all protocols'.

      Note: The default port for a SOCKS proxy (1080) is different from HTTP proxy (3128).

    5. Click OK at each dialog to apply the settings.
  2. Next, configure the proxy settings for the Java applets:
    1. Select Control Panel > Java.
    2. On the General tab, click Network Settings. The Network Settings dialog opens.
    3. Select "Use Proxy Server".
    4. Click Advanced. The Advanced Network Settings dialog opens.
    5. Configure the proxy servers for all protocols.

      IMPORTANT: Do not select 'Use the same proxy server for all protocols'.

      Note: The default port for a SOCKS proxy (1080) is different from HTTP proxy (3128).
