Configuring the proxy server connection

Proxy server connection settings are used for updating databases, activating the application, and external services.

If you are using NGINX as your proxy server, you must configure the client_max_body_size setting: the value of the client_max_body_size setting must be equal to the maximum size of object that Kaspersky Endpoint Security can send for processing to the Kaspersky Sandbox application. Otherwise NGINX will block objects that go above the specified value. The default value is 1 MB.

To configure proxy server connection settings:

1. In the main window of Web Console, go to the Devices → Policies & profiles section.
2. Click the name of the Kaspersky Endpoint Security policy.
3. Go to the Application settings tab.
4. Select the General settings section.
5. Click Network settings.
6. Under Proxy server settings, select one of the following options:
   • Use proxy server.

     If you select this option, configure the connection to the proxy server by entering the proxy server address and port.

   • Automatically detect proxy server settings.

     If you select this option, you cannot modify proxy server settings.

7. If you want to enable authentication on the proxy server, select the Use proxy server authentication check box and enter your user account credentials.
8. If you want to disable proxy server use when updating databases and application modules from a shared folder, select the Bypass proxy server for local addresses check box.
9. Save your changes.

Proxy server connection settings are configured.
