Configuring the proxy server settings

To configure the proxy server settings, perform the following steps:

  1. Perform the following steps in the Management Console tree:
    • If you want to configure the connection to a proxy server for an unassigned Security Server, maximize the node of the relevant Security Server.
    • To configure the connection to a proxy server for Security Servers belonging to a profile, maximize the Profiles node and inside it maximize the node of the profile for whose Security Servers you want to configure the connection to a proxy server.
  2. Select the Settings node.
  3. Select the Use a proxy server to access KSN, Enforced Anti-Spam Updates Service, and Kaspersky Lab activation servers check box if you want to configure the application connection to Kaspersky Security Network and Enforced Anti-Spam Updates Service as well as to Kaspersky activate update server sources through a proxy server.

    When connecting to Kaspersky’s activation servers, the security server profile uses the local settings for connecting to the computer’s proxy server on which the Management Console is installed. In the workspace, open the Proxy server settings section.

  4. In the Proxy server address field, enter the proxy server address.
  5. Specify the proxy server port number in the Port field.

    The default port number is 8080.

  6. If authentication is required to connect to the specified proxy server, select the Use authentication check box and enter the account name in the Account field and password in the Password field.
  7. If you do not want to use a proxy server to connect to local resources, select the check box Bypass proxy server for local addresses.
  8. Click the Save button.
