Internet Proxy Server Setup

Some companies restrict internet connection from individual computers inside company's intranet / local area network, in which case individual computers can access internet through a Proxy Server. If your company uses proxy server, you must define the proxy server host and port number in config.properties (located in /www/MbrSvr/config/ folder) to allow TestOptimal server to access internet for software updates and license validation.

Define Proxy Server

To define proxy server, add / modify the following config settings: 

ProxyHost=myhost
ProxyPort=1234
ProxyUserID=abc
ProxyPassword=xxx

ProxyUserID and ProxyPassword are only required if your proxy server requires user id and password. If your proxy server does not require user id and password to access the internet, then leave these properties blank or delete them.

Another way to define proxy server is to edit startTestOptimalServer.bat (for windows) or startTestOptimalServer.sh (for mac/linux) and add the following “-D” java command-line argument: 

java -Dhttp.proxyHost=myproxyserver.com -Dhttp.proxyPort=80 ...
