HTTP Proxy Client Configuration
It is possible to configure LogScale to access the Internet through an HTTP proxy server. LogScale will use the proxy for sending messages from actions and communicating with S3.
To set up an HTTP proxy, use the following configuration properties:
HTTP_PROXY_HOST=proxy.myorganisation.com
HTTP_PROXY_PORT=3129
HTTP_PROXY_USERNAME=you
HTTP_PROXY_PASSWORD=your-secret-password
Username and password are only needed if the proxy uses authentication, otherwise they can be left out.
Disable Use of Proxy
Whenever necessary, some features can be configured not to use the HTTP proxy. These are:
Actions. Users can be allowed not to use the HTTP proxy for the actions they create. Although users must use the HTTP proxy by default for security reasons, its usage can be disabled in cases where actions do not work properly with it. This is set through the
HTTP_PROXY_ALLOW_ACTIONS_NOT_USE
configuration variable.Amazon Bucket Storage. The HTTP proxy for this feature can be disabled via the
S3_STORAGE_USE_HTTP_PROXY
configuration variable.Export to Bucket with Amazon. The HTTP proxy for this feature can be disabled via the
S3_EXPORT_USE_HTTP_PROXY
configuration variable.S3 Archiving. The HTTP proxy for this feature can be disabled via the
S3_ARCHIVING_USE_HTTP_PROXY
configuration variable.FDR. Whether to use the HTTP proxy for this feature is set via the
FDR_USE_PROXY
configuration variable.IOC. Whether to use the HTTP proxy for this feature is set via the
IOC_USE_HTTP_PROXY
configuration variable.OIDC. Whether to use the HTTP proxy for this feature is set via the
OIDC_USE_HTTP_PROXY
configuration variable.
