HTTP Proxy Setup

It is possible to configure Humio to access the Internet through an HTTP proxy server. Humio will use the proxy for sending messages from actions and communicating with S3.

To set up an HTTP proxy, use the following configuration properties:

ini files
HTTP_PROXY_HOST=proxy.myorganisation.com
HTTP_PROXY_PORT=3129
HTTP_PROXY_USERNAME=you
HTTP_PROXY_PASSWORD=your-secret-password
HTTP_PROXY_ALLOW_ACTIONS_NOT_USE=true

Username and password can be left out if they are not required.

Disable Use of Proxy

Actions can be configured to not use the HTTP proxy, see Actions documentation. This is disabled per default for security reasons, but can be enabled using the HTTP_PROXY_ALLOW_ACTIONS_NOT_USE configuration.

Humio can also be configured to not use the proxy server for communication with S3 for Amazon Bucket Storage Export to Bucket with Amazon and S3 Archiving (Self-Install).
