Configuring proxy servers

To ensure security of the master server data, you must configure it to accept connections from known proxy servers before attempting to use the proxy server. Installing and configuring the proxy server requires information about both server computers, and you must set configuration options on both computers.

We recommend adding a proxy server to the master server before installing the proxy server application. If the proxy server application is already installed and you add the connection information to Surround SCM, use the registry utility to configure the proxy server settings. The server name, password, and port number must match between the registry utility and Surround SCM. See Editing proxy server options.
