Configuring RapidDeploy to use a Global HTTP/HTTPS Proxy.

Proxy usage:

In many cases your RapidDeploy installation will be behind a firewall. In this case you may need to configure a Proxy Server to allow RapidDeploy to make external connections to WAN (Internet) using HTTP, HTTPS, FTP and Socks protocols.

This values will be applied globally for RapidDeploy but in same cases can be overridden by local features like plugins settings.

Configuration example:

To configure the Proxy server used to make network connections from RapidDeploy framework server to external servers, edit these settings. Proxy settings are set in the rapiddeploy.properties file. Please see the section below:

#---------------------------------
# Proxy settings
#---------------------------------

proxy.host=10.0.20.1
proxy.port=9666
proxy.non.proxy.hosts=localhost|127.0.0.1|*.local
proxy.username=john.smith
proxy.password={_MV@ENC#_}1XjHBhW3VuUeQffTl5qD+A==
  • proxy.host : Hostname or IP of the Proxy server.
  • proxy.port : Port of the Proxy server.
  • proxy.non.proxy.hosts : List of hosts and IPs separated by pipe to avoid using Proxy server (optional).
  • proxy.username : Username to authenticate against the Proxy server (optional).
  • proxy.password : Password to authenticate sagainst the Proxy server (optional). This can be a plain text password or an encrypted password using the RapidDeploy encryption tool (use 'proxy.password' as the key when generating the encrypted password).
