Integrating the Client with Security

Solutions

Overview

This section describes how you can integrate the client with a range of security technologies, including proxy servers, firewalls, and Secure Sockets Layer/ Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) based systems. This section assumes you have a working knowledge of these technologies. It describes:

Connecting through a proxy server

Integrating the client with the Secure Gateway or SSL Relay solutions with SSL/TLS protocols

Connecting to a server using alternate addressing across a firewall

Configuring the Client to Work with a Proxy Server

You can use either a SOCKS proxy or a Secure Proxy Server (also known as Security Proxy Server, HTTPS Proxy Server, or SSL Tunneling Proxy Server). Proxy authentication is also supported. When used with the Secure Gateway, applications can be delivered securely to anywhere in the world by the Web. The client can automatically detect proxy server settings from the network settings in the client computer’s Network System Preferences.

To configure the client to work with a proxy server you can specify the default details of your proxy server manually or detect proxy servers automatically. Instructions on how to do this are provided in the following two sections.

Specifying the Proxy Server Manually

If you are specifying the proxy server manually, you need to know its address. You also need to know its port number if it is not set to 1080 for a SOCKS Proxy Server or 8080 for a Secure Proxy Server.
