The protocol used by a proxy-based firewall.
Possible Values
NONE, TUNNEL, SOCKS4, SOCKS5Data Type
string
Default Value
"NONE"
Remarks
This property specifies the protocol that the add-in will use to tunnel traffic through the FirewallServer proxy. Note that by default, the add-in connects to the system proxy; to disable this behavior and connect to one of the following proxy types, set ProxyAutoDetect to false.
Type | Default Port | Description |
TUNNEL | 80 | When this is set, the add-in opens a connection to IBM Cloud Object Storage and traffic flows back and forth through the proxy. |
SOCKS4 | 1080 | When this is set, the add-in sends data through the SOCKS 4 proxy specified by FirewallServer and FirewallPort and passes the FirewallUser value to the proxy, which determines if the connection request should be granted. |
SOCKS5 | 1080 | When this is set, the add-in sends data through the SOCKS 5 proxy specified by FirewallServer and FirewallPort. If your proxy requires authentication, set FirewallUser and FirewallPassword to credentials the proxy recognizes. |
To connect to HTTP proxies, use ProxyServer and ProxyPort. To authenticate to HTTP proxies, use ProxyAuthScheme, ProxyUser, and ProxyPassword.
