Release Notes

● Using the netsh command—You can use the following command to configure the proxy server information:
netsh winhttp set proxy proxy-server="socks=localhost:9090"
bypass-list="localhost" C:\Users\administrator.WMSAD61>netsh
winhttp set proxy proxy-server="socks=<proxy server IP>"
bypass-list="localhost" Current WinHTTP proxy settings: Proxy
Server(s) : socks=<proxy server IP> Bypass List : localhost
● Using the WPAD file configured in DHCP—Wyse Management Suite repository server must be configured with DHCP IP
address and Internet Explorer must be configured with Automatically Detect settings. You must configure the DHCP option
tag 252 with the WPAD.pac file. Following is a sample PAC file content:
function FindProxyForURL(url, host) { if (shExpMatch(host,
"*wysemanagementsuite.com*")) { return "SOCKS <proxy server
IP>"; } return "DIRECT"; }
Limitations:
● Proxies that are configured at user level are not supported.
● There is no provision for user to enter username and password.
● There is no UI to enter the proxy URL as proxy details are read from the underlying operating system.
● HTTP proxy is not supported.
Proxy settings are read on repository service start. If there are any changes in the proxy settings, the repository service must be
restarted later.
