RESTful Engine Proxy Configuration

Depending on your network security you may need to configure the RESTful engine to rout outbound traffic through a proxy in order to connect to the license server. This is a common requirement in enterprise environments. Depending on your environment this can be handled in a few different ways.

Linux​

Add the following to the catalina.sh file in the bin directory of the Tomcat installation:

SET JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% -Dhttp.proxyHost=<Host name or IP address of HTTP/TCP proxy> -Dhttp.proxyPort=<Port the proxy is running on>

Windows (non-service)​

Add the following to the catalina.bat file in the bin directory of the Tomcat installation:

SET JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% -Dhttp.proxyHost=<Host name or IP address of HTTP/TCP proxy> -Dhttp.proxyPort=<Port the proxy is running on>

Windows (service)​

Run Tomcat10w.exe from the bin directory of the Tomcat installation. Go to the Java tab and add the following to the Java Options field:

-Dhttp.proxyHost=<Host name or IP address of HTTP/TCP proxy>
-Dhttp.proxyPort=<Port the proxy is running on>
