Abstract

Configure a Cortex XSOAR engine to use a web proxy by editing the d1.conf file.

Proxy settings can be configured in an engine by adding them as an engine configuration.

Note

You need to configure Docker to use a proxy. When using a BlueCoat proxy, ensure you encode the values correctly.

  1. On the machine on which you installed the engine, navigate to the d1.conf file and add the following keys.

    Key

    Value

    Description

    http_proxy

    http://<user:password@proxy-server:port#>

    For example http://user:password@proxy-server:3128

    Environment uses http proxy. Special characters must be escaped.

    https_proxy

    https://user:password@proxy-server:port#

    For example, https://user:password@proxy-server:3128

    Environment uses https proxy. Special characters must be escaped.

  2. If the environment variables are not set, or you wish to use a different settings than those specified in the environment variables, set the configuration with your specific proxy details in the d1.conf file. For example:

    {"http_proxy": "http://proxy.host.local:8080",
"https_proxy": "https://proxy.host.local:8443"}

  3. Save the file.
