All client computers must have their browsers configured to use Protex.
1) Proxy settings
All browsers must be configured to use a proxy server
- Proxy Address: zprotex.corp.domain.com
- Proxy Port: 8080
(You will need to replace corp.domain.com with the Active Directory Domain name of the server.)
2) Bypass local addresses
You need to ensure that that you enable the option to: Bypass proxy server for local addresses
3) Pop-up Blocker
You need to ensure that you allow pop ups from the IP address of the ZPROTEX server. This is because a popup window is opened when browsing, which logs you into Protex. This popup window must remain open while browsing the Internet
4) Protex certificate
An SSL certificate needs to be installed on all client computers. Further details here
5) Allow Javascript and Cookies
The browser must be set to allow cookies and javascript
We recommend using group Policy to push out the Proxy settings to the client computers.
Please see this Microsoft technet article for further instructions on configuring browser proxy settings via Group Policy:
