Proxies
Proxy Server Use
- Primary Security Update Proxy used by Agents, Appliances, and Relays: Select a proxy server that the Deep Security Relays will use to connect to the Update Source specified in the Relays area on the Updates tab (either a Trend Micro Update Server or Other Update Source).
By default, Agents/Appliances get the Anti-Malware components of their Security Updates from Deep Security Relays. However, if Agents/Appliances cannot connect to their assigned Relays, and
the Allow Agents/Appliances to download Security Updates from this source if Deep Security Relays are not available option is selected, Agents/Appliances will also use this proxy.
- Deep Security Manager (Software Updates, CSSS, Product Registration and Licensing): Select a proxy that the Deep Security Manager will use to connect to Trend Micro to validate your Deep Security licenses, to connect to the Certified Safe Software Service (a feature of the Integrity Monitoring module), and for connecting to Amazon Web Services (AWS) and VMware vCloud Cloud Accounts.
Changes to the proxy settings for CSSS will not take effect until the Deep Security Manager and all Manager nodes are restarted. (You must restart the services manually.)
-
Deep Security Manager (Cloud Accounts - HTTP Protocol Only):
Select a proxy for Deep Security Manager to use when connecting to cloud-based instances that have been added to Deep Security Manager using the "Add Cloud Account" procedure.
You can view and edit the list of available proxies on the Proxies tab on the Administration > System Settings screen.
