HTTP Proxy

AskLink supports HTTP and HTTPS proxies. The proxy address can use either a domain name or IP address. Both no authentication and username/password authentication are supported.

Before you start

• Prepare a working proxy server address and port
• Make sure the proxy server is reachable

Enable the proxy

1. Open AskLink and click “My” > “HTTP Proxy”
2. Enter the proxy address, proxy port (required), and the username and password (optional)
3. Click “Enable Proxy”; once the test passes, the settings take effect immediately

Disable the proxy

1. Open AskLink and click “My” > “HTTP Proxy”
2. Click “Disable Proxy” to turn off the proxy

Edit proxy settings

• You can edit the proxy settings after disabling the proxy

Notes

• The proxy only applies to AskLink
• The HTTP proxy feature is only available to Professional Edition members
• Only IPv4 proxies are supported
