AudioCodes 400HD Series - Support for Enterprise HTTP;S Proxy Servers

Administrator's Manual 3. Manual Configuration of a Single IP Phone
Version 3.4.4 107 400HD IP Phones Series - Teams Compatible
3.5.9 Support for Enterprise HTTP/S Proxy Servers
This feature enables phones in an enterprise to send packets via the enterprise’s proxy
server instead of sending packets directly to the server. The new support enables customers
to leverage their proxy as security when accessing cloud services. The network administrator
can configure the feature via the configuration file.
 To configure HTTP/S proxy server capability:
 Open the Configuration File page (Management tab > Manual Update >
Configuration File) and configure the parameters using the table below as reference.
Table 3-50: Configuring HTTP/S Server
Parameter Description
http_client/fwd_proxy/ip Default: 0.0.0.0. Defines the proxy’s IP address.
http_client/fwd_proxy/port Default: 8080. Defines the port.
http_client/fwd_proxy/username
Default: 0. Defines the proxy username, for example,
johnd.
http_client/fwd_proxy/password
Default: 0. Defines the proxy user’s password. If
‘username’ is configured, then ‘password’ must also be
configured, otherwise the same ‘password’ as it will not be
taken from the domain’s data.
http_client/fwd_proxy/direct/ip
Default: Local. When set to the default, phone HTTP
requests destined for private IP addresses will not be sent
to the forward proxy. If not set to the default, the phone will
send all HTTP requests to the forward proxy (if its address
is different to 0.0.0.0).
Note: The IP Local/Private addresses are defined in RFC
1918.
Important:
• If the proxy server’s username and password are not configured, the phone will use the NTLM
domain’s username and password.
• If ‘username’ is configured, then ‘password’ must also be configured as it will not be taken from
the domain’s data.
• To disable network communications going through the proxy server, the proxy IP address can
be configured to “0.0.0.0”.
