15.7.4.1 Configuring HTTP Proxy Hosts

The HTTP Proxy Hosts table lets you configure HTTP Proxy hosts for HTTP Proxy
services. An HTTP Proxy Host represents the HTTP-based managed equipment (e.g., IP
Phone). The table is a "child" of the HTTP Proxy Services table (see ''Configuring HTTP
Proxy Services'' on page 285). You can configure up to 50 HTTP Proxy hosts; up to 5
HTTP Proxy hosts per HTTP Proxy Service.
The following procedure describes how to configure HTTP Remote hosts through the Web
interface. You can also configure it through ini file (HTTPProxyHost) or CLI (configure
network > http-proxy http-proxy-host).

To configure an HTTP Proxy Host:
1. Open the HTTP Proxy Services table (Setup menu > IP Network tab > HTTP Proxy
folder > HTTP Proxy Services).
2. In the table, select the required HTTP Proxy Service index row, and then click the
HTTP Proxy Hosts link located below the table; the HTTP Proxy Hosts table appears.
3. Click New; the following dialog box appears:

4. Configure an HTTP Proxy Host according to the parameters described in the table
below.
Version 7.2
Description
equipment:

[0] Disable

[1] Options = (Default) Enables keep-alive by sending
HTTP OPTIONS messages. If no response is received
from the HTTP host, the device stops forwarding HTTP
requests to the host and raises an SNMP alarm
(acHTTPProxyServiceAlarm). If you configured the
address of the host as an FQDN (see ''Configuring HTTP
Proxy Hosts'' on page 287) and the DNS resolution
results in multiple IP addresses, when no response is
received from the keep-alive, the device checks
connectivity with the next resolved IP address and so on,
until a response is received.
