Introduction
This chapter describes the ProxyServer software with the intent to show you how to make
changes to the configuration of your ProxyServer. The major configuration parameters were
established during the loading of the software
configuration utilities allow you to make changes to that initial configuration.
The ProxyServer software allows you to refine your configuration based on your network
connections. The software is based on a main menu (Proxy Setup) that allows you to consider all
the parameters for a particular feature (e.g., Internet access, DHCP Server addressing, and
Virtual Server mappings). These features, along with others are discussed in detail in the
ProxyServer Configuration section later in this chapter.
The other five configuration utilities offer additional functionality. Wizard Setup guides you through
the initial configuration and software downloading, as described in
Firmware allows you to download new versions of firmware when enhancements become
available. The Configuration Port Setup utility allows you to change the method by which you
access the ProxyServer (i.e., direct connection of a PC to the Command Port on the
ProxyServer, or via your Internet connection to the LAN port on the ProxyServer). The Uninstall
Proxy Server Configuration utility is designed to remove the software from your PC. The WAN
Device Configuration utility will open the Print Console, a terminal emulation program that will
enable you to configure any external devices connected to the WAN ports.
Note: The WAN Device Configuration utility is only supported if you are directly connected to the
ProxyServer. This Utility is not supported when accessing the ProxyServer via the network.
Your ProxyServer software includes the ProxyServer Help system. The Help is designed to be
context sensitive, and clicking the Help button within a given dialog will provide definitions and
recommended values for each button, option, and field for that dialog. In some instances, you will
also be presented with a list of related topics (that can be displayed by clicking on the green,
underlined text), as changes in one dialog may sometimes affect another. In addition, you can
search the entire Help system (via the Index tab) for definitions and references to specific terms,
fields, and recommend values where applicable.
