Problem Description

The Broker supports the configuration of a proxy host to access network resources. In addition, bypass addresses can be configured to specify address namespaces and IP ranges which should bypass the proxy when accessed.

A network administrator may notice that access to configured bypass addresses still traverse the proxy.

Cause

The format of the specified bypass address is incorrectly specified or is malformed.

Resolution

Correctly specify the proxy bypass addresses in the Broker Admin UI, which is a comma separated list of IP addresses and host names. Wildcards should be used if an entire address space should be bypassed. For example, 192.168.1.*, or *.buttonwood.internal instead of buttonwood.internal.

Refer to the article Configuring a Network Proxy for steps to configure proxy settings.
