PROXYHOST Statement—Specify a Proxy Host

The PROXYHOST statement specifies the proxy host name to use for the request in an HTTP job.

Supported Job Type

This statement is optional for the HTTP job type.

Syntax

This statement has the following format:

PROXYHOST proxy_host

proxy_host

Specifies the proxy host name to use for the request.

Limits: Up to 1024 characters; case-sensitive

Notes:

• Enclose values that contain delimiters (such as spaces) in double quotation marks.
• Your agent administrator can specify a default proxy host name for all HTTP jobs by setting the http.proxyHost parameter in the agent's agentparm.txt file.
• The PROXYHOST statement overrides the default proxy host name specified in the agent's agentparm.txt.

Example: Override Global Proxy Defaults in Agent Parameter File

This example performs an HTTP query using the HTTP GET method. The output of the invocation is returned in the job's spool file. In this example, the job specifies the connection domain and origin for NTLM authentication, overrides the global proxy defaults specified in the agentparm.txt file, and specifies the user and BASIC, DIGEST, and NTLM protocols for web server authentication.
