Internet Links via Gateway using proxy?

Question

Does anyone know how to open the internet links through the Gateway with
using proxy?
If it is worked, how to include/exclude particular URL/domain/subdomain(s)
in order to use/not use the gateway proxy?
Thanks....

Have a look at the page of the admin console under Gateway Management/Manage Gateway Profile. There are four fields which affect how the gateway uses proxies: DNS Domains and Subdomains, Use Intranet Web Proxy, Use Web Proxy Enabled and Don't Use Web Proxy Enabled.
In DNS Domains and Subdomains, you can list all the intranet domains and subdomains that will be accessed via specific proxies. The syntax for each line is
domain_name [web_proxy1:port1] | subdomain1 [web_proxy2:port2] ...
On the first line you specify the default domain and subdomain. Any requested URL's that do not include a subdomain and domain are treated by the gateway as belonging to this subdomain and domain for URL rewriting and proxying purposes.
On the last line, you can specify something like '* myproxy:8080', which says that all domains/subdomains other that those listed on lines above will be accessed via the proxy 'myproxy' on port 8080.
(Have a look at chapter 8 of the Administration Guide for examples of these entries.)
If a proxy is indicated for a requested URL by the entries in this list, the gateway will access the URL via the nominated proxy subject to the following conditions:
If you check Use Intranet Web Proxy, the gateway will use the proxy unless you've put the URL in the Don't Use Web Proxy Enabled list, in which case it will send the request directly.
If you haven't checked Use Intranet Web Proxy, the gateway will use the proxy only if you have entered the URL in the Use Web Proxy Enabled list, otherwise it will send the request directly.
