Proxy Settings for Internet

My university has Wifi throughout the campus and I would like to connect to it with an iPhone.
Does the iPhone have settings for entering a proxy to connect through. I can either type a .pac file or the actual proxy (proxy.brighton.ac.uk). Without this I can't access the internet.
Any solutions?
Many thanks.

Follow this link, it shows where the dhcp is and where the proxy settings are found!

  • Can' able to change my proxy settings in Internet Options

    Few days ago my LAN proxy settings in Internet Options>Connection tab changed and I can't able to revert the changes. It set to
    HTTP: 127.0.0.1:8080
    Secure: 127.0.0.1:8080
    A message at the bottom displays "Some settings are managed by your system administrator". I am the only user of my PC.
    I am using windows 8.1 having Internet explorer 11. I had tried all the methods to make it work correctly but not succeeded, please help me to solve this problem I can't able to connect any of the tiles apps and my internet speed also slows down. I checked
    out for any miscellaneous program that may got installed on my PC but didn't find any one, all are from trusted vendors.

    Hello rngvivek,
    Do you mean that the proxy setting in the Internet Option is automatically changed and then when you try to revert the setting, the error message ‘Some settings are managed by your system administrator’ shows up?
    Please explain a bit about the following question for better analyzation:
    1. Have you made any change before this issue?
    2. Is this computer domain-joined?
    3. Can you still visit the website and use other app to connect to the Internet?
    Please take the following steps for troubleshooting:
    1. Check if we can disable the proxy setting in the Internet Option
    2. Refer to the following KB to reset Internet Explorer.

  • Contribute 4 - no proxy settings for outgoing CPS authorization

    Does CS4 have any access to proxy settings for publishing
    server identification?
    There are three outgoing requests in Contribute:
    1) FTP or SFTP --> this has a proxy setting
    2) contribute browser -> this uses proxy settings inside
    of Start->Settings->Control panel -> Internet Options
    3) HTTPS: validating CPS un/pw -> this has no proxy
    setting that I can find.

    Thank you for the quick reply! But the solution provided by you, it seems, has still not been able to address my issue. I ran the program at command prompt with your said parameters, but the download still gave an error in the App window.
    Also, is there some way of defining these parameters in the source code? I am keen in using NetBeans to run the program.
    Cheers!

  • Strange info in "Bypass Proxy Settings for These Hosts and Domains"

    For my Mac Mini my Network IP Address always has a self-assigned 169.254 number that I cannot change. Strangely, this same IP number is similar to info that is in the Proxies section (of Network Settings) under "Bypass Proxy Settings for These Hosts and Domains".
    No matter what I do, this info (*,local, 169.254/16) appears in my Network Settings in the Proxies section under "Bypass Proxy Settings for These Hosts and Domains". (I tried removing the info and it would cause the "Configure Proxies" selection to default to "Always Use PAC File". Had to go back and retrash all the plist files to have Proxies go back to "Configure Proxies-Manually". Still, the info (*,local, 169.254/16) continues to appear in the "Bypass Proxy Settings for These Hosts and Domains" section and my IP address is always a 169.254 number.)
    Comcast cable modem via direct hardwired Ethernet works fine with my other computer, so not the modem. Also, other computer does not have any info in the "Bypass Proxy Settings for These Hosts and Domains" section.
    Installed a fresh copy of OS X 11.5 on a new hard drive. Still the same problem.
    I posted this issue before but only got one responder and the problem still exists. Any clues? Somebody must know about this stuff. Help please.
    Thanks

    When your Mac wakes up, it does not yet have an IP Addresss. It wants to send a request to a Router for an apprpriste IP address to use now. But it needs to have an IP address (like a return address) to receive any messages. So, ... wait for it,
    ... it (your Mac) makes one up. There are rules that ensure it is a random address, but they always start with 169.254. It is on the same subnet with any low-order 16 bits This is the "self-assigned" range of IP Addresses. This address is only good for talking on a local network segment, for things like asking for a valid IP Address from a DHCP-enabled Router.
    In most cases, on most networks, the 169.254 self-assigned IP Address is replaced by a valid Local IP Address such as 192.168.xxx yyy or 10.0.xxx.yyy so quickly that you never even see the 169.254 Address.
    If you do see the 169.254 Address, it can be read as "Nobody will talk to me" or "Nobody will give me an IP Address". When you have this IP Address for more than an instant, you should suspect bad cables for Ethernet connections, bad signal strength or interference for wireless, Router configuration problems, or Mac configuration problems.
    Mac configuration problems are often solved by using the "Assist Me" button is System Preferences > Network  and choosing to set up again.
    Another diagnostic is to try using Network Utility and the Ping function, and Ping-ing the address of your Airport base Station, often 192.168.0.1 or 10.0.0.1 or similar. This will tell you if the Router is reachable, or there are cabling/wirelss signal problems.
    In this case, proxies are not an issue, and are simply a distraction from the real problems.

  • I have lost the correct proxy settings for the ethernet connection using Safari.  How do I get back to the original ethernet proxy settings?

    I changed the ethernet proxy settings for Safari on my Mac Pro, when I was in a particular place that required extra security.  Now I cannot get the ethernet connection to work when back home.  The wireless connection works fine.  What are the original ethernet proxy settings.  How do I make the changes?
    Thanks

    From your Safari menu bar click Safari / Preferences then select the Advanced tab. Click Change Settings next to Proxies. Select Automatically from the Configure pop up menu.
    You may also have to select the Proxies tab. If any of the boxes are selected, deselect then click OK.

  • How could I set the proxy settings for just some URLs and not for all?

    Hello,
    I am using HttpURLConnection to establish a HTTP connection . The connection pass through a proxy, and it requires security.
    I know that I can set the proxy settings in the system properties, and this works perfect.
    But I don't want to set the proxy settings in the system properties, because this proxy settings will be for ALL the URLs, and I just want for a few URLs.
    How could I set the proxy settings for just some URLs and not for all?
    Thanks

  • Bypassing proxy settings for IPv6-adresses.

    My MacBook is currently connected both via IPv4 and IPv6, and I prefer using a squid-proxy when surfing. Alas, my proxy only supports IPv4.
    In network preferences I can type in hosts to bypass proxy settings for, but I'd like to do this for every single IPv6 host. Any solutions?
    Martin

    The format should be comma-delimited, like:
    <pre class=command>localhost, *.domain1.com, www.domain2.com</pre>
    However, IIRC, Network Preferences is pretty tolerant - it'll accept most forms of input and will reformat it into something that makes sense to it.

  • Where can I read the proxy settings Firefox chose, when configured to use "Auto-detect proxy settings for this network"?

    I would like to set my system network proxy settings to those, Firefox chose. Firefox is configured to use "Auto-detect proxy settings for this network" and this works fine. How can I read out the settings Firefox chose, so I can adapt these system?

    Hello Richard,
    Download MozBackup and make a backup of your bookmarks and passwords. Uninstall firefox and remove ALL folders with the name "Firefox".
    Install Firefox and restore your bookmarks and passwords. Now you should have a fresh install so you have to make all settings again.

  • Configure proxy settings for WebEngine

    I had no luck in finding any docs about how to configure the proxy server for a WebView/WebEngine.
    I assume the system properties "http.proxyHost" and "http.proxyPort" are used if they are set, is this correct?
    Is there also a way to configure the proxy settings for each WebEngine instance?
    Regards,
    Heiko

    I am also getting this "error".  The printer (8500 A910) connected to the web well enough that it went out and supposedly downloaded a new update, but then it was supposed to print a page showing the email address, but did not.
    So I go in and try to set up the eprint, and it tells me it cannot connect to the sever and I'll need to enter a proxy address and port number.  But my ISP's cable modems do NOT have any static IP address nor do they provide any sort of proxy service.  Everything works just fine with "automatic discovery" (DHCP) for every computer in the house.  No problems there.
    So, since  that's the case, of course I cannot look up some proxy address and port number in my web browser because they're all set up for "automatically detect settings".
    What's baffling is that the printer connected to something at HP to download the "update", and it went through a process that appeared to be what I'd expect it to do if it was updating its firmware.  But it won't connect to whatever it's supposed to connect to to have an email address assigned.
    Does HP supply a proxy server?  If so, what's its IP address or URL, and what port should a person set the printer to try to use?
    UPDATE:
    It appears that the HP site must have just been "down" for about six or seven hours while I was trying to get the printer to connect because it now connected and I got an email address asigned without needing to have any "proxy" stuff set up at all.  It's a shame that the printer does not simply report "HP Site down - try again later" instead of reporting that you need to use a proxy when that's impossible.
    "Now, on to the next problem which is that my emails to the assigned address are all bouncing with a "550 5.7.1 Command rejected" error!

  • Steps to apply Proxy settings for all Server in a specific OU using Group Policy ?

    People,
    I have several terminal server (2008 R2) running as RDSH in an OU called Terminal Servers.
    So how can I create the GPO setting to make sure that everyone who login to this terminal server will be getting the proxy settings automatically to proxy.domain.com on port 3128 ?
    I've created the GP object and then link it directly to the Terminal Servers OU using the following options:
    User Configuration (Enabled) > Policies > Windows Settings > Internet Explorer Maintenance >
    Connection/Proxy Settings > Enable proxy settings 
    But somehow when I login as myself and DOMAIN\Administrator the proxy settings in the IE11 is still unchecked with the old Proxy value and sometimes blank in some servers.

    >
    > User Configuration (Enabled) > Policies > Windows Settings > Internet
    > Explorer Maintenance >

    User policies apply to user objects - the servers will ignore them, and
    as long as there is no user in your terminal servers OU, no one will get
    this setting.
    Link your policy to the OUs where the users are, then use item level
    targeting to filter for a security group you create for this purpose,
    and add all your terminal servers to this group. Don't forget to reboot
    the servers after changing group memberships...

  • How to display the proxy settings for a specific group of servers in an OU ?

    Hi,
    Can anyone here please assist me in how to display the value of Proxy server settings from the computers in a specific OU member ?
    $Computers = Get-ADComputer -Filter * -SearchBase "OU=Terminal Servers,OU=Servers,DC=domain,DC=com" | Where-Object { Test-Connection $_.Name -Count 1 -Quiet }

    I've done similar script for some other task but not sure how to do this for Proxy setting.
    Thanks.

    Proxy settings are not set in Active Directory
    The below code works for 2003 servers and Win XP
    $colItems = get-wmiobject -class "Win32_Proxy" -namespace "root\CIMV2" `
    -computername $env:computername
    foreach ($objItem in $colItems) {
    write-host "Caption: " $objItem.Caption
    write-host "Description: " $objItem.Description
    write-host "Proxy Port Number: " $objItem.ProxyPortNumber
    write-host "Proxy Server: " $objItem.ProxyServer
    write-host "Server Name: " $objItem.ServerName
    write-host "Setting ID: " $objItem.SettingID
    write-host
    You can try checking the registry values- Works in 2008 + and Windows 7
    Get-Item 'HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings'
    or use netsh
    netsh winhttp show proxy -r <remotemachinename>

  • Proxy settings for XML iview

    We have been struggling to create an XML iview using the XML iview template since we installed EP 6.0 SP9. We tried to upgrade to SP13, SP14 but still did not work. Recently we upgraded to SP18 and today SP19, and we got a new error message "Runtime error in XML iView. Proxy settings on the server may not be configured". 
    We don't use any proxy servers in our network.  I have also tried to configure the proxy settings in system configuration and restart the service but the error keeps unchanged.
    We are almost desperated but without the XML iview Portal means nothing to us.

    Thank you for replying, Prem.
    We don't have to go though a proxy server to access the internet.  And the XML source URL is from our internal server netword.  So I believe that we don't need to configure the proxy setting in this case.
    We have also tried to configure the proxy settings as instructed in many messages but it still doesn't work.
    Is there anything else that we might be missing for creating an XML iview?

  • Enable/Workaround Exchange Proxy Settings for iPhone

    I have an iPhone (1G) and I have it correctly setup to use my enterprise network and Exchange Server.
    The problem is that outside my corporate network I'm not able to use the same settings, because outside of the network I need an "Exchange Proxy Setting"; Outlook provides this option and it works:
    Account Settings -> Exchange account properties -> Connection tab -> Outlook Anywhere -> Enable Connect to Microsoft Exchange using HTTP -> Exchange Proxy Settings... -> Configure your Proxy server -> Ok
    I can't find a way to configure this same proxy on the iPhone. I don't want to use it as a SMTP/IMAP account, first of all because I'm not allowed to do it and second because I want to use Exchange server.
    Is there a way to enable/workaround this configuration on the iPhone so I can connect to my corporate Exchange server from "anywhere" ?
    Thanks!

    same for me, I need the exchange client to behave like the outlook client, allowing for 2 possibilities: one way to connect to the server over the intranet (different server name, and not over http because that would go out straight through the http proxy and get lost in the internet), and an alternative when I'm not on the intranet, but anywhere else via the internet - here http access works just great
    not sure if apple is serious about the enterprise market, this and other "small" issues make me rather believe not (yet)...
    keeping my fingers crossed, but add this to the push mode/battery problem, and my iPhone is only so far from ebay
