Configuring WebSphere® Application Server to use HTTP/TCP proxy
You must modify the Java™ virtual machine (JVM) so that WebSphere® Application Server can use an HTTP/TCP proxy. You can do this change by setting some JVM options through the administrative console.
About this task
To configure WebSphere® Application Server to use the HTTP/TCP proxy:
Procedure
- In the administrative console, open the Java™ virtual machine page to enter values for the JVM settings. The steps to set JVM arguments with the administrative console are different depending on the version of WebSphere® Application Server that you are using.
- In the Generic JVM arguments field,
type the following arguments:
-Dhttp.proxyHost=<Host name or IP address of HTTP/TCP proxy> -Dhttp.proxyPort=<Port number specified during installation of Rational® Test Control Panel and/or editing registration.xml file, for example, 3128>
- Save the changes that are made to the master configuration.
- Restart the application server for the changes to take
effect.Note: If you are setting up a HTTP/TCP proxy to support HTTPS, the properties are
-Dhttps.proxyHost
and-Dhttps.proxyPort
