HTTP Client Parameters

When you configure the AWSTranslate task, you might need to configure a proxy server or specify SSL settings. You can set any of the IDOL HTTP Client configuration parameters in the task section, for example:

UseSystemProxy=TRUE
SSLMethod=Negotiate

TIP: You can encrypt user names and passwords before entering them into your configuration file. For information about how to encrypt parameter values, refer to the IDOL Getting Started Guide.

ProxyHost String   The host name or IP address of the proxy server to use.

UseSystemProxy Boolean False

A Boolean value that specifies whether to obtain details about your HTTP proxy from the system. On Windows, Connector Framework Server reads the proxy settings configured through Internet Explorer or the Windows Control Panel. On Linux, Connector Framework Server reads the proxy settings from environment variables such as HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY.

You can set this parameter instead of setting ProxyHost, ProxyPort, ProxyUsername, and ProxyPassword.
