Configuring Remote Engine proxy authentication

Before you begin

You must configure the proxy settings before starting this procedure and pairing the Remote Engine.

In Remote Engine versions 2.8.2 or below, if you need to change the proxy settings after pairing the Remote Engine, you must unpair and re-install it before starting this procedure.

From Remote Engine version 2.8.3, you only need to stop the engine before configuring the proxy settings, then start it again.

Procedure

Access the Remote Engine installation folder.

Add the HTTP or HTTPS proxy values to the <RemoteEngineInstallationDirectory>\etc\system.properties file.

Example

http.proxyHost=<proxyHost>
http.proxyPort=<proxyPort>
http.nonProxyHosts=127.0.0.1|localhost

https.proxyHost=<proxyHost>
https.proxyPort=<proxyPort>
https.nonProxyHosts=127.0.0.1|localhost

To connect to ActiveMQ, define the amq.proxy parameter in the <RemoteEngineInstallationDirectory>\etc\org.talend.ipaas.rt.pairing.agent.cfg file.
- HTTP
```
amq.proxy=http
```
- HTTPS
```
amq.proxy=https
```
Information noteNote: This step only necessary if your Remote Engine version is higher than 2.1 and lower than 2.8.3.

The proxy configuration parameter values are called from the <RemoteEngineInstallationDirectory>\etc\system.properties file.
Add the HTTP or HTTPS proxy authentication parameters and values to the <RemoteEngineInstallationDirectory>\etc\system.properties file.
```
http.proxyUser=<proxyUser>
http.proxyPassword=<proxyPassword>

https.proxyUser=<proxyUser>
https.proxyPassword=<proxyPassword>
```
For Java 8 Update 111 or a higher version, add the following parameter to the same file:
```
jdk.http.auth.tunneling.disabledSchemes=
```
No value has to be specified.
Create a new configuration file named org.apache.cxf.http.conduits-common.cfg in the same directory.

Add the following content to the file:

url=https://.*
proxyAuthorization.UserName=<proxyUser>
proxyAuthorization.Password=<proxyPassword>

Save your changes.
Start your Remote Engine.
Pair your Remote Engine again.
