Proxy Settings for Vault Client Utilities

Issue:

You want to know if there is a way to configure proxy server settings in the software for the Authentication side of the Vault Client Utilities.

Solution:

The mechanism for configuring a proxy would be to edit the “LicenseRequester.exe.config” file, and tell it what the proxy settings are:

The basic file looks like:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
  <appSettings>
    <add key="Feature" value="VaultClientUtilities"/>
    <add key="Version" value="2023"/>
  </appSettings>
</configuration>

With changes, it might look like:


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
  <appSettings>
    <add key="Feature" value="VaultClientUtilities"/>
    <add key="Version" value="2023"/>
  </appSettings>

  <system.net>
    <defaultProxy>
      <proxy bypassonlocal="True" usesystemdefault="False"/>
    </defaultProxy>
  </system.net>
</configuration>

The system.net section has a wide variety of options, documented here:

For more in-depth configuration options, please reach out to your Account Manager and request a discovery meeting with our Software Development Services Team. They will be glad to assist you.
