Task 5. (Optional) Configure proxy settings

Configure optional proxy settings for Cortex XSOAR 8.10 On-prem.

When a proxy is configured in Cortex XSOAR, the system by default routes internal node-to-node communication and other internal traffic through that configured proxy. If you do not configure a proxy, the system uses standard network routing and DNS resolution.

If you want to use a proxy, define the proxy address and port settings. The proxy can be set at any point, during Cortex XSOAR deployment or at a later stage.

If you do not want to use a proxy, you must explicitly list the relevant internal IP addresses or FQDNs in the No Proxy field. You should then verify the internal DNS correctly resolves these addresses for direct connections.

1. From the textual UI menu, select Proxy Configuration.
2. Configure the following settings.

   • Proxy Protocol: Choose HTTP or HTTPS.
   • Proxy Address
   • Proxy Port
   • Proxy User: If using an authenticated proxy, enter the user name.
   • Proxy Password If using an authenticated proxy, enter the password.
   • No Proxy

     Specify a comma-separated list of domains, IP addresses, or network ranges that should bypass the proxy.

     Example 1: Bypass the proxy for the following IPs and domain:

     • IP address: 1.1.1.1
     • domain: example.com
     • IP range: 10.0.0.0/8

     Set the No Proxy field to: 1.1.1.1,example.com,10.0.0.0/8

     Example 2: Bypass the proxy for the following MSSP IPs and domains:

     • Main tenant IP: 192.168.100.1
     • Main tenant FQDN: xsoarmain.svc.mydomain.com
     • Child tenant IP: 192.168.100.2
     • Child tenant FQDN: xsoarhost.svc.mydomain.com

     Set the No Proxy field to: 192.168.100.1,192.168.100.2,.svc.mydomain.com

3. Select Save.
