All proxy systems should be configured to allow access to these URLs without TLS/SSL interception. (We use client-side SSL certificates for authentication). It is possible to configure a proxy server, username and password during the setup process of the underlying platform. Only BASIC authentication is supported (no NTLM authentication support).

Warning

Please make sure that you install your Inventory Analyzer with a domain name (see Network Configuration). If you do not set the Domain Name and install the Inventory Analyzer, you might encounter certain problems with future integrations.

All components you install should have a proper domain name configured to avoid issues further during the configuration.
