Proxy server settings in Xtract Universal and Board Connector
About
Due to corporate network regulations there might be the requirement that all web traffic goes through a web proxy.
This means that Xtract Universal must also connect to a destination (e.g. S3 AWS) via a proxy server.
A proxy server can be configured in Xtract Universal in the following ways:
System wide in the Windows settings
Open the settings Network and Internet in your Windows start menu and set the respective proxy server settings there.
When connecting to a destination in Xtract Universal the connection will always be routed through the proxy server.
