How can I set proxy exceptions in these monitors? I have internal URLs that redirect to external ones, so I have to use the proxy for the second URL but byass it fior the initial URL.
Thanks - Andy
You should create two different monitors, disabling the "Follow Redirects" option. The fist HTTP Component monitor would point to the internal URL with no proxy setting defined. The second HTTP Component Monitor would point at the external site that's required to go through the proxy server.
I can do that but it will create some troubleshooting and manual intervention work when a redirect changes. Is there an FR for proxy settings?
Most environments allow both internal and external resources to be accessed through the Proxy server. Under these conditions there is no need to define separate proxy settings for internal vs external resources. Though I fully understand that this is not the case in all environments, the workaround listed above is certainly viable. Failing that however, you should find that Web Performance Monitor will function in the manner you require.
