Netpath Probes Proxies?

rchapoteau

We use different proxy servers based on geographic locations, and I wanted to put in probes in various locations that will use those proxies going out.  I have tested this installing the Netpath agent on my laptop, and so far it looks like Netpath isn't using my local proxy to go out to the internet.  I see that there is a way to do it from the actual Orion server, but I don't see the option for my probe.  Is there a way to do this from my laptop probe?

That is only possible if you have something external redirecting the traffic (WCCP for example)

If the proxy settings are on the probe OS, i.e. in the browser config etc. then it can't be done

and you would have to use the method suggested in the article linked below and create two paths. One from a probe on your laptop

to the proxy itself and then set up another probe in the proxy sub net and run a path to the external target.
