I would like to monitor servers in our DMZ but currently our Security Team will only allow SNMP as a Polling Method for those servers. However there is much more OOTB monitoring in Orion that is available if using the Orion Agent. For example, monitoring using AppInsight for SQL.
The Security Team here is not comfortable opening a port for the Agent to deliver data from the DMZ server to the Orion Server. But they are willing to consider Agent use if through a proxy server as is suggested in many posts throughout SW KBA and Thwack. However I don't see any articles talking about how to set up that proxy server.
Has anyone done this or maybe understands the concept and can explain it to me? I have never worked with proxy servers before.
TIA
