EXPLANATION

If the Internet can only be accessed through a HTTP proxy server or a firewall that only allows HTTP protocol communication to go through, this proxy setting should be enabled. This option allows the XL protocol, which is unique to GLOBALBASE, to be communicated via the HTTP protocol. Thus, if a firewall that allows only HTTP traffic to go through exists, the HTTP protocol can be used to access GLOBALBASE servers directly.

If such a firewall exists, simply select the XL over HTTP radio button. In this case, there is no need to set any other information. The XL protocol is embedded in HTTP packets to allow the traffic to go through the firewall.

If it is necessary to access servers via the HTTP proxy, select the Enable Proxy radio button and set the proxy server name and port No. If an internal server exists and GLOBALBASE servers must be accessed directly, enter the information of the servers to be accessed directly and click the Add button. The servers to be accessed directly appear in the Data list below. If you want to delete a server from this list, select the server to be deleted and click the Delete button.

BUGS

The server is not compatible with all proxy servers and there are pending problems regarding the communication speed. To alleviate this, we are in the process of developing light-weight, high-speed streaming [UNDEF REF (xl-stream-routing)]methods. We intend to shift to proxy servers that utilize such methods in the future. COSMOS does not support such methods yet.
