Configure the BARC Proxy

BARC Virtual Machines that do not need to be accessed over the Internet are typically assigned a private IP address. A private address provides an additional layer of security and reduces the number of public IP addresses in use (which are limited). A private IP address requires the use of a proxy for Internet access. 

An IP address in the range of 10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255 is a private address and will require a proxy for Internet access.

2. Select "Proxy Settings"
   
   
3. Scroll down to "Manual proxy Setup"

5. Enter in the address field: user-proxy.business.uconn.edu and Port: 3128
6. Check the "Don't use a proxy server for local (intranet addresses)"
   
   
7. Click "Save" and close out.
