Configure Proxy Parameters

If you use a proxy https server in your network, you must configure proxy parameters so that the IQ Agent on the device can communicate with ExtremeCloud IQ through the proxy.

Use this task to configure the proxy parameters for ExtremeCloud IQ on the IQ Agent.

Note

You must onboard the device and configure any optional IQ Agent parameters on the supported device before you enable IQAgent.

You can configure the IQ Agent parameters on the supported devices first, and then onboard the devices (that is, add the serial numbers for the devices in the ExtremeCloud IQ GUI) or vice versa.

For information about onboarding switches, see https://www.extremenetworks.com/support.
