Reverse proxy setup for Java app agents

I have an on-premise 4.1 install. I am trying to connect Java agents and UI through an Apache Reverse Proxy.

UI seems to be working fine.

I have a Java agent that was successfully connected to the controller directly i.e

<controller-host>mycontroller.db.com</controller-host>

<controller-port>8090</controller-port>

I see I have to add the following JVM startup command line properies:

-Dappdynamics.http.proxyHost=myproxy.db.com

-Dappdynamics.http.proxyPort=80

Q1: do I leave the controller-host and controller-port values as they are?

Q2: as I am using HTTP through the proxy, no SSL at the moment, do I need to setup proxy authentication? 

       -Dappdynamics.http.proxyUser

       -Dappdynamics.http.proxyPasswordFile

Hi Ketan,

Q1: Yes, controller-host and controller-port values must be updated with actual values of controller host and port as you listed earlier:

<controller-host>mycontroller.db.com</controller-host>

<controller-port>8090</controller-port>

Q2: If your proxy is non-authenticated or anonymous proxy you would "not" need to mention/pass args for proxyuser/pass, Hope that answers
