Hi Sasidhar,
- From the shared error "The remote server returned an error: (407) Proxy Authentication Required", looks like there is any proxy configured on the Machine level or instrumented application level or network level and your proxy needs credentials.
Could you please verify and configure proxy in the config.xml for the communication between Agent and controller. You can find more information related to this in Proxy Element section link below
https://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO45/.NET+Agent+Configuration+Properties
For example -
<controller host="mycontroller.example.com">
After configuring the proxy configuration. You would need to restart the Agent coordinator service and then restart the IIS/instrumented application services. After that apply the load and then check the behavior.
<application name="MyDotNetApplicaition"/>
<proxy host="myproxy.example.com"port="3128"enabled="true">
<authentication enabled="true"user_name="MyProxyUser"password="password"domain="mydomain.com"/>
</proxy>
</controller>
Thanks
Satyam

Please do not share the config file here as this community platform. As Satyam suggested please modify the config.xml to include
<proxy host="myproxy.example.com"port="3128"enabled="true">
<authentication enabled="true"user_name="MyProxyUser"password="password"domain="mydomain.com"/>
</proxy>
Thanks,
Raunak

The error in the logs suggests that you have not provided proxy authentication information or the provided info is not correct. Can you please double check with your Network Team?
If you have access to the support system, please create a ticket directly. Otherwise, let us know so that we can share a SFTP location to get the logs from you.
Thanks,
Raunak
